I have a SmartSolar 75/15 with the load output. It is connected to a lifepo4 12v battery. I am building a battery heater using 12v silicone heating pads and Normally Closed 5c temperature controller. I want to connect it to the load output of the SmartSolar 75/15 and use that as a master switch to turn the heater pad circuit on and off. In the load output configuration I see you can control when the load turns on/off based on voltages, but not based on temperature. I have a battery voltage and temperature sensor on my VE Smart Network. Can the load be turned on/off based in temperature? If not, can this be added? I can see the Smart Solar has a battery charge cutoff temperature in the battery configuration, so I dont see this as being to hard to extend to the load output configuration.
No
Why should anybody spend money on programming, buy a thermostat fot 5 €.
Next guy wants an alarmclock…
What programming would someone have to pay for? You obviously don’t know what you are talking about, if you have nothing to add or don’t understand the question best you keep your fingers silent…
There are more and more reasons to have the load output controlled by a thermostat, especially with lithium batteries, like my use case, to turn on or trigger the battery warmer relay based on temperature. Why would I want to introduce additional failure points in my circuit, especially cheap $5 parts? Hopefully someone has a better response or Victron will take this as a feature request…
