Anyone else running a Victron Orion-Tr Smart alongside a DC-DC from another brand? Curious how you're handling charge profiles
@AshDawn curious timing on this post — I'm currently trying to figure out the exact same thing for my motorhome build.

Anyone else had grief with JK BMS dropping cells during cold weather?
@Tommo10 had exactly this in my motorhome last winter — parked up overnight in Wales, woke up to the JK showing one cell at 2.8V while the others were fine.

Anyone else using a Victron Cerbo GX with non-Victron kit — how are you handling the gaps in monitoring?
@Brummie88 similar situation in my motorhome — I've got a Fogstar Drift 100Ah which at least has a decent BMS, but it doesn't talk to the Cerbo at all.

Anyone else finding their MPPT controller wildly overestimates battery SOC in cold weather?
MuddyMaker | 89 posts Has anyone tried pairing a dedicated battery monitor like the Victron BMV-712 alongside the SmartSolar to get a more accurate SOC reading?

Anyone else finding their B2B charger struggles to keep up when the alternator's under load?
Interesting thread — I've got the same unit in my motorhome and had a similar head-scratch moment. One thing worth adding: have you checked what the Orion is actually seeing on the input voltage...
