    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    Maybe, unless you somehow reset the device either through Firmware update or removing the power then everything learnt will be forgotten and you start from scratch. Seems more than a bit backwards to me.

    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    Well that's more than a little frustrating. To me this means that everything is theoretical from the BMV and it has no REAL way of measuring SOC or anything else, as you have mentioned before, it is all decided based on the Maths. So then it seems pointless in many ways because surely you would...

    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    On a slightly different subject, I discovered today that the Venus OS fails over to different wireless networks seamlessly if it loses the connection, so that's good news. On the other hand I am disappointed that no-one in the Victron community answered my Question here

    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    Here's a shoddy (NOT BIG CLIVE) drawing of how I think the wiring is (at work at the minute), which would explain why the BMV isn't recording the Charge from the 240V Labcraft charger. I can't remember how the BMV is but pretty sure only the 160AH Alpha is on the battery side and everything...

    OK so I have demonstrated now that the Old Charger on Sylvia is capable of charging all the batteries, albeit slowly For some reason the BMV battery monitor does not see the battery as charging with this set-up The delivery from the Old LabCraft Charger coming to the New Alpha AGM 160AH battery...

    Sylvia is back from the garage having had timing and carb sorted plus two new front boots and tracking.

    Taylor's Back with a Minivan !

    I enjoyed watching Taylor's videos on aspects of his RV life when he was in a Truck Camper, either in USA or Canada, maybe both. He now has a minivan and will be interesting to see how his minimalistic build evolves
