Is hooking fridge temp up easy enough to do?
I will have a go at the graphs when I get a min.
Thanks Wayne
Welcome to the world of the Ruuvi sensor!! A 4 in 1 Ruuvi sensor for the fridge is around £35, Bluetooth, easy(ish) to install. You'll then want another for outside, the waterproof 2 in 1 is a bit more expensive, stick it behind the fuel flap. I've just picked up another internal one for 'in van' temperature.

That you spending more of my money Wayne??
And I thought my I want list was getting shorter too
BTW am liking the new emojis
Even put in a special puke emoji just for the T7
In fairness I can only blame @TallPaul_S and @DellmassiveFFS

@TallPaul_S , I cannot for the life of me remove the boxes for AC Input and AC Loads from this screen! Can you remember how?
I gutted the power supply out of my Sargent unit too a few years back, and installed a Victron 25A charger in its place and used the digital inputs on the Cerbo for feedback to indicate when certain items are on or running as per the pic.Think I will need your help when it arrives.
Most of the new equipment will be mounted on that board that will live beside the LB.
The victron MPPT is going where the existing solar controller is in the rear cupboard beside the Sargent.
But it’s easy to run cables from here to the LB.
I’m retaining the Sargent for the fuses for the whole 12v system but I will disable the charger on it and fit the victron one I’ve bought.
The victron charger will be hard wired and I will just need to plug the cable from it into a socket to charge the LB when on EHU.
I’m also hard wiring the EcoFlow 800w charger in there to quick charge my Delta 2.
The 2 cables from these will be clipped up and easy accessed from the main cupboard below my sink.
I’m installing a sub and amp under my drivers seat too as well as my reverse camera.
I can’t wait to get it all fitted.
A banging off grid set up with the 360w victron solar panel.
Cerbo has just taken an update, still got the same number though?!
I don't think you can. The only AC stuff coming in for me is my EHU charger and that just shows as a DC on current.
I’m sure I read @Dellmassive mention setting the Orion xs voltage so it’s not drawing 50a to start with.
I’ve had a read through some threads that popped up with a search and can’t seem to find it.
I’m off in the camper next week and haven’t tested the DC-DC charger yet.
How do I adjust the Orion and what to ?

Sadly working today Gord, nowhere near my van, I'm sure someone will jump in to help before I get home at 6. Piece of cake to change, reduce to 30amp seems to be the consensus.
I'll see you right later if you turn out to be 'Billy no-mates'!!
Go into the Orion XS.
Then settings then change output current to 30A (or whatever you want).
Thanks will give it a go.
Is it best to leave it on 30A or have it climbing?
If your cable size is big enough you can leave the input at 50A
I’m also not sure if my 68 plate startline has a smart alternator?
It’s 16mm I’ve used for SB to LB
So should be fine to leave at 50A input?
Yes, it should be fine. How long is the cable run?
