I had a question for you guys.
I'm building an off grid cabin and and currently in the beginning stages of putting together my solar system, so far I've got my Solar Panels, ground mount, batteries, BMS, and 2 growatt AIO inverters.
But looking around online i really like the Victron equipment, and I'm wondering if the Quality of Victron would be worth the switch, but there's a bit of a catch from what I see.
i want to be able to use solar during the day to run the cabin, with excess solar being used to charge my battery, I can set the Growatt up this way if I've read the manual correctly, with solar priority going to the loads, the question is , would it be possible to use a Victron MPPT charge controller and a Victron inverter to achieve the same goal?
Looking at the Victron MPPT charge controller manual I dont really see a way to have solar power going to the cabin loads first before charging the battery, it looks like the MPPT charge controller cuts off solar once the battery is full, and I'd like to have my solar still powering the cabin during the day even once the battery is full.
Hope my question makes sense
Thanks in advance for the help
