Fitted my solar (100w panel Victron MPPT 75/15 with bluetooth) from last year's Cali to this years (2011 SE). All fitted fine but getting some odd results.
BTW much prefer the old style app display to the new one...
Despite current Sahara type sun not reached over 75w max (hit 105 or so max on same set up last year):
And I'm sometimes showing 0 watts despite showing bulk charge mode.
Also again despite full sun control panel not showing above 12.7 v and generally 80%.
SE circuits all seem fine - checked all as below and all good:
+ continuity between front and rear batteries.
Rear fuse.
12.6v at rear cig socket rising to 14.6 or so on 240v EHU and with rear battery disconnected.
Same 14.6v at rear leisure battery when re-connected and EHU on.
On EHU CP shows 14.6v. Left this on for 15 mins and then CP shows 100% with voltage dropping off gradually from 13.1 down as you'd expect. 10 mins later at 12.8v.
After disconnecting EHU I replaced fuse in solar and app showing absorption phase with correct read out of 12.8v on battery and giving solar output as 0w 21.02v and 0 amp
Lastly I closed app - put on a load of 4 amps (fridge + lights)), reconnected app and still showing 0w but app and controller light both showing bulk phase?!
Any ideas? Seems to me a charge controller blip??
I'm sure last years app never showed 0 watts in daylight/sun??
