Hello there. I'm upgrading to a larger full time class-c RV from my little Starcraft TT, and so it's time to build a new, bigger solar power system. This is my first initial draft of what I have in mind. Still need to measure length of all the wire runs to determine wire gauges. But in the mean...

Check out this video of what's happening while I'm plugged into 30A shore power at a campsite: https://www.dropbox.com/s/r4ynkuemdo01ce7/fluctuation.mov?dl=0 Full system specs and diagram attached. SCC & SmartBMS Shunt settings attached too. Here's a link to the real-time VRM dashboard...

I have the Renogy 2000Watt Inverter Charger and it's my first time using an inverter charger. I'm confused by its behavior, but maybe this is normal: When I plug into shore power, my batteries are charged to 100% by the inverter charger, but then after reaching 100% charge, the inverter charger...

Hi there. I've just about completed my first ever solar/power system build out (diagram below) after much studying and learning from folks here. I have a question about using my inverter charger with shore power while disconnected from my battery bank. Today I had the following conditions...

Hey there. I just hooked up a new system with two 170ah lifepo4 batteries (12v) with the Victron SmartShunt. The SmartShunt wants me to tell it the state of charge of the two batteries. How do I determine the SOC? Is it really just a matter of looking at the battery voltage the smartshunt...

Hi! I bought my first camper and intend to do some off the grid camping with it. Other than working on my car, I knew very little about electrical systems before this. I've been doing a bunch of research and wanted to see how far it got me in terms of planning out my own system. Today I took a...

Hello! I am outfitting a tiny camper with solar panels, a 170 Ah 12v lithium battery, and a 2000w inverter charger so I can live/work off the grid for a while. Due to space constraints and the presence of other equipment on the roof, I'm attempting to maximize power generation by using a...
