If you have 4 of the up2500 pylon battery on a victron multi plus 24v inverter what will the dip settiing be on each battery
need that buzzbar
Out of interest how much did this setup cost?
Hi, I think this system came to around $8,000 installed
The price of a simple current transformer is enormous (€1,800) compared to what it offers, and the companies that offer the warranty charge you for the inspection and say that the energy measurement sensor has nothing wrong with it. Victron Phoenix Smart 48/5000VA. In the profile picture, Cerbo GX tells me that Phoenix charges with 33A in AC.
Great video!
great video mate, well explain and appreciate you explaining in a simple understandable way
I have a battery box with the inbuilt VSR, but none of the Anderson plugs on my box are labelled. is the alternator input plug the one which has a positive going straight into the relay? this sits towards the corner of the battery if this helps.
Whats is the cost of this system fitted by you guys please
Thank you for the detailed Information i am curious about your satisfaction after using it for a while, Re these Multiplus produce high noise level and heat. Different people have different opinions about these issues I am curious abut yours. regards
Really tidy job
Just (today) installed one of these, the 3000kva, in our boat. Handles all our loads easily, including a 2000W water heating element. The only minor disappointment is that in eco mode, there's a relay that clicks on and off when it searches for a load, and with the inverter located not far from our bed, it's a little noisy. In normal mode it's fine though.
Invest in a label microphone, my friend. It'll do wonders for your audio quality.
Can the 3000 be mounted on its side
How do the cables go under the lid of the Thumper? Ours is not working.
Hi Linda, It might be a good idea to call me at the shop tomorrow. I'll help you to get the Thumper Battery box sorted.
Great 👍 video
Just wondering why are you running all the power from 1 battery and not positive from 1 and negative from the other?
Please don’t tell me you screw all that gear straight into the back fly wall ?
All i have to say is Yuck. Who drills into the cab 😂.
I found this quite useful because its exactly the set up and tech i plan to use. Thanks for putting this up. Its great to see a working system with this stuff in it. Gives me confidence. Subbed

I was told those Pylontech is not for mobile applications due to vibration etc
@@beresheeth Thanks for bringing this topic to discussion. I'm considering 2x Pylontech US5000B 48v 4.8KWh batteries and also wondering about the stationary/mobile vibration factor. I'm also looking at 2x Victron smart LFP 25.6v/200Ah batteries - big price difference! I'm finding it difficult to find good research. Do you mind sharing your research/conclusions on your approach? Thank you.
@@beresheeth @FreeYourMind : I'm currently thinking about doing something similar with the Pylontech`s myself, but I'm also having second thoughts on the whole vibration thing... There also seems to be no warranty if you don't install them in a stationary setting. Was thinking about vibration dampers or some kind of "free floating" rubber band installation, but that seems wonky as well.

Do you have to use a 1240? Will a 1225 Suffice?
1225d will work the old 1225 standard does not have a lithium profile

What settings did you set the smart shunt to for lithium ?

kann man ein plug in hybrid Auto an Wechselrichter 12V 230V 4000-8000 W Inverter laden ?
Late starter in the market - with the IDC25 do you still need an isolator from the crank battery & a solar controller from the panels to the box? Also does it charge other batteries than lithium?
Hi Darren, you don’t need to use a isolator with the Projecta IDC25 as it will switch off when the input voltage drops below 12.8v. You can chose to all so use the ignition setup which turn the DC charger off when the vehicle ignition is off. You all so won’t need a solar regulator as the Projecta IDC25 is a MPPT solar controller. You can charge an AGM with this model without any damage.
I am in the design phase to transform a Sprinter 211 cdi, new (2021), L1H1, all a little tight !!!!, but perfect for use here in Europe and exploring small towns, easy to park ... etc But now I got to the point of doing the electrical project, which I'm not used to doing, I'm a civil engineer, I understand 110 / 220v AC circuits. I wish you could help me with that part. I'm Brazilian, but I also live a lot here in Portugal, where I'm going to do the conversion. Well, I started making a spreadsheet, with the equipment, the necessary power and time of daily use, I have no intention of filling the motorhome with things, not least because it is a Sprinter L1H1, and I would like to have a simple electrical installation, but I would not like have gas inside, so I would prefer a stove with only one induction zone. To heat the water it would be a D6 truma, which is diesel. But from the calculations I made and compared with others I saw on the net, it seems that it ends up consuming a lot of energy, making the electrical part more expensive. I don't want to spend so much just because of induction. I don't know what other electrical equipment I would still need for everything to work, still using the car's alternator and an external 220v point when stopped at a camping site. In your opinion, which a good configuration sufficient to have a quick meal, with induction and stay out of the network for a day or two? Well, the result of the spreadsheet was: 220V equipment notebook - 65w - 1 hour of use - 5.4 Ah induction cooker - 1800w - 0,4 hour of use - 60 Ah 12V equipment USB - 50w - 1 hour of use - 4.2 Ah refrigerator - 45w - 8 hours of use - 30 Ah lights - 15w - 3 hours of use - 1.3 Ah water pump - 42 w - 0.5 hours of use - 1.8 Ah exhaust fan wc - 40 w - 1 hour of use - 3.3 Ah I will be very grateful if you can help me by presenting an wiring electrical diagram with the necessary equipment. I appreciate if you answer. my address is: joaolp55 @ gmail com Thanks
Agreed, with out a website link this review wont get many costumers
How much watts
Hi Matthew. Website is www.homeof12volt.com.au
What's the website?
How do you charge normal wall socket appliances eg. charging a laptop or running a blender?
Hey mate, will the VSR model charge from alternator using 12v Cig in rear without draining cranking battery?
Hi Stan, Its best to use a Anderson plug connection in the rear of the vehicle as the cig socket is only rated to 10-15amps. The battery can accept up to 20-30 amps per hour. What type of vehicle do you have?
@@alanfairhead8350 thanks for reply. I have a 2010 forester and Cig socket is already standard. Trying to get a 40L fridge plus other basic items without having to install full dual battery system.
@@stanlee6188 How many days do you want to be able to power the fridge for? Unless you charge the battery system from mains power or solar you really can't efficiently charge the auxiliary battery from the cig socket. I can put a package together for you with a 40Ltr fridge and the dual battery system if that will make things easier.
Can these run straight off your solar panels to charge battery from the anderson plugs?
1) Why not jump starting from the terminals? 2) With an isolator and adequate cabling, can I connect it through the Anderson plug to my car battery?
how to turn off?
