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

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...
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...
Hi Guys,
Been reading a few threads looking for settings.
I have a Victron Smart 12/12/30 isolated charger and the van has a smart alternator. Both negatives on the isolated smart charger are connected to ground (not sure if that makes a difference - but wanted to check).
Smart charger is...
Looking for some advice please.
I am about to change from an AGM to Lithium Battery (LithiumPro) - grateful if anyone can advise which settings I need to change on the Victron MPPT controller (via the Victron Connect App).
Many thanks.
I'm selling my Victron SmartShunt. It's a great little unit, with excellent mobile phone software to accompany it, from a reputable company.
It's in perfect working order and I've reset it to factory settings prior to removal from my van. I'm only selling because I purchased the Bluetooth...
My van has too much bloat - I’m going back to basics, reducing weight and unused, unnecessary things. A sale bonanza.
Open to sensible offers and can post to UK (maybe not the Fogstar, need to check and not the solar panel) or you can collect, or I can meet locally.
I will add photos once I...
Hi everyone
I’m about to start work on wiring the battery to battery charger system in my van and would like a bit of extra peace of mind before jumping into it.
The victron components I am using are:
Orion-Tr smart 12/12 - 30 non-isolated DC/DC charger
Smart shunt 500A/50mV
I’ve decided I...
Purchased but not used.
Also included is a 5v down stepper so all the lights work without the full victron set up
Looking for £160.00 (cost over £230)
Collection from junction 16 M6.

Hi
When I installed my leisure battery I fitted a CTEK D250SE which works perfectly. But now I want to also install an electric hook up, I am okay with getting the mains power in to the van but am unsure how to set this up to keep my leisure battery topped up. My questions are these, is there a...
This is my current set up in my 2018 Caravelle, a mess of wires of a Factory specced Eberspacher Auxiliary air heater and 2nd battery, plus a few extras fitted by the previous owner, all under the passenger seat:
This is the wiring diagram as it sits:
I've got the standard split charge...
