victron

Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum, so I thought I’d introduce myself and show off a few of the vans we’ve recently converted. We are a conversion company based in Stockport, Manchester, specializing in VW Transporters, Ford, and Mercedes vans. What makes us a bit different is that we operate...

Good afternoon, I currently have a 95ah leisure battery in the rear of my T6.1 and Victrin B2B charger supplied with its own 16mm cable from the starter battery, also Victron Solar charger, Victron Shunt and a Sargent fuse box with the charging function disabled. What I would like to do is add a...

I am installing a solar/battery system to my van I thought I would share my solution to mounting a screen to see the battery/solar status etc. This is still work in progress but I have made a surround for a Victon GX touch, this is run from a Victron Cerbo which will take all the inputs from...

I have recently upgraded my leisure battery to 2x 100ah lithium and I've installed a Victron Orion XS 12/12 50 and I've not wired in an ignition feed, so the charger is detecting when to come on from the voltage. All this works fine and I'm getting about 45amp charge when it's running. Since...

Evening all! I may be being over cautious here but..... I have a 95ah AGM leisure battery, 4 or 5 months old and changed out my Sterling b2b charger at the same time to mover over totally to Victrin except for the Sargent panel (I disabled the charger when on EHU) Anyway.... Considering the...

Hi all, Selling my Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 100/15. Purchased new from Amazon 15th July 2024 (Invoice can be supplied for warranty) and never used. Was originally intended to be installed on my sailing boat but never took it out of the water over the winter to do the work. My plans for...

Good evening all, we are currently away and after a 4 hour drive yesterday I was amazed that the leisure battery status on our Sargent panel shows it as flat with the 1 single red LED. Anyway,day I thought will leave the solar to do it's thing, and after returning from a day out panel showed all...

I am after fairly simple electrical set up as I am planning on spending 90% on sites with hook up and never more than couple nights away. I have done hours of research but struggling to get my head around the wiring and equipment needed. I am also wondering if I will need Victron BMV-712 Smart...

As per this heavily supported install thread- https://www.t6forum.com/threads/l-battery-go-large-or-go-lithium.52433/page-26 I seem to have a new problem. whilst driving approx 2 hrs motorway. Noticed LB charger to up from nearly nothing to 39%, and then no further. Further investigation I...

I’m finishing up my wiring for my T6 conversion and have 25mm^2 wire for my Orion XS 12 | 12 50A. Its a really tight squeeze and in the end I’ve had to snip a few frayed strands where they just wouldn't go into the terminal. Does this look safe? Obviously I want my wiring to be safe but also not...

Before I start buying some bits to convert my van thought I'd see if anyone had any bits knocking about After victron Dc dc 30a Mppt Smart shunt Blue smart charger

I have a Victron 100/20 MPPT controller and the blue LED for Bulk is flashing. It doesn’t seem to be charging the leisure battery. Attached screenshots of current status and recent history. Any help appreciated.

Evening all! So just got back from a recent Bank Holiday camping trip. Absolutely superb couple of days at Shambala Festival near Coventry. Our 9th year of going, for my money best festival in the UK! But I digress. One thing I was curious to see was that the Victron Solar controller (in my...

Hi People, I've just bought a new to me van. Its a T6 Euro 5 2016 Highline base van and was converted from new by "Thistle Rose". Its the first Camper van i have ever had so its a steep learning curve. It seems a pretty basic but functional electrical system from what i have researched. The...

Bought to use with solar panel but going for power bank set up so not required. Unopened in box. £35

Hello all, I am working up courage to swap split charge relay with a Victron DC to DC and Ablemail 12-2. I only currently have a 75 sized leisure battery. So was thinking of changing that too for a bigger capacity. This is all under driver seat (impacted by diesel heater dusting). I have...

I am installing a Victron Orion TR smart isolated dc-dc. Just a quick question, should the bluetooth always be switched on, I thought it would switch off when the remote is switched off. I have pin H connected to a switched live, but when the ignition is switched off the bluetooth stays active.

Hi all, Apologies, I know this probably gets asked all the time - I have emailed the garage that fit this for me but they haven't come back to me yet. They fitted the above with a new Leisure Battery and it worked great, I had the app open whilst driving occasionally (hands free) and I could...

Greetings. As I run an AGM leisure battery, and the van sits for sometimes a week at a time without moving, I want to keep the leisure battery topped up when not driving, so it’s pretty much always ready to go. I currently run a victron Orion BT non isolated. That sits on a board in front of...

Can anyone help please. We’re driving to Scotland and the LB doesn’t seem to be charging from the Viktron DC-DC. Looking at the Viktron app it says Bulk Charging but the LB voltage isn’t increasing. After a 4 hour drive I’m still showing 12v on the LB and we started at 12.1v. Nothing is powered...
