I had no idea how slick the Victron gear was until I saw your series of videos on the subject. They have a whole ecosystem.
Great video. I would've been afraid that the charge controllers would work against each other and back-feed power into one another, but then I realized that they can't because if they could the battery would back-feed power into them when the sun is not shining.
I just converted my entire system from cheap to Victron, and what a dream!
I just saw the vid and had similar observations.. Thing is, observed the volts on array #1 at about 41V and array #2 at 19V. . Same question about the back feed by the arrray #1 into arry #2 at its lower voltage maybe causing something to short out. Can anyone clarify ?
@@MegaErs123 I had basically the same thing in the charge controllers were fighting each other
very clean and clear. I noticed it because it looked identical to mine - the wiring guard. I am still in the middle of my build and watch everything I can to ensure I have not forgotten anythig.
I love the way the fuses turn themselves around so they are in the same orientation. Clever stuff! Great video though!
I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me and blinked a few times. I just rewatched it and saw the magic happen. 4:16 into the video for those curious.
At 8:27 you mention connecting to the Victron Smart Shunt. Im so glad you mentioned this tidbit- I'll use it to maximize efficiency of my two serial arrays/2 MPPT controllers.
Hey Richard Musante, No problem! Glad it helped! :)
You explanation and attention to detail is amazing. Thank you.
Hey elliot330, No problem! Glad it helped! :)
Best Victron tutorial youtube channel, beter than Victron self, greetings from Holland. After seeing your videos I switched to Victron
Great video I am bumping the voltage max and looking to add another controller and split my array in stead of replacing current controller
THANK YOU, THANK YOU ,THANK YOU .THIS IS THE SIMPLE SYSTEM I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR ALL MY LIFE .
No problem. Happy to help!
Pretty easy to understand, thanks, of course to your presentation method. Ran it to a little hiccup in using the tool to size the CC. One panel recommendation using EZ is 100/30, using detailed it’s 100/50. Fine, purchased the latter.
The problem arises in that I’ve purchased TWO of the same panels, instead of the One (intended). Using the Sizing Tool, it recommends 150/60 (EZ) or 150/85 (detailed).
HUGE Price difference !
If I just bought another 100/50, would that serve my purposes just as well, though I suppose each panel would come in through roof independently. But, it would be A Lot cheaper to buy a second 100/50.
Though, I wouldn’t benefit from the Smart Shunt, because I got an Alii. 😫
thanks for the nice video and especially a thanks for the shunt nugget, pure gold... didn't know you could network it up, they all just say you can use it to show the usage and voltages but now it really makes sense to get the smartshunt instead of a dumbshunt even though it is quite pricey.
Hey Jesper Andersen, No problem! Glad it helped! :)
Hi - I never comment on videos, but i discovered your channel this weekend - and its been an absolute revelation... i was self teaching my way through a solar design, and your videos and tools have made a lot of the 'fuzzy' areas super clear. thanks so much ! absolutely awesome job ! I'm going into my particular design with 100% confidence, where i was unsure on certain things before :)
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
@@EXPLORISTlifeyou only have 2 connections left on that distributor, where would you put the connection for the inverter, AC panel and DC panel? Could you put two connections on one nut?
@@willyum1208 you can chain Lynx Distributors together.
@@willyum1208 The Lynx distributor is only for 12V devices. The inverters 12v lines would use the first two positions ( + and -), leaving the other two for some other 12V device or feed.
Briefly and clearly illustrated. Thanks.
I found this very helpful, and have used your previous Solar Disconnect instruction video for solar at a cabin I have. This particular video will be part of my plan when adding a few 320W panels to my boat. Really clear, and concise. Appreciate you taking the time to do this.
Glad it helped!
@@EXPLORISTlife i need diagram of how to wire 2 charge controller
Thanks,I was looking for the answer for this subject, you just help me a lot, thanks 👍☮️
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
Does one of your Videos already show how to take full advantage of vehicle alternators?
We’ve got a 400a Alternator that isn’t being taken full advantage of and would love to see a video by you about such adaptations.
Thank you!!!
