Please return to the Brief slide displaying the current in amps for the battery!
Just like it was in release 3.55
Thx!
I tested this but it seems itâs all amps or all watts, only amps for battery is not available I think.
Another adviser
Change it and see what happens!
Enjoy
Do you see the difference between the screenshots?
Itâs showing amps for all, he wants only the battery in amps and the rest in watts
Yeeesssssssss!
Amps live, come and go in a battery, but not watts.
This makes it convenient to track the current loads in amperes for the battery.
This was flagged as a bug and got âfixedâ, unfortunately. I second the request to reenable the âbugâ to displac AC power as Watts and DC power as Amps.

I would like to see both amps and watts, the amps in the slightly smaller grey font like how it was in v3.55, and below that watts in the larger white font, matching the style of the other watt numbers. There should be enough space.

Iâve set electrical power display as current (amps) but solar is still showing as watts
Is that expected behaviour?
There can be no discussion here!
In batteries, you need to control the current in amperes!
Battery capacity is measured in amperes, but not in watts!
Watts for housewives who dry their hair with a dryer are in loads.
So return to how it was before!
Stay on 3.55

As a sailer I understand you.
But for almost all the people with a home battery, amps mean nothing.
They only think in Watts.
But regardless, its all noted and understood and weâll look into this - thanks for flagging this

Hi, Matthijs!
Iâm glad you can hear me!
As an integrator, I always train the client and indicate the control of the current strength in the DC chain. Because it is very important.
And they can always see the watts they understand in the loads.
Thanks.
Being able to select either watts or amps is useful depending on the user preference.
But of course important that all DC loads change to watts or amps, then can be useful comparison.
After years trying I completely gave up on the hope ever to be able to convert a sailer from amps to watts as measure of power

Actually you need to control the tension in volts.
Volts result in Amps.
If you want to charge slower, lower the charge voltage and not the max charge current.
Because internally the charger works with the voltage to steer the current.
Technically that would be AmpHours, but now Iâm nitpicking

Voltage for lithium batteries is not informative.
There is no direct depends, it is non-linear.
For both states charge/discharge.
It must be seen, but an assessment can only be made at the boundary values.
But amperes must always be monitored.
If you know what I mean.
Battery Amps (& Voltage) must be monitored during charging and discharging, I fully agree there.
Those two separately can be more important than the Watts.
For a Lithium or LFP battery, the voltage canât be directly linked to the SoC, thatâs true as well.
Specifically for charging, the control element of the Amps should be the Voltage (contrary as that may seem).
Am currently (re-)building my âSoC / Charge Limiterâ Node Red flow that I use to limit charging my batteries higher than a certain SoC (usually 90% in my case) to avoid unnecessary charge wear.
My Fronius PV inverters can be throttled directly in Watts, to properly limit a Victron MPPT the max charge voltage needs to be manipulated.
Double so if âDC-coupled PV - feed in excessâ is enabled, as that disabled the DVCC Charge Current Limiter.
Can we please stay on topic and advocate for the display of motor power in amps on the boats page
(and elsewhere possibly)

Itâs enough to just vote if you have nothing to add.

Vote all the way on the top left of this topic. With 130 views and only 2 votes it just you me for now. I donât think people even know about voting to be honest.
