Good shout from @Gazza24 on the battery optimisation — that catches a lot of people out. One thing nobody's mentioned yet: check your phone's Bluetooth distance.

Great thread this. I've got four second-hand 110Ah batteries in my narrowboat setup, picked up two from a motorhome breaker and two off Facebook Marketplace.
Good shout from @PennineSolar and @BarryCrane — both valid points. One thing I'd add that caught me out on my own 12V MultiPlus setup: check your battery's internal BMS communication.

@NeilSmith the JK BMS has a low temperature charge cutoff setting that's worth checking — mine was factory set to 5°C and was blocking charging on cold mornings even though...
Really interested to hear how yours develops @DownsWanderer. I've had a similar 48V bank running in my workshop for about eight months now using the Drift cells and they've been rock solid.
