@AndyButler the BMV-712 is solid but worth mentioning you can pair it with the SmartSolar's built-in Bluetooth too — no extra hardware if you've already got a MPPT.

@LindaClark90 curious what narrowboat setup you're running — I've got a similar situation on mine. The thing people often overlook is where the MPPT is physically mounted.

@RockyTinker yeah, had exactly this on the boat last winter. Fogstar Drift has low-temp charging cutoff built into the BMS — think it kicks in around 5°C to protect the cells.

Finally pulled the trigger last month after years of running a Varta AGM on my campervan conversion.

@ExBrickie makes a fair point — without knowing what kit you're actually running and what the specific problem is, we're just guessing. That said, if this is Victron-related, VictronConnect and...

Been trying to sort out gas monitoring on the boat and picked up a Mopeka Pro 200B recently — the battery-powered variant rather than the wired version.

Been running a setup on my narrowboat for two years now — power budget's half the battle, but honestly the inverter sizing caught me out.

Been troubleshooting a ground fault on my narrowboat setup for the past few days and I'm getting nowhere.
