I finally got around to scrolling back in the "trends" tab. I only have the one Victron MPPT so I only have the bluetooth app on my phone. It only let's me graph 2 items at once, so here are 3 screen shots of what happened at sun down.
40.81 volts is wll below the battery voltage, yet it shows 0.2 amps of current at the solar panel. And as the voltage fell even lower, the current had a little boost before it finally quit. The full width of the screen is 2 whole hours. The wattage was basically meaningless, but it was trying to do something.
Here you can see the battery voltage was well over 56 volts. At 5 pm the current was pretty much bottomed out, but not zero yet. It was down to just 2 amps at 4:30 and fell under 1 amp by 4:50. The PV voltage fell under battery voltage at about 5:23 but the current didn't fully stop until after the 5:38 sample. That is 15 minutes.
Here is the PV voltage and the battery voltage together. I was hoping they would be on the same scale, but NOPE!
As the PV voltage fell under 62 volts, the current dropped drastically, to 0.2 amps. That does make sense, but it still seems odd it was pushing that 0.2 amps of current for another 15 minutes. That is 0.05 Amp Hours, or 2.8 watt hours. Can we call that even a drop in a swimming pool? Not really. The whole day totaled 5.99 KWHs. So 2.8 / 5,990 = 0.000467 or 0.0467% of my energy in that last 15 minutes.
If it lasted 5 minutes or less, I would say maybe it was discharging the capacitors in the charge controller, but 15 minutes is a long time, even at 0.2 amps. My other thought is that it is some form of graph smoothing, but I doubt it. If I look at it within a couple hours, it has much finer data and you can even see the MPPT search pulses. If I am here to catch it tomorrow, I will see if I can grab the high res graph. But yes, analyzing it like this, it is a meaningless amount of power. The panel power going in could be the power being drawn by the electronics within the charge controller to run the processor and bluetooth radio etc. And they just add that power to the output rather than admit you are losing those few watts to run the controller? 10 watts to run the controller seems totally fair. And a switch mode regulator running off the PV input to make 5 volts could still be running down below 12 volts, as this controller can also work in a 12 volt system.
