[Screenshot_2025-09-22-02-03-25-055] I’ve been exploring the virtual devices some more, the switches do look good, to be fair. Then, I noticed a significant reduction in D-bus round trip times after the ~37 update, or better said, a return to the low 1ms averages from ~25 with higher values with …

Another observation: the virtual battery does not allow setting a ’time to go’ longer then 1 x 24 x 3600 seconds (1 day) while the BMV Smartshunt goes up to 10 days - 1 second. Good find. It looks like I missed a zero on that. I’ve fixed that to become part of the next release. And there is no …

[image] dfaber: I’ve been following dbus · victronenergy/venus Wiki · GitHub , which doesn’t define an info field for the highest cell voltage. That doesn’t make sense, both are required for safe operation. And IIRC, the normal (blue) battery nodes are rather sparse in addressable settings, fo…

While you’re at it, did you see the discussion about virtual devices instance numbering in relation to prioritizing hardware vs virtual devices as primary data source systemwide, and possibly the ability to free the boat page from those systemwide priority settings altogether, by introducing a boat …

Yes this is quite interesting indeed. As an example I created the following setup: A BMV Smartshunt as Battery Monitor for the Boardnet Battery (wired to a Multiplus II) The BMV relay set to ‘Charger mode’ (3 sets of 4 x 12V 250Ah GEL Lead-acid batteries) A flow that switches the Multiplus II (ES…

Indeed, not available yet in v3.70~37, hopefully this will be integrated soon. [Screenshot_20250922_223312_VRM]

Nearly perfect!!! great Job BUT : yesterday I created the same virtual switches , and today I see placeholders [image] and in the device the new types are missing. one more idea: is it possible to make the setpoint more generic? like by adding a unit for setpoint for switching heatpump when PV …

After updating to 3.70-37 my solar connected to the multi RS was only producing around 18watt when it should already been more than that. Checked all my node-red node’s feeding in to grid was on allowed and PV was enabled. I’m not running DESS. Just ESS with battery life. I often disable charging i…

Thanks @mpvader! I noticed the peak shaving changelog item in the prior beta. Is it still on the roadmap to allow users to disable peak shaving completely?