Great info I've seen a number of your videos I'm using 2 controller but just setting each one using the controllers them selves it's a much more frugal set up but your video is very informative thanks
Your videos are clear and to the point. I have two Renogy 400 watt arrays and two Victron charge controllers. I was wondering the proper way to set them up. Question, do I need to use the Victron shunt to make sure everything is compatible? I do have a Xantrex 3000 watt inverter charger and one liTime 300AH battery. It works with the one controller. Haven't set up the second one yet.
I need this in my life
Glad it was helpful. Cheers!
Great instructional video, as aways you make it simple. Thanks
Excellent Tutorial. Got me excited about doing more Victron Installs!
Hey, Carl Sgambelluri! I appreciate that. Thanks for watching! 🙂😀
Thank you, Thank you, I am very impressed with your teaching, I appreciate your time and effort
Hey exp1278, Thanks so much! Cheers!
Another great video, fantastic explanation as always, I've a question about 48v battery banks.
I'm setting up a 48v off grid system, using all Victron products, you've explained everything perfectly so far, very useful. but, I'm a bit stumped about balancing the batteries, at this stage I'm planning on using on using Victron Super Cell Lead batteries, I'm not not convinced about lithium yet, anyway, I'd love a video showing how to connect the Victron battery balancers, it's clear how to set it up for 12v, 48v banks need 3 balancers, given the cost of all this equipment, I'd like to get it right the first time. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a video 🙂
Extremely helpful and thorough :-)
Great video , thank you. I'm to connect 2* 100/50 right now
Super video. Thanks. One question, can you use different sizes of mppt smartcontrollers, or do they need to be the same. For example i have a 100/50 and i want to het a second array but smaller. Can i get a 100/30. Or does that also need to be a 100/50
They can be different. :)
Fantastic ....just what i needed to know
I have a Victron 24V system (inverter, charge controller, battery) My array is 9 - 400W panels for a potential 3,600 watts. I've noticed a max usage of 2,500 watts from my system and read that the controller nominal PV input is 2,400watts. Could I install a second charge controller with some of the panels as a second array to use more PV power, closer to the 3,600? Thanks
Hi Nate.
Is this the best way if you have a solar blanket connected to the system when main panels are parked in the shade?
Do the controllers need to be the same size if the solar blanket is smaller?
Thanks you
This is awesome. I will be doing this soon to my Rv.
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
Nate, I understand the need to use a 2 pole breaker between the panel and the charge controller. However don't understand why the 63 AMP instead of sizing the breaker to protect the wiring. Then go add a separate fuse link which seems to duplicate but potentially add resistance to the system, Thanks, Don
Thank you.
Excellent videos, Thank you. I did notice that you are hooking all the charge controller equipment grounds to the negative battery buss. Is that necessary?
Yes.
Great video, thanks! Can you do this with two different brand charge controllers? I have a suitcase solar panel that I will only use occasionally and I have a spare charge controller but it is a different make than the one in my trailer. Thanks again.
Just wanted to say thank you for all of the efforts in creating this content. Super helpful and the website is gold. Finally getting close to being able to convert my RV and the details you've shared go a long way!
Hi Nate, I have been following you since 2020, you have helped me with my solar/Lithium install on my Airstream. We now have a new trailer with 400W on the roof and a Victron 100/50 CC. I want to add a 400W suitcase with Victron 100/30 CC mounted beside the existing 100/50 CC like you have in this video. Can I wire the CC ground to the existing CC equipment ground, or do I have to use a junction stud?
Thank you for the video. What about victrons with Load outputs? Can you parallel those?
We don’t really utilize those in our system designs, so those can be ignored.
Great video. Is it OK to connect a wind generator to a solar mppt?
Excellent! Thanks for your video.
Been trying to figure this stuff out for ages and just found you.
Legend 👍👍👍👍🇦🇺
Nate, you are a hero! I have designed an off-grid solar system for my sailboat based on this video. However, I am confused with one thing only. The ground wire from the Victron charger/inverter (Quattro 12/5000) is going to the Lynx Distributor (sharing AC to DC?), is that the case? I hope, I get a reply. (Abaid from Nova Scotia, Canada).
That's not the case, no. Only the DC negative and equipment ground is going to the Lynx Distributor.
