Has the hardware changed in the Orio-Tr? Wont charge!

Made some more DCDC 24-12-24V Lithium boxes to a customer. The products are as usual, but now the newly purchased Orion-Tr 24/12-9 won't charge the 20ah Superpack...


Has the hardware or whatever changed? It works if a put a generic load on the output terminals of the Orion-Tr but if its connected to a battery (With or Without a load) its doing absolutely nothing.

Hello philipr,

it seems you selected the wrong device for this usage.

Victron describes it in their data sheet as follows:

'Not intended for battery charging.

Please consider using an Orion-Tr Smart for battery charging.'
