We are excited to introduce Victron Click & Design – an intuitive online tool that helps you build and simulate a 48V solar ESS system step-by-step. It estimates how your system would perform in real-life conditions using actual solar data from the past year. A step-by-step guide walks you through seven stages to build your system. You start by locating the system and choosing either a Multi RS or a MultiPlus-II with MPPT as the base. Then you set the AC input, define p …

This new product from Victron can avoid those dreaded sparks. The pre-charge cable allows internal capacitors of an inverter, inverter/charger or MPPT to be pre-charged via the DC terminals before connecting the battery. This method ensures that connecting the battery will not result in arcing at the connection point. Ideal if you are an installer who does regular installs. No more light bulbs ;) …

In November 2024 Victron introduced the VRM app for smartwatches, compatible with Garmin, Apple, and Google OS watches. This affords users a new way to monitor and manage their Victron system on the go, whether checking system overviews, viewing temperature readings, or managing EV charging directly from their smartwatch.Todays sees the introduction of the latest version of the VRM smartwatch app with some new features that enable even more control, including monitoring tank levels, controlling …

Some very good news for those households that only require a 3.68kW G98 compliant inverter. To date you very much had one Multiplus-II G98 2.4kW (3kVA) option with the 4.4kW (5kVA) model and above all requiring a G99/G100-2 applications with DNO's often demanding output limits to be implemented given the G98/G99 gridcode was a combined setting.One downside of this was that a 2.4kW inverter was maybe just not enough whereas the 4.4kW and G99 application process may have deterred some given the ne …

Great news if you have been looking at a larger Victron inverter, but resisted to date. Maybe the higher price per kW compared to the smaller 3 and 5kVA models meant you delayed your decision? Did you prefer not to install a more complex parallel system, despite it being very well priced after last year's price reductions?My advice is always to keep things simple and even more so now that the 8kVA (6400W) and 10kVA (8000W) models have G99 certification. Do keep in mind parallel operation for the …
