Really interested in this thread — just getting my cabin setup sorted with a Victron MultiPlus-II and a Cerbo GX and I've been wondering whether to go down the local logging route rather than...
@CharlieCampbell66 curious whether your BMS ratings are actually matched between the two Fogstar packs — I made that mistake paralleling batteries in my cabin setup.
@QuietMaker really curious about this — what software stack are you running to pull the Victron data?
Has anyone managed to get a Fronius inverter working on the AC-OUT of a Victron Multiplus II without constant headaches?
I've got a cabin setup with a Multiplus II 48/5000 and was planning to add...
Really interested in this thread — I've been wrestling with a similar problem for EV charging at my cabin.
Really useful thread, this. Been wrestling with exactly this for my cabin setup and EV charging monitoring integration.
@SprinterLife curious what you ended up swapping to?
Been lurking on this thread with interest — I've been toying with this for my cabin setup but haven't pulled the trigger yet.
Quick question for those running it: how much of a faff is the initial...
@MelKing83 curious about this too — does the Flexboss21 handle parallel stacking natively or does it need additional comms hardware like Victron does with the VE.Bus?
Just to add to what @ZFS_OffGrid said — worth double-checking your panel array voltage doesn't exceed the 100V input limit on that controller.

Interesting thread — I've been eyeing up a budget 12v setup for the cabin as a secondary system alongside my main Victron kit.
One thing worth factoring in: what charge...
Been wondering whether to add this to my cabin setup for a while. Currently just relying on the Victron app via Bluetooth which is fine day-to-day, but I lose all historical data if I don't...
Has anyone actually measured the real-world difference by temporarily rewiring to parallel instead? I've got a similar Frankenstein situation at my cabin — three panels from different batches...
Just finished wiring up my little off-grid cabin and I'm now wondering if it's realistic to add a slow EV charge from the same system.
Got a small solar cabin running a 5kWh Fogstar Drift LiFePO4 bank with a 1.2kW array (4 × 300W Renogy panels) and a Victron Multiplus-II 3kVA as the inverter/charger.
Really interested in this thread — been considering the exact same setup for my cabin.
@VanJim raises something I hadn't thought about.