@@EXPLORISTlife Hi Nate, I appreciate a very swift response. Kindly let me know, how can I get a review of my design document (a Visio diagram exported to PNG graphic), and get the errors corrected? I am willing to pay a fee for this review.
That is no longer a service I offer. Instead, I recommend using the diagrams I have pre-assembled at www.explorist.life/solarwiringdiagrams and shop.explorist.life/product-category/all-products/plans-and-diagrams/solar-wiring-diagrams/
I will say, though, that the quattro 5k should REALLY be a 24V unit connected to a 24V battery bank. A 5k inverter is truly too big for a 12V battery bank.
@@EXPLORISTlife awesome, thank you. 👍
Hi, i upgrade my system from 24 to 48 volts i have now total of 12 solar panels,6 are of a higher wattage so my question is :
Can I connect two MPPTs with two different wattage solar panel banks to the same battery bank?
one MPPT with the 6 lower wattage solar panels and the other MPPT with the higher wattage solar panels.
Yep! The arrays can indeed be different (as well as different sizes of charge controllers)
Would you mind sharing a link to your DC breaker box you used here from the arrays? thanks
Go to explorist.life and look under how to wire a solar disconnect. It's listed further down.
@@KentFleshman the one used in this video is not the same one he shows in the article. This one is bigger
The exact box I showed is no longer available. The box linked in the video description is a very similar replacement.
Hi Nate, Mate, your tutorials are awesome. Nate you mention in this tutorial the need for multiple charge controls if your array exceeds a single controller. What if i have a 100/30 and increase my battery size so the i now need more than 30. Let’s say i need 60amp. Can i introduce a second 100/30 (in parallel or series) to get the required 60amp or will i need to upgrade to a 150/75? Would really appreciate your insight. I image two 30amp controllers one would cancel out the other as one would see 30amp in or will VRM allow me to override or set both units to 30amp each?
Where do you talk about mega fuze sizing feeding battery to the charge controller? Thanks.
Excellent video! I plant to install a victron 250V/60 with 5 400w panels in series. Do you have the like for the double pole brakers and the plastic cable enclosure? Thanks
Informative, additional knowledge thankz you sir...
Great video I use a redarc manager 30 but find I don't have enough solar and I've maxed out the redarc with 600w of solar panels, could I ad a victron charge controller to the system without causing damage to the redarc,batteries or the new victron?
Thank you for helping us all confidently build our systems! I have a quick question though. I'm building a system with a similar configuration. Upstream of both charge controllers, can the 2 solar arrays share the same neutral? thank you!
Nope.
@@EXPLORISTlife Pin Q&A! =)
Good info.
Thanks! 🙂🙌
Excellent! just what I was looking for Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Dude, great video.
Which will be your suggestion when I have two battery banks (both 12v, but one has 100ah and second 105ah, both lifepo4).
At the moment I have epever controller which supports one battery bank only I cannot wire batteries in series because they have different ah.
Another solar panel to second battery bank or a Epever duoracer kinda of approach?
Great video. I noticed you put the positive wire on on first and then the fuse. Can you put the wire on first and then the fuse. Where connect to the victron distribution
You show the example of pairing the solar controllers together to work/communicate with each other. I have a Victron 100/30 attached to a 190 watt panel on the roof. I also have a 200 watt suitcase panel that connects to the battery bank with an Anderson plug, but has it's own GoSolar charge controller attached to the back. Is there a way to make it communicate with my Victron components? Thanks for all the information you provide. I love your channel!!
There's not, no.
I'm interested in building an uninterruptable supply (for computers and such). Can I mix a solar charger and a line-powered charger?
Would you mind sharing what software you are using to create your wiring diagrams? I would like to make one specific to my application and components and cant seem to find anything like this. Are you drawing it in PowerPoint with inserted photos or is there actual software to do this kind of drawing? Thanks, love your videos!
Sure! I use Microsoft Visio for all of my diagrams / illustrations.
I love your videos..thanks very much..best regards . Daniel from Croatia
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
I went with series for following:
1. Biggest reason is Victron MPPT's don't initiate battery charge until output 5vdc greater than battery vdc; series charges batteries earlier than parallel configuration.
