@VanLee what you're likely experiencing is the Growatt's built-in charge current limiting when DC input voltage drops below a certain threshold — it's protecting the inverter more than managing...
Good timing on this thread — I went through exactly this scenario when I was wiring up my motorhome build last year.
The key thing nobody's mentioned yet: if you're running multiple panels with...
Good points all round from @DucatoProject and @ExFirefighter. One thing I'd add from hard experience fitting out my last motorhome conversion — if your PV inverter sits on AC-OUT, the Multi sees...
@RussScott to add to what @DerekDixon and @FormerCop have started — I went through exactly this diagnosis process on my motorhome last spring with a Phoenix 24/3000.
The bit people miss is...

@LisaHunt88 Looks like we've got two cut-off posts here which is frustrating — @RustyTinker you too!
The key thing people miss with VRM remote firmware updates on a...
Good thread. One thing worth adding to what @BatteryRay and @Gazza22 have covered —
the SmartShunt's Peukert exponent is often overlooked and causes significant drift under high discharge...
@RussWebb @NQ_Sparks the application point is the crux of it, really.
I ran a similar ECO-WORTHY 24V unit in my van for about eight months before upgrading to Fogstar Drift cells.
Good points from everyone here. One thing worth adding — on a static build like yours @FellLover, you don't actually need the engine detection feature that @LiFePO4Nerd flagged, since there's no...
@EcoFlowMaster this is exactly the scenario I sorted on my van build last year.
The solution that's worked flawlessly for me is a Victron Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC charger between your...
@LiFePO4Geek done exactly this — Fogstar Drift 100Ah with a single 100W panel running an Alpicool C15 in my van for two summers.
Reality check:
Compressor fridge typically draws 3-5Ah averaged...
@Martin1962 good timing on this build — I went through exactly this with my Sprinter conversion last year.
The DCC40S handles it elegantly: it blends both inputs simultaneously rather than...
Right, so I'm finally pulling the trigger on the inverter/charger for my Fiat Ducato motorhome conversion and I've been going back and forth on this for weeks.
@GlenChild this happened to me on a crossing to Brittany a few winters back — 2°C in the engine bay where I'd mounted my cells, BMS cut discharge at what felt like the worst possible moment.
Worth...
Been through almost exactly this with my van build — installer went quiet and I was locked out of VRM for months.
Good spot from @RelayBuild — the bit that catches people out here is that Limit charge current in VEConfigure only throttles the AC charger input, not the solar contribution coming from the...
