Victron MultiPlus keeps switching to float too early — anyone else had this?
Had this exact issue with my static earlier in the year. The MultiPlus was dropping into float at around 80% according to my BMV-712, which obviously isn't ideal when you're trying to top up after...

Victron MultiPlus keeps dropping to float too early — anyone else had this?
Seeing this on my static caravan setup too — MultiPlus-II 48V with Fogstar Drift lithium cells. Turned out my battery capacity setting in VEConfigure was massively underspecified, so the charge...

Multiplus 2 AC Out 2 Relay with assistants cycling on/off
Been having a frustrating one with my static van setup and wondered if anyone else has run into this. I've got a Multiplus II 2x120V (yes I know, long story) paired with a Cerbo GX, and I've been...

Victron MPPT keeping dropping to float too early — 200Ah lithium not even close to full
Having the exact same issue with my static at the moment and it's driving me daft. Running a Victron SmartSolar 100/30 with a 200Ah Fogstar Drift lithium and it keeps calling float at around...

Inverter ENERGY 12v 3000va réglage courant de pointe au demarrage petit moteur de compresseur
Bit late to this thread but it's relevant to my static caravan setup so jumping in. @RKE_Builds that 6-8x figure is eye-opening — I'd always assumed my occasional trips on startup were a battery...

Anyone know if a 200W panel is enough to keep a 12V 100Ah battery topped up over winter?
Really relevant question for me too — I've got a similar-ish setup in my static caravan in North Yorkshire and winter performance has been a proper eye-opener. One thing worth adding to what...

Swapped out the old Victron for a Sterling on my narrowboat – worth it?
Interesting thread this – coming at it from a static caravan angle rather than marine, so take with a pinch of salt, but I've been wondering about similar crossover questions with my own...

@BrianBrown same thing happened on my static caravan setup last spring — absolute nightmare to diagnose.

Anyone else finding their 12V system struggles on grey January days even with decent panel wattage?
@FrankMurray I've got a similar setup on my static caravan in North Yorkshire and January is genuinely miserable for it.

Anyone else running a Victron MultiPlus on a static van? Struggling to size it correctly
Been trying to work out the right MultiPlus spec for my static caravan setup. Currently running a 48V system with 400Ah of Fogstar Drift lithium, fed by 800W of solar on the roof.

What size inverter do you actually need for a garden office?
YorkshireCamper | 234 posts Slightly different use case here (static caravan rather than garden office) but the principle's the same.

Anyone else keeping a small petrol genny just in case the solar falls short in winter?
@SimonKelly that Yamaha is worth a look — hadn't come across it before actually. My situation's a bit different as I've got a static caravan rather than a garden office, so I'm always a bit...