2. Can mix solar panel voltage outputs.
3. Uses small Guage wire
Fuses on lynx distributor
In previous videos you said that the fuse needs to go on first and then positive wire last but in this video you did positive wire and then fuse last. I just want to make sure I am wiring it correctly. Can you assist?
Yes I was thinking the same thing...Very confusing.
I don't think it matters to be honest what goes on first as long as there's a secure connection the only difference would be if the lug goes on first your fuse me Lee flat as opposed to putting the fuse on first it may put the fuse at an angle so I would just determine what lays your fuse in a more parallel state between the top lug and the bottom lug for better connection
I have a 2018 Airstream Interstate. The RV has 3 100 watt solar panels with 2 AGM batteries. Do you plan to have a instructional video, how-to convert from AGM batteries to lithium batteries? That would be a great help to some of us immensely.
Batteries like Battle Born Batteries are drop-in replacements. You'd just need to adjust the charging parameters of your chargers, but that's all, and that was shown in this video pretty well I believe.
Hi,
Thank you for your great videos, Is there a reason to use a fuse instead of a breaker ?
Yes. The fuse fits in the Lynx Distributor. A breaker will not fit in the Lynx Distributor.
Great videos. How do you connect a SmartSolar 100/30 and a BlueSolar 100/50? is that possible or do I have to junk the BlueSolar, it does show up on my Cerbo.
When I started making my solar power system for my van I was intimidated by the Victron`s advanced system... Now both my solar chargers went up in smoke because I did not disconnect the solar panels before connecting to battery... Not fun... But they was not good chargers and they never stopped charging my 4 battery LifePo4 bank and used constantly 20w just to stay on themselves (10w each) which might be also the reason the Never ever stopped charging no matter how full the battery bank was.
I think I will go for 2 Victron solar chargers this time. Already just bought a 1200w /WA Victron 24v inverter after my replacement on warranty 3000w inverter only deliver 250w and the inverter before that (same exact) only could deliver 10w after malfunctioning after 6 months.
Even I understood this video, great job.
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
Thnx a lot for your clear video, I want to combine a victron smart MPPT with a the not so smart smart victron Orion TR using the VE networking. What can I do to prevent the orion from thinking the battery is full and stop charging with 30 amps while the MPPT continues charging with the solar on the roof of the camper van at a low charge rate.
At the moment, there is no way to 'officially' make them communicate and synchronize their charging efforts. That said; in our recent installs, and to my surprise, I've often been getting full charging wattage from both my Orion & my MPPT's natively without having them communicate.
Unexpected result, but a win is a win.
@@EXPLORISTlife interesting, I also get this for say max one hour and then the orion goes into trickle charge. The only solution I have now is turn off the MPPT charge controller.. The victron bluetooth dongle seems to support VE networking but thats probably not going to work on the Orion
There's nowhere to plug in a bluetootth dongle into the Orion; so nope, that will not work.
@@EXPLORISTlife Did you do anything special in your settings like putting absorption time longer or different voltage settings? thnx
Hello. Thank you verry much. It's really helpfull! Is it possible to use victron mppt as a booster. For exemple i have a ebike with a batterie 48v. 25 amp. And a solar panel 100w 12 v ? I want to charge my bike while riding... let's say with a smal victron mppt. Have a nice day!
Great vid!
Would please like to know:
Can solar charge controllers have their load output connected in parallel to feed together a load?
I would like to feed one load with two solar controllers load output. The controllers are the same model/size but are not connected in parallel between them, would be only the load output in parallel.
Thank you
Very good information nice video one question how can I know the voltage input of a charge control
Excellent video! Is there any odd penalty for using different size controllers? Thanks!
No issues, no.
@@EXPLORISTlife Thank you!
My CDO kicked in for a moment when you dropped in the second fuse with a different orientation than the first one.
Thankfully, when you started to secure it you had corrected its orientation.
CDO emergency averted!!! 🥲
For those who don't know what CDO is, it's exactly like OCD except the letters are in the correct order. 😆
Nate, Once again a very informative video. I do have one question in your last video you placed the MEGA fuse on the Lynx distributor terminal first then place battery positive cable on top of it. In this video you place the positive cable on the terminal first and then placed the fuse on top of it. So does it make any difference or is it just a personal preference?
