Is there any option to limit the input current of the Orion-Tr Smart 12|12-30?
I probably made a mistake when I purchased that DC-DC charger. As the starter and house battery of the boat are both minus-grounded via the propeller-shaft, I figured that the non-isolated variant suffices. Hence, I took the smallest non-isolated Orion-Tr Smart which was available and that is the 30A version. However, the alternator can only provide 25A safely and besides the input circuit of the Orion-Tr Smart the starter battery also draws some current.
What can I do? Buy the isolated variant 12|12-18? Isolation isn’t actually required, but at least the current below 25A and hope that I can re-sell the non-isolated 12|12-30? Any settings which I have missed in the Orion-Tr Smart 12|12-30 firmware?
On the downside, the isolated variants do not seem to support VE.Smart Network. My house battery is also charged from two MPPT 75/10 and an Phoenix Smart IP43(1+1) 120-240V with a BMV-712 in an VE.Smart Network.
