Re: Norcold n180.3 discontinued
A 100 amp hour LiFePO4 can be bought for less than $300. A 200W solar suitcase for less than $200. The chest type fridge we installed on a slide sells for less than $300. We also bought a small, lig…3 -
Re: Different Battery Voltage shown in Victron components?
My guess would be a voltage drop from the VE.Bus Smart Dongle. Could be wire size or a bad connection somewhere. I had a situation where water got into an inline fuse holder. It resulted in corrosion…1 -
Re: Low voltage from rooftop solar panel - looking to confirm diagnosis
Voltage from a solar panel should be higher than the battery rating. A typical voltage will be over 20V's when in sunlight and not connected to a controller. Have you checked the voltage coming …1 -
Re: Lithium or a Generator ?
Agree with the two posts above. We went with two 100Ah LiFePO4's a while ago, but if I were to do it today, I'd go with a single larger LiFePO4 of at least 300Ah. This past winter I upgrade…2 -
Re: Low voltage from rooftop solar panel - looking to confirm diagnosis
That 5V difference is between the solar panel output and the battery. I believe it uses the open circuit voltage (Voc), not the maximum power voltage (Vmp). The mppt monitors the Voc before any curre…3
