My installation is 2*MPPT 150/70 , one GX color control, and 3 * MultiPlus 48/5000/70.
We had a lightning strike this morning and the GX color control is now failed.
The MPPT s are not charging the batteries.
Is there a possibility to get the MPPT s to work on temporary basis until I get a replacement for my GX
If I have to replace it can I replace it with a Venus GX or cerbo GX?
Hi @Ruireis
What kind of batteries are you using? if you are using 'non managed' batteries (lead-acid or drop-in lithium) you should be able to safely run the MPPT's
do you have 'smart' MMPT's? (with bluetooth) than you can use your phone to connect to the MPPT's and monitor / configure them with VictronConnect software:

Your distributor or a local dealer can help you best with replacement of the Color Control, a Cerbo is a nice upgrade indeed.
Where are you located?
Thank you very much for your prompt reply.
My system is working find now and charging ok.
It was too dark and early In the morning.
My GX color control is dead no monitor.
Is the Venus GX compatible with MPPT 150/70 and MultiPlus is there instructions how to replace GX color control by Venus GX?
Go for Cerbo GX (without the optional display). Slighly more expensive than Venus GX, but more capable.
