With all due respect, I'm a bit confusd. Your config starts and ends with power supply and I'm not sure what EMS stands for in this context. I would think something like Shore Power-->ATS-->MultiPlus-->120V Distribution Panel would be what you are after.

With all due respect, I’m not sure what exactly you are asking, but I will share my thoughts in general. In my MH, I disabled the BIRD relay so my house batteries will never charge from the alternator unless I engage the Boost button on the dash as @FilterGuy mentions. I haven’t seen the need...

Merry Christmas everyone! The pic below shows the current measurement of my Victron Smartshunt when my Xantrex Freedom Marine 25 charger/inverter is float charging my 280AH LFP battery. The battery is installed in my motorhome and there are various small DC loads that run all the time. The...

That's fully charged for SLA.

For what it's worth, the app just reads the data from the BMS. It's most likely a BMS thing. I trust my Victron shunt reading more than my JBD BMS reading. My JBD BMS tripped out on overcurrent one time and zapped my BMS SOC reading. My Victron SOC stayed true.

Here is a good link that got me started: https://github.com/KinDR007/VictronMPPT-ESPHOME Here is my config: https://github.com/PeppermoonGarage/VictronMPPT-VE.Direct-D1-Mini I used a D1 Mini v4.0.0 (WiFi enabled) with a 64x48 OLED display and a power shield so I could use the 12v power from...

If you like to tinker, you can use a D1 Mini with ESPHome to connect to your devices and host a web page through your router. You could do the whole thing for under $10. I can post more info if this would be of interest. I'm sure there are of the shelf solutions as well. The D1 Mini web page...

Did you top-balance? The BMS will do a tiny balance for maintenance purposes. An initial top-balance is a requirement, IMHO.

Welcome to the forum. Did you top-balance your cells?

27 Series Marine battery box, about $10 as shown here: My Build.....

Welcome to the forum. Do a search on here, there is a lot of information regarding those topics. Personally, my 12V/280AH/150A-BMS battery starts my 5500 Onan generator just fine. I'm also using a non-lithium rated charger without issue - this will depend on the charging specs of your go...

I'm not sure how your RV is setup, but I just unplugged the blue wire to the BIRD (Battery Isolator Relay Delay) relay and that disabled the alternator charging in my Holiday Rambler MH. I can always plug it back in to enable alternator charging if needed.

++ on the headless Raspberry Pi I would add that the Pi power is powered by USB (micro or C) so it can run off DC with the proper common adapter. I don't have to run my power hog inverter in my RV for the Pi to have power when I'm off-grid.

Are you sure it's LiPO and not LiFePO4? LiPO is typically used in RC cars.

You really need to do a proper top-balance. It's been covered here a million times. If you need to, buy/borrow a proper charger to do that.
