Energy meter missing (MRS)
Hey @Smudge, looks like your post got cut off there mate! Did the forum eat the rest of it? 😄 Guessing from the thread title you're seeing an "Energy meter missing (MRS)" alarm on your...

Consumption and Solar Graph is showing the same data always
Good shout from @CrispyRigger. One thing I'd add specifically for the Victron setup — double-check your system voltage setting in VRM under the installation details.

Insulating a timber frame cabin on a shoestring - where do I even start?
Great shout on the floor, @BrianBrown — massively overlooked. One thing I'd add from bitter experience: don't underestimate cold bridging through your timber studs themselves.

Growatt MIN 4200TL-XH AC-coupling with MultiPlus-II 48/6500 ESS during grid outage
Good points all round. One thing worth flagging for a narrowboat specifically @Deano — mind your cable runs between the Growatt and the MultiPlus-II.

Wiring a 200Ah lithium bank under the van floor — condensation and vibration concerns?
Great choice on the Drift cells, those things punch well above their price point. One thing I'd add that hasn't been covered — thermal mass and cold soak.

Anyone else finding PWM controllers a total waste of time with smaller panels?
Jonno25 | 47 posts @AshHermit Completely agree - the difference really shows on overcast days doesn't it?

Anyone else had their JK BMS throw a low temp charge fault in winter even with cells above 5°C?
Yeah, @Ken1999 I had exactly this with mine last autumn. Worth checking what temperature sensor position you've actually got in the JK app — the default low temp cutoff is often set to something...

Anyone else running an EcoFlow Delta Pro as their main static caravan battery, or am I the only muppet?
Jonno25 | 47 posts @EcoFlow_Nerd Definitely not the only one! I ran a Delta Pro in my static near the Brecon Beacons for about eight months before upgrading to a proper lithium rack setup.

Anyone else running Victron on a narrowboat or is it all just 12v chaos down there?
Just chiming in here — narrowboats are a brilliant use case for Victron actually. The MPPT + MultiPlus combo handles the whole "engine charging + shore power + solar" situation really...

Anyone else using a Raspberry Pi to log Victron data locally without VRM?
Jonno25 | 312 posts | 🔋 Yorkshire Dales @JulieEvans yes, been doing this for about a year on my off-grid cabin setup with a MultiPlus and a couple of MPPTs.

Cerbo / Raspi 4B startet sporadisch neu
Yeah @FrostySocket don't leave us in suspense! 😄 While we're waiting — @BayTim, @PeteGreen84, @VivaroProject — worth checking a few things in the meantime if you haven't already.
