Hello,
I've got working SmartSolar MPPT 150/45, acid batteries(24V) and non Victron inverter(+ PV panels, fuses, switch). So as if the simplest offgrid...
What hardware do I need to add DVCC support at the cheapest cost to this system?

SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 and DVCC
A GX device. Cerbo S maybe?
DVCC wont really help you much with only one victron product though. Are you planning on adding some victron shunts for battery monitoring?
Thank you. Accurate explanation - due to the small capacity of my power bank and its type (lead acid) I had to limit the charging current. I could use a lot more energy during the day using the DCVV which would manage the charging current in real time, protecting my batteries. I am looking for the cheapest and simplest option to integrate such a function with the system. This is a really small and simple offgrid system - no need for more. When buying more expensive equipment, it will be more profitable for me to change the power bank to one that can be charged with high current - more benefits at a similar cost. I was hoping that some small addition to the system like a smartshunt device or something similar would solve my problem. Is there such a solution?
Adding a SmartShunt and then using VE.Smart Networking should give you some improvements, so it might be worthwhile, but still you won't be able to use DVCC.
