Is anyone running a travel kettle as a workaround? I've seen some rated at 500–750W marketed at campervans — wondering whether those would actually sit within the 24/800's...
Jumping in as someone also running a tiny house setup — I've had similar head-scratching moments with Victron readings not matching up.
One thing nobody's mentioned yet: are you checking whether...
@Rob1963 interesting about the current sensor — but can I ask a daft question first? Has anyone ruled out the phase rotation being off on the incoming supply?
Had this exact issue with my setup in the tiny house last summer and it drove me absolutely mad trying to figure out what was happening.
Mine turned out to be the battery temperature sensor giving...
Been lurking here for a while and finally have a question I can't find a clear answer to anywhere.
I'm planning a fairly ambitious setup for my tiny house build — it's going to be grid-tied but...
@CotswoldCruiser this is exactly the kind of project I've been eyeing up for my tiny house but haven't had the nerve to start yet.
Planning a small garden office pod (about 14m²) to work from home full-time. Trying to decide whether to go fully off-grid or run a hybrid setup with a grid connection as backup.
Really useful thread — I went through exactly this when setting up my tiny house system last year.
One thing nobody's mentioned yet: shading becomes a much bigger headache when mixing wattages.
Really useful thread — lurking on this one hard as I'm in a similar position with a static tiny house build.
Quick question nobody's addressed yet: what's your actual shore power supply like on...
@VoltTom really interesting to read this — I'm not on a narrowboat but running Victron SmartSolar in a tiny house setup and the winter low-light performance genuinely surprised me too.
Quick...
@RelayAdventure curious what non-Victron kit you're trying to integrate — are you talking battery BMS data specifically?
Has anyone actually tried this with the GX device acting as the central arbiter — specifically with a Fogstar Drift on one phase and say a Pylontech stack on the other?
Mate, this is exactly why I'm paranoid about my tiny house setup. Before I connected anything, I labelled every single cable with coloured tape—red/black for 12V, then different colours for...
Those frost patterns are stunning, @GemmaCooper86. I've got a similar polytunnel situation here and there's something about that crystalline layer in winter sun that makes the whole tiny house...
