Yes.

No-one going to comment on the standard of the wiring? OK then. I'm all for people having a go, but some of what you've done there is so bad it's not funny mate, please get somebody competent to help you out...

Funnily enough, I wanted a stud to join some +24V where I've added the Orion. I wanted something with a cover, and struggled. So printed this with an M8 bolt. Give me a shout if you want the files :)

I think it will be good mate, but as above, put ferrules on the wires - especially thinner ones.

OK. Just because a circuit is fused at 10A, doesn't mean that current will flow. Add up what all of the bits actually are - e.g. each USB is 1A approximately. Lights are very low, heater fan 4A

It's an earth bar, that would be external, but yes, for domestic electrical. The holes will take a 16mm2 wire, and each wire has 2 screws. So, could be worse I recon. Won't get an inverter wire in though, hence my why 150A.

Why do you think it needs 120A?

Oh yea. Lol.

Hi, I can't find the option in the app to disable charging - where is it? (Orion)

That's what I've done, just thought that it's probably possible to do it without the relay because the H/L seem quite clever. No, the orion is being used to charge the engine 24V from the hab 12V when the engine isn't running.

I have 12V in, 24V out. I did wonder if I could directly connect my 24V D+ signal to DISABLE the charger... Using a 24V relay as it stands.

All I can tell you for sure is the box for my IP22 smart charger says 5 year warranty. I'd get in touch as above and explain the situation :)

Cool. So how much and where do I send it? 🤣

Do you have an idiot proof "How to", or better still please take my money and post me things that work lol. I currently have the Pi set-up and working well monitoring BMV/Multiplus/MPPT

This is to charge the engine 24V battery from the hab 12V

I had an Orion arrive this week for the same as @SquirrellCook I am controlling with a D+ relay, to turn it off when the engine is running to stop a loop.

It's not on mine, is that because I'm RPi?

Hi, I have a charger as above for sale. It's this one: https://www.onboardenergydirect.co.uk/shop/Victron-Blue-Smart-IP22-Battery-Charger-24V---16A-3-Output.html#SID=300 For charging 24V batteries from the mains. Still has 3 years warranty. Any offers around £150?

Really? That doesn't seem right at all. Definitely a fault I would say.

Ok. The victron is probably going to work out cheaper as we can get 0 VAT. And that's Bluetooth lol
