    Victron inverter complaining about low battery when there isn't

    I've got a Multiplus II 48/3000. Since a large storm the inverter won't turn on, it simply lights up the low battery light and it stays lit. My voltage on the terminals is 54v and I also have 54v reported by the Victron apps, so its clearly not that. Is there anything else I need to check? Maybe...

    Briefly shorted a cell, but it seems to be the strongest?

    3 months ago I put together a 16S pack made up of EVE280K cells for my electric boat. My JDB 300A BMS has two power leads going in and out, and while connecting the leads to the negative most cell, the other lead briefly touched the positive of that cell. Now it was a split second and my...

    JBD BMS not balancing?

    Mind if I ask how you added the switch to the active balancer, and if you have details on the voltage activated relay as well I'd really appreciate that!

    JBD bms switches on and off continuesly - param "FET ctrl" - solved!

    I'm away from my panels at the moment, but my installer came to collect one to build some frames for them and sent me this picture of discoloration on the top panel in my stack. Any idea what could have caused this and if it's a big issue? Will the panel still work and still supply full power...

    Converting my Catamaran to electric motors

    We think alike. I'm planning on using 4 victron 100/20 mppt's 1 for every 2 panels.

    Converting my Catamaran to electric motors

    I may have a backup petrol outboard as a last resort... As for the panels, it's 8 panels, but nearly 14.2 square meters of panels! Here's how that looks:

    Converting my Catamaran to electric motors

    Thanks Reini. It needs a fair amount of work to look that good again, but I'm happy to put in the effort. And thanks for the recommendation on the supplier. I'm happy for all the technical help I can get, but I'm planning to live aboard, so I'm not looking to share ownership. I've grown quite...

    Converting my Catamaran to electric motors

    A quick introduction here to myself and my upcoming project. I'm Patrick, originally from South Africa, but moving to Croatia soon where I've bought a modified 1976 Catalac 9M catamaran: This is a 4 year old picture, the boat isn't anywhere near as clean and shiny at the moment, but it'll get...
