Been watching this closely for my narrowboat build.
@MickDavies had exactly this on my boat last winter with a smaller inverter, but I've read that the Multiplus 2 3000 has a PowerAssist feature that might actually be your friend here — have you...

Going through something similar on my boat build right now, actually.
Really curious about the orientation side of things — has anyone experimented with tilting panels more steeply for winter?
I'm planning a cabin setup and keep reading that a steeper angle (closer...
Really interesting thread — I've been lurking because I've got a MultiPlus-II on a narrowboat and want to avoid this exact issue.
One thing nobody's touched on yet: have you checked your VE.Bus...

Quick question though: which smart...
Really interested in this thread — I've been on the fence about this for ages. Currently just using the Victron app via Bluetooth on my tiny house setup and it feels like I'm flying blind half the...
@WonkyMender had this with my narrowboat setup too. Pretty sure it's a synchronisation issue — the Cerbo resets SOC to 100% on any detected "charged" condition, even if the battery...
Has anyone mentioned Rewild the Planet yet? Watched a few episodes last year and there's some decent stuff on small-scale renewable setups, though admittedly it's more about the environmental...
