Vertical for better heat dissipation? Or something else?Before final installation. My chargeverters will be converted to vertical orientation and painted white.

ThisComplexity leads to unreliable.
More things, means more things to fail.
And if they all rely on each other to function. One failure kills everything.
I prefer simplicity and redundancy.

And thisIm a programmer. Newer cars make extensive use of canbus and similar networks. When they work, they are great. When not they can be a pia.
Unless you have the software and tools to reflash modules, there is not much you can replace, controls wise.
Does my battery bms need to be able to communicate with my inverter? No. Does my inverter need internet access. No. Does my refrigerator need to phone home? No.
If EG4 needs remote access to my inverter, I have the wrong inverter.
This is my biggest pet peeve of some of the cheaper equipment (not talking about EG4 stuff).And screen will be rotated 90° for correct orientation.
Keep putting out the great ideas...I'm going a step further.
All conductors will exit the bottom. (Cool side)
And screen will be rotated 90° for correct orientation.
Luckily the breaker is already correct.
I'm just adjusting it to what it should have been, all along.Keep putting out the great ideas...
Very interested to see how this works, vertical will be best for me as well, not sure how much work will be involved in rotating the display and/or controls.I'm going a step further.

Plenty of the V1.Is there a teardown of the V1or V2(might be too early) online anywhere?

I have to do it when I get to that part of the build.I actually thought of rotating the screen after I posted the photo above.
When I get some free time and everything else on the list has been done (yeah that will happen)...
Low, low, low prio ^^
Doesn't look that hard for the V1 anyway, looks like there's enough slack in the control/display cable to allow it to go through a hole in the front panel, then you could easily mount it to a 3D-printed cover/mount that would rotate it 90 degrees. Now I'm looking forward to my V2 delivery even more!I have to do it when I get to that part of the build.
Otherwise it will never happen. lol
Yep, got the email and placed my order. Supposedly, email recipients will get 1st stock but we'll seeCurrent Connected just sent me an email indicating the V1 are in stock!!!!
