Thanks, I've been waiting for these to come available after seeing them on OffGrid Garage. Is it expensive for what it is?I dont think this has been mentioned before but for those looking to connect Victron kit to a RaspbPi this product has appeared on the market.
Its a fully isolated 4 port hub for the VE direct ports.

I paid €37 including p&p. They were on back order for a long time 2 months maybe but it arrived this morning.Thanks, I've been waiting for these to come available after seeing them on OffGrid Garage. Is it expensive for what it is?
I guess that is why they have the cable shown linked to the item? I notice that has different JST connectors each end.Also bear in mind that the supplied JST connector on the 4 port Usb pcb is a different size to the JST connector used by Victron. Victron use 4 pin JST PH connectors whilst the PCB uses JST XH connectors.
The pinout is different too, its not one to one, gets the old grey matter going when your making up your own leads!!I guess that is why they have the cable shown linked to the item? I notice that has different JST connectors each end.
It is indeed. I always make up my own VE.Direct cables (The VE.Direct to USB ones are different. I find the DIY ones a touch flaky so reserve those for testing generally).The pinout is different too, its not one to one, gets the old grey matter going when your making up your own leads!!
