Has anyone looked into automated ventilation with a thermostat controller? I've been considering this for my own setup — basically a couple of DC fans wired into my Victron system that kick in...
@BoatLouise Error 80 is an internal fan failure on those units if I recall correctly — is yours actually overheating or just throwing the error without any thermal symptoms?
@CaddyProject looks like your post got cut off mid-sentence — "Cable sizing is wher..." — can you finish that thought?
Been lurking on this thread for a while and finally decided to chip in. I've been looking into exactly this as a way to offset some of my EV charging costs — the grid bills are eye-watering at the...
@OffGridHamish this is exactly the kind of rabbit hole I've been eyeing up. Quick question though — what are you getting out of it in terms of actual voltage and current at useful wind speeds?
Been wondering the same thing actually — I'm in a similar position with a small off-grid setup and trying to figure out the right battery sizing.
My situation: I'm primarily interested in keeping...

Has anyone actually looked at whether the battery temperature sensor is the missing piece here? I've been wondering if the Orion-Tr Smart is making charging decisions based on ambient temperature...
Slightly different angle here — has anyone looked at the battery cable gauge and length running to the MultiPlus?
@24V_Geek what's your daily load like in kWh? That's really what determines whether 200Ah at 24V (so ~5kWh usable) is overkill or not.
For context — I've been trying to work out sizing for EV...
Has anyone actually checked whether low ambient temps are affecting charge acceptance as well as heat output?
Has anyone managed to reduce the idle draw on a Lynx Shunt + Cerbo GX combination? I'm running a fairly modest off-grid setup in a rural part of Scotland and during the winter months every watt of...
Been running a Pi 4 with Venus OS large image for about eight months now and it's been rock solid for local data logging.
Been scratching my head over this one and wondered if others have hit the same wall.
Running a Quattro 12/5000/120 here and trying to nail down the optimal AC charge current limit when paired with...
