ESS - DVCC / Battmonitor - was stimmt denn nun?
Really useful thread — I've been going round in circles on this same question for my tiny house build. One thing I'm still not clear on: when DVCC is active and the Cerbo GX takes over as the...

Victron BMV-712 showing different SOC to my BMS — which one do I trust?
Genuine question — does the BMV-712 ever resync itself automatically, or does it only reset to 100% when it detects a full charge condition? Asking because on my tiny house build I noticed the BMV...

Narrowboat solar setup – struggling to keep batteries topped up on cloudy days

Anyone else had issues with JK BMS dropping cells offline during high discharge?
@SamWhite worth checking your cell-level internal resistance readings in the JK app — if one cell is even slightly higher than the others, it'll sag harder under load and trip the undervoltage...

Anyone actually saved money going second-hand on lithium? What's the risk?
Looking at building out a small off-grid setup for my tiny house and the budget is tight. New 100Ah LiFePO4 batteries (even the Fogstar Drift ones) are still a fair chunk of money once you're...

Error Code: #76 - Network misconfigured

Leisure battery keeps dropping overnight even with solar topping it up during the day
@HiluxConvert this is exactly the kind of thread I needed — I've got a similar nagging doubt about my setup in my tiny house on wheels.
