Hoping someone can help here, perhaps having had the same issue with the same or similar vehicle. We installed a Victron 12v 30A DC-DC non-isolated charger into a motorhome built on a 2022 Peugeot Boxer with smart alternator. We’ve installed many DC-DC chargers, quite a few on vehicles with...

Hi folks A request for info from someone, and I’m unsure of the answer as I’ve never tried it. He wants to control two batteries with JK BMS using the same Can Bus. He wants the inverter to control various things. I would have suggested a Multiplus but he wants to go a different route. Anyone...

I have both the Victron Smartshunt as well as several Juntek smart shunts. The Victron is some cool kit, very accurate and works well. At a fraction of the price, the Junteks were great too. No Bluetooth app but you could mount the wireless display anywhere in your van where it would make most...

Covered in another thread, we recently took delivery of and tested capacity for cells sold as 420ah. The cells in question tested out at 242-244ah, so basically less than 60% of stated capacity. This is the thread: 420ah Cells We're now beginning the process of obtaining a refund. We're trying...

We've just installed a Victron DC-DC 30a charger into my daughters van. I'm surprised that it doesn't look after the starter battery, my motorhome has a Votronic DC-DC and previously had a Sterling B2B (both of which keep the starter battery topped up). What do Victron owners do to keep their...

Has anyone actually tried these guys? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002529653237.html I'd be tempted just to see how close to capacity they are. 420ah in my rig would be .... nice But TBH they are very new and their store name looks a bit like the ID supplied by AliExpress. Also can't...

Hi folks I thought I'd share the results of our first two tests of cells purchased from Shenzhen Luyuan (Amy Wan). We wanted to know three things: What are the individual cell capacities and how evenly matched are they. What is the capacity for a a reasonably high-C - in our case this would...

Hi folks For those that have actually run both a low current and a high current test of the same cells, how different were the results? So far I've found that good quality cells will give me similar AH, testing for example 14a (0.05C) vs 160a (0.6C). In my case the low current test was done on...

Has anyone actually experienced corrosion caused by a common negative (neutral) using the chassis? I know the theory that a DC-DC (B2B) charger based on common negative using the chassis instead running negative cables could cause some corrosion. Of course, this could only occur under very high...

Hi folks I'm curious if this is quite common. We decided, partly out of curiosity, to check out a few Alibaba sellers of cells. We've received a set of 4x300ah cells a few weeks ago which have tested out at 285ah (four tests including high current at around 0.5C and low current at around 0.04C...

Am I right in saying that the Daly BMS has a bluetooth option and a droid app, but no support for IOS? If so, does anyone know if they have plans to release an IOS app at any stage?