Would this be a preferred configuration to run a roof mounted system on a travel trailer that also has the option to connect a portable ground solar array?
Yep! Very much so.
Hi Nate, assuming the battery can only take a max of 50 amps charging current but the two MPPTs here output a total of 60 amps in parallel, how do you configure the max charging current to be under the limit when you have two MPPTs?
Hello Nate, Just the info I've been looking for. Just one thing I haven't found an answer to with the Smart Solar VE-CAN, With the VE-CAN and the VE-Direct connection to the CCGX can you use either the VE-CAN or the VE-Direct or must both be connected. Currently I am only able to view todays data on the CCGX. There is no 30 day History. I haven't checked the bit rate yet ,I think that should be set at 250 bit/s
Hi Nate: How can I add a second MPPT if all the fuses/posts are used in the Lynx Distributor (by MPPT #1, Orion TR SMART, Multiplus INVERTER/CHARGER, and 12V Panel)? Note: I have limited space, so it would be very difficult to add another Lynx Distributor.
That was the best explanation I've seen, good video... God bless you and your family!
Wow, thank you!
great video
Glad it was helpful. Cheers!
Hey Nate, does this setup also work if the mppts are different? For example, can I connect a 100/20 mppt and a 75/10 mppt to the same distributer?
Kind regards,
Flint
Yep!
@@EXPLORISTlife Thanks, and extra thanks for such a fast reply!
Super video, thank you 😊
Now we're talking! I love your channel! Victron for life! Can you do a multiple battery bank system video? Do I use btb 12to12/24to24?
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching! I've got a video of a system that has multiple batteries in it's battery bank here: ruclips.net/video/JMqtVBN26NQ/видео.html and all of the diagrams at www.explorist.life feature battery banks with multiple batteries.
@@EXPLORISTlife I meen lithium battery's of one sort and lead of another sort for example.
Oh, gotcha. I would never recommend mixing and matching battery chemistries/voltages into the house battery bank or having two seperate house battery banks; so I won't be doing a video over that.
The closest I'll get to that kind of video is talking about DC DC chargers when we charge our house lithium bank from the alternator which is connected to a lead acid or AGM battery bank, that'll be coming up later this summer.
Soooo clear. Thank you 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Can I plug two separate solar panels (1x250w and 1x200w blankets) into an auxiliary battery box using two Anderson connects with the two MTTP regulators?
Great video as usual. Why would I use the lynx distributer vs. the lynx power in. Big price difference.
Will have a video out next month comparing the two. :)
really great work Chad.
Hey mate, just wondering what you've used to connect the negative between the two charge controllers and the Lynx? Thanks heaps.
This came out just in time. I'm in the middle of wiring in a smaller ground mount array into my RV system. It's been great so far but I want the extra umff for the AC this summer. One thing is my original system is not victron 😲 ( ohh no lol ) nor will be my ground mount system ( 😲 really ) I'm choosing not to change everything cause of the extra expenses for all new wiring and new equipment cause I know at that point I will just put it all in one system and that would add more than what I want just for the summer time. Now to my question. Since you use a combining box prior to the charge controllers do you need one to connect the two controllers together before you connect to the batteries ? I'm not much on leaving the internet on at all times cause it comes from my phone, that's mostly why I have not changed to victron. Just a side note. Great video series.
Great! Glad it helped. Given that you are indeed using some kind of busbars of some kind for high-amp DC distribution in your system as opposed to stacking a dozen different lugs directly onto your battery terminals... your charge controllers would indeed need to be connected to your busbars in some form before heading to your battery.
Also... worth noting... the solar disconnect box isn't 'combining' anything. It is simply two breakers in one box. Each circuit passes straight through.
@@EXPLORISTlife thanks for the info. Sun is starting to rise lot's of work to get done on my ground mount today. Happy camping
This brings up my next question, how do you feel about the lower-end charge controllers? Like the ones that come with the Harbor Freight solar panels or the low end renogy solar charge controller. It seems like these really elaborate mppt controllers are the norm, is it possible to wire a sufficient solar system with a regular charge controller?
