Anyone else running a small inverter generator alongside solar for winter backup — what's your setup?
Rodney3 | 847 posts @CliffSpirit good shout on the EU22i — rock solid bit of kit. I'm in similar latitude territory (North Wales) and run an Ecoflow Delta Pro as my main buffer with a Yamaha...

Anyone else had grief with their Victron Multiplus cutting out under heavy load?
Been running a Multiplus 12/3000/120 in my off-grid shed setup for about eight months now and it's been mostly brilliant, but I've started getting random shutdowns when I pull big loads.

Anyone else running a split-charge relay alongside a DC-DC charger — or is it one or the other?
Been scratching my head over this one for a few weeks now. I've got a 2019 Ducato-based van build with a 200Ah lithium (a Fogstar Drift 200) and I'm upgrading from a basic VSR split-charge setup...

Anyone else using a Raspberry Pi to monitor their off-grid setup? Sharing my Node-RED dashboard build
I've been running a small off-grid solar setup at my cabin in Wales for about two years now — 400W of panels, a Victron MPPT 100/30, and a 200Ah lithium bank.

Anyone else had grief with inverter charger sizing for a static caravan setup?

Anyone else had their JK BMS throw a low temp charge fault in winter even with cells above 5°C?
Been scratching my head with this one for a couple of weeks now. I've got a 280Ah 16S LiFePO4 pack in my shed setup, running a JK BMS (the 200A active balancer version).
