I have (had) a similar problem, Bluetooth range.... In the end, and to avoid any soldering I went this route: https://github.com/Olen/solar-monitor A RaspberryPi, a basic install - a few 'copy and paste' scripts, and now I have data in my home assistant instance. Seemed the simplest route all...

Some very helpful comments, Thank you - it shows its more complicated than I envisaged: I assumed both Charge Controllers would be happy (be it, with less amp-age) - and I didnt consider my main battery higher a higher settled voltage (not that I know what it is, my EcoWorthy is unpredictable)...

I did think that, but it seemed a bit old school.... ?

Who's doesn't want to capture a unicorn? :ROFLMAO: I get your logic about charging rate, which is why I was thinking about a blocking diode (link) inline on each feed from the battery to the inverter. To stop any of the other batteries voltage reaching the other battery - isolated somewhat as...

Thats the bit I'm trying to avoid - plus the extra 30ah will come in handy (for free) as the raspberry Pi im using for monitoring is chewing through more than expected :( hmmm, unless I run the Lead acids on its own panel just for the rPi4... Thanks for the new thought pattern!

I think I have an idea on how to charge some spare Lead Acids along side my (new) setup but lack the expertise to know what components I'm talking about, so please bear with me whilst I explain my theory and get some wording wrong! After reading that you shouldn't really mix battery types, and...
