@PhilJackson @Compo makes a fair point — the other thing worth checking is your battery state when it cuts out.

Reply from JackieCrane: @WattLiz one thing worth looking at that nobody's touched on yet — have you set the "tail current" parameter in VEConfigure?

Great thread, had almost identical grief with my own 12V bank last year. @PennineCamper one thing worth checking that hasn't been mentioned yet - are your battery cables all the same length and...

Hey @HMK_Sparks, great project! One thing worth flagging that I don't think's been mentioned yet — if you're planning EV charging from this setup, have a serious think about your DC bus voltage...

Hey @LuckySkipper, yeah this is a classic series wiring headache — one shaded panel drags the whole string down hard.

JackieCrane | Posts: 412 @PanelBuff one thing I'd add that hasn't been touched on yet — the Cerbo really comes into its own once you start setting up the generator autostart logic.

Really useful thread this. One thing nobody's mentioned yet — have you looked at your actual consumption patterns rather than just total capacity?

@ThistleTel nails it — even squeezing every watt with MPPT has its limits. One thing nobody's mentioned yet: have you looked at your consumption side rather than just generation?
