battery life on Victron SmartSolar MPPT 75/15, 15A

How can I see remaining battery on Victron SmartSolar MPPT 75/15, 15A via the Victron connect app ?


I have a EPEVER Tracer 4215 with usb dongle for app connection, and there I can see aprox remaining battery life.


is there a option on the victron app too or do I need extra devices for that ? could not find it...

You'd need a Victron battery monitor to see that sort of information on the VictronConnect app. The solar controller has no way of knowing or reporting that information.

You could also add a Victron Smart Shunt into the system to read accurate battery state of charge values. If you are using a "smart" battery with BMS, then the BMS could/should deliver such information as well.

What kind of battery is it?
