That Victron info display took a couple of minutes for me to figure out just what all it was telling me, but WOW what a great system you have put together. We are really enjoying our solar system and the invertor you sold us, but it appears we are still in the stone ages compared to your dual Victron Invertor set up along with your big battery bank. Nice Job and thanks for the great explanation of your system, you really have a great understanding of just how well your system works. We are boondocking at a new location in the Sierra Mountains and all has been going great, but we have several partially cloudy and rainy days coming up and we may have to fire up the generator for the first time since Quartzsite if the sun doesn't cooperate over the next few days. Our biggest issue may simply be we need more batteries to get through the smoky and cloudy days.

Very impressive...I am no expert but it boils down too, you got POWER!!! nice video Gary 👍

Hi Gary. Just realized I was on my own personal channel when I commented earlier. Now will let it play on this channel, too!

I have a Victron Multiplus II 120V/50A 3000W inverter/charger that I'm in the process of installing in my Class-A motorhome that is a single inverter/charger that can do split phase. This inverter was specifically designed for 50A Split-phase RV's and when I'm plugged into 30A or less it drops down to single phase setup running in parallel. I only have two AC's on my RV and no fireplace or dryer, so I think that having 3000W inverter should work fine for my needs. I only have 400Ah of LiFePO4 batteries in my bank, so 3000W inverter is about right for this setup. I would think you'd want double the battery bank size if you have two 3000W inverters in a boondocking situation. I like your tip about reducing the battery charge rate to preserve battery life. My Inverter came preprogramed to charge at 120A, since my batteries can handle up to 200A, but I plan to drop the charge rate down to 70A to help preserve my battery life. I was not aware that charging the batteries fast was an issue as long as you were not exceeding the recommended charging current limit. I imagine reducing the charging rate will also be good for the inverter/charger as well to not charge at the maximum charge rate of the inverter. Good tip! Very good video BTW, I really enjoyed seeing how the system responded under different configurations. I was surprised that the inverter didn't use all the available AC current available from shore power, before it choose to begin power assisting. I would think the inverter would run up to the current limit set and only assist when current requirements exceeded to set limit. Curious.

More power, Gary! Great set-up and demonstration, Gary. We have a Victron inverter. This is like Greek to me, but, thankfully, Bob understands. Haha.

Excellent real-world demo, all videos should be done this way.

On an inverter.....my shore passs through and I get 120 50a on leg 1 and 2. I'm in boondocking....2 inverters. You can do 6000w total. 3000 each inverter. On shore it's 120x50x2 or 12000watts

Hi Gary, this video was incredibly informative. I have a unique system I setup but have not yet had both inverters on at same time as i wanted to be certain I wasn’t going to mess anything up. I have 2 Victron inverters one is multiplus ii 12/3000 2x-20 the second one is a 24/3000. Yes, I have 2 battery banks, one 12v and one 24v. I have read that to stop Victron in parallel the unit must be same units. Which mine are not. Would your configuration work for me?

Hi Gary, I am boondocking this week in the forest south of Bend, OR and the haze from the smoke resulted in very little sun yesterday and it is raining today so only getting about 320 watts right now. I am at 43% (of 630 amps. battery) so waiting to see if and when I have to start the generator. LOL

Your videos are very informative, detailed and fun to watch. SW of the US is really hot in summer. Now, with your dual Victron inverters, are you able to run your AC while driving the road? What is your engine alternator capacity (recommended) to charge your 800amps? Lastly, what is your sweet spot amperage 12 v batteries for your goal of camping in 30 amp pedestal or occasional boondocking? Thanks

thanks COOP the WiSeNhEiMeR from Richmond, INDIANA ...

Hi I saw this video from tho victron inverters butt how it comes that you have so low from your Pv panels and what pv panels tho you have because I have this whit 12 412 w pv panels and I splitting this in 3 fase inside a inverter 3 phase right away I think this is much better for me and I think also for you butt I am living in Belgium with a big Volvo bus thanks on advance

Hi Gary, I love your video. I'm curious about how much you can pull through your inverters. I saw video on another channel talking about an amp limit through the inverter but I can't find any documentation in the Victron manual for this model or others. I was wondering if you might be able to do a video without your AC and pull from just your battery bank and test the limits.

There are inverters that do split phase in one inverter, they tend to be cheap chinese inverters that don't allow for multiple inverters acting in concert or aren't UL listed so can't be used in many jurisdictions.

Nice video Gary , I'd love to see how you wired the inverters ? Each getting their own 1 hot leg ?Thnx J

Dear sir Thank you for sharing this I’m wondering what’s the batteries cable size you put in your system

Gary... would like to speak with you about the programing steps to get them both working correctly...

With a multiplus II, could it take over 9Kw from shore via L1 and L2 in same manner as a pair of Multiplus?

Gary, great video. I want to do your same setup with two MP2’s in split phase. Thank you for showing us how this works while on shore power. How does it work if you are boon docking and you are not running solar or a generator but have a big battery bank. Do you still get 50 amps potentially on both legs? I have been told you only get one inverter. Is that true? That does not sound right.

Wow. That's some sort of current you are pulling. Ha ha how thick are your main leads coming off your battery bank ?

Hey Gary, thanks for the video. I noticed that when you loaded the split phase configuration files you still had the input switch set to parallel, this would mean that the inverters are expecting split phase but one of them is still getting L1 when it expects L2. Does that inverter just reject external power and invert from the batteries until you flip the switch to give it L2? In my mind the proper procedure would be to completely disconnect external power, then load the Split phase configuration file, then connect the split phase external power. But that appears not to be necessary… Thanks again for the video, I’m running a lowly Quattro 48/5000/120 in a much smaller rig, so I haven’t had to research running “dualies”… yet.

In parallel mode you only get one leg from one inverter? Is that how these units work?

Which Batteries Are You Using? WOW ThatIs a Lot Of Power!!

What does it do if you're only running the master inverter?

Nice video- thanks! What would happen if I had a 240 v 60 hz appliance I wanted to power from battery/inverter with your system? Would I need a separate 230 v inverter (I believe you can program these European models to output 240 v 60 hz)? Or would I need to send the your 120 v inverter output through aVictron 120/240 auto transformer to step it up? Thanks!

Aims 6000watt inverter takes split phase in and outputs split phase. 18000watts surge maximum. How do two Victron 3000watt inverters, in split phase, handle constant current over 3000watts each and NOT draw from the batteries?

Would the new Victron Multiplus II do the same thing?

12v system.. 560A at one point😬

Fatastic way to show and explain so many things. You answered mystery I'm trying to crack and solve for almost a year.. Thank you for help and sharing.
