@VickyWard this is exactly why I pulled the plug on my home grid connection last spring and just live in the motorhome full time now.
Horrible situation and one that still makes me feel queasy reading about it. Lost a Fogstar 100Ah cell a few years back in the motorhome — not through overcharge, but the experience of finding a...
@Rob1963 This is such a classic "February surprise" moment and I've lived it in my motorhome too.
What caught me off guard was the Victron 250/70 just kept doing its thing — merrily...
Same thing happened to me last spring with my Honda EU22i after it sat in the motorhome over winter.
Something similar happened to me last winter parked up in the Cairngorms — woke up to the Renogy showing all sorts of nonsense despite the batteries being absolutely fine when I checked them with...
@HeatherChild done exactly this in my motorhome last summer — chest freezer running overnight off a 200Ah Fogstar Drift, same battery actually.
The honest answer is: it depends entirely on the...
@Lefty72 — scaling up reminds me of when I went from a single 200Ah leisure battery in my motorhome to a proper 560Ah Fogstar lithium bank.
@Midge52 this took me ages to figure out on my motorhome build last year.
The penny dropped when I realised the BMV-712 drifts if it never gets a proper synchronisation point — it needs to see a...
What got me was the PowerControl setting — spent an embarrassing afternoon convinced my Honda EU22i was being strangled by the Multiplus until I realised I'd left the input current limit at 16A in...
@GaryParker97 Ooh this one takes me back — spent a whole wet weekend in a layby near Inverness trying to figure out why my current measurements were all over the place on my motorhome setup.
The...
@SaltyTinker your post did get clipped, but I've been down this exact rabbit hole with my motorhome setup so I'll chip in anyway.
The thing that tripped me up for weeks with Node-RED and VRM was...
Same thing happened to me last winter in the motorhome. Woke up on a frosty morning in the Lakes, opened the JK app — nothing.
@VanHolly mismatched panels are basically my whole story 😄
Running a very similar cobbled-together situation in my motorhome — picked up panels at different times, different wattages, one's even a...
Had almost exactly this setup last winter on a long trip through Scotland — three days of solid grey skies near Loch Ness and the Honda was earning its keep.
One thing I'd add that nobody's...

This rings very true from my motorhome days running a similar combined setup.
