Any ideas or suggestions please? We don't seem to have a local Victron engineer, and I'm struggling to get support from our local distributor...we have a multiplus, solar charge controller, but no dongle.
We installed new 125Ah leisure batteries last week (not tested prior to installation by local electrician), and they don't appear to be coming up to full charge very well. They are coming up to full charge at the usual rate when charging with the generator, but not when charging from the solar panels. They are not dropping charge excessively overnight. This morning, the charge level continued dropping long after sunrise, until at least late morning, even with very little draw on the batteries.
Voltage from the PV to the batteries measured at approx 30V (Battery voltage was 12.9V). Unable to check voltage at battery terminals atm.
We were at -63.4Ah at 2:43pm this afternoon. All 12/240V appliances etc turned off for 30 minutes, and then we are at -59.99Ah at 3:15pm. Less than 60 minutes later, the batteries were fully charged!
Any ideas what could be occurring please?
