Simple solar generator setup for small off-grid cabin
Been down this rabbit hole myself when I kitted out my wee cabin up near Loch Tay a couple of years back.

Anyone else finding it harder to get decent 12V leisure batteries lately?
Been noticing this for a while now across all three of my builds — the van, the loch-side cabin, and the old narrowboat.

Been there with a Fogstar in the van. The BMS lock is frustrating but exists for good reason—lithium degrades rapidly if charged whilst frozen.
