It is likely that the solar panel isn’t providing more than 85w or so of power, due to curvature and non-optimal sunniness. The most recent Victron graph shows that the batteries went to float 2 day… (View Post)

The bolded text misinterprets the solar charger’s voltage during active charging. It’s only the resting voltage which can show you the S.O.C. While charging — pushing current into the battery— the S… (View Post)

@webers3 That phantom 11.3v was probably due to the tiny current which powers the “red fuse is blown” LED in the WFCO. The LED is usually shorted out by the fuse, but when that’s blown a trickle curr… (View Post)

A "monitor" which does not include a current-measuring shunt is rarely reliable. Merely measuring the voltage is not enough. You mention have a Victron (which is not a shunt) - Is that a s… (View Post)

We use around 500wh/day with our 12v fridge and miscellaneous lights. Our 200Ah of batteries last 4 days without any solar - i.e., a shaded campsite. You might expect about half of the rated generat… (View Post)