Thanks for sharing is it ok if my solar panel array 1 is connected in series and the 2nd array panels are connected in parallel and I got two different brand of solar charge controller is it possible to use ? By the way those two solar charge controller are both MPPT
I was trying to go through all what I find on the internet about the setups with multiple charge controllers and no one ever mentioned nothing about overcharging "weak ones" with "stronger ones". I even find guys who connected different types of charge controllers with different output together with wide smile. In parallel setup, those regulators will be fighting with each other and their output will not be added up as we want. I was thinking that finally...this Lynx distributor will do the job, but than I read the manual and it is just intelligent fuse hub. In solar power stations, they use something like phase regulator which switch on and off every serial connected array one after each other so they don´t fight. But nobody here mentioned that , nor comes up with solution.
Erm...thats not correct. They will all normalize to the same voltage as its dc not ac
Solar stations ive worked on and the string voltage of each array was brought up when wired in parrell. No magic tricks! Highest voltage took prefence and this would do same
Hello I have 300w and MPPT and 200w PWM can i parallel it to charge into one battery bank?
No
Just keep them separate
I have a system solar is 24v and 12 v batteries. S mppt thats 150/100. I want to serios/ partell 2/12 to 24. How do I connect a 120 panel to what item. I have 3000 inverter.
@@user-rp2rt6pq6fwhy not?
Really professional work and tutorials, enjoying ur vids, great job, thanks
Thanks so much for watching! Cheers!
Great video, of course. I will be installing a solar system with Victron equipment and already have a small 15amp Victron controller for 2 panels on the ground. I had no idea you have to connect the controller in that fashion. Thanks.
Awesome! Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
The network total power is pretty cool. How come no Battery sense? that would give you a 2nd. low temp disconnect? I am sure the battery has this feature, does the smart shunt also have a temp sensor? I am in the process of building a 280ah 12v battery box from hell. It will have two internal victron 75/15's and one external one. along with a 25amp victron ac charger, and battery sense. I can't wait to watch everything play together. My truck has 200watts (to be rewired in series thanks to another one of your videos) and a 150w 36v folding, and a 100watt folding panel 450watts total. the different voltages and locations are why I need three charge controllers. Keep up the videos you are on a roll. By box will have temp controlled heating and cooling that is why I want the 2 controllers mounted internally. That way they can move with the battery box if i remove it from the truck, If my dual fans can't cool it enough I will simply remove the lid. Way too much info I know but it gives everyone ideas about how other people use stuff.
Great instructional video.
I have a question. I installed two solar controllers in my Airstream Nineteen campervan using your instructions. The secondary solar controller is used for external panels and those manuals don't match the OEM panels specs. I also have a Ecoflow Delta 2 Max and extra battery in my campervan. My question is what switch would I use to prior to the 2nd array controller to feed my EF solar generators? There are times when I need to charge the EFs when boondocking and right now the only way do do so is to directly connect it to the EF and I would like to use the external solar connectors. Thanks in advance.
I have victron 100/30 but they don't have bluetooth all I can do is to spin the wheel to set them up, is there anything else that can be done to make them work together?
Is the lynx distributer necessary in a mobile application? Let’s say I’m on a budget, want to start with two victron 100/20 mppt controllers but also plan to scale up slowly from there.
Another great video...he does it again 👏
Hey, thanks so much! Cheers! 👍😀
Thanks for a very informative video and one that I hope will prove very useful. A question if I may. My campervan is very small and I can only fit 1 x 100w solar panel on the roof. As such I was thinking of using a bluetti 200w solar blanket as the second panel when needed. Are there any obvious downsides to this using your setup - especially as the solar blanket will not be connected at all times? Many thanks.
Do I need to use the VE direct cables? What purpose do they serve if the Bluetooth connects them all together. Are they for communication to the cerbo?
Cerbo communications, yes.
Hey how you doing buddy and I was looking at your RUclips video and question. I have the Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 100V 30 amp. And I would like to know if I could installed 200w solar panels 20v . I would like to install for panels and Siri can I do
Where exactly can I purchase the wiring channel your using in this video to keep you area clean and neat ?
