Could someone demonstrate what should be the charging :curve in this situation:
Truck batterie - 25 foot of gauge 2 wire with a Anderson connector - Breaker 60Amp - ORION-TR SMART 12/12-30A - 2 foot of gauge 6 - 2 Battleborn 100amp
Batterie SOC at 60% as per BMV-712
ORION-TR SMART 12/12-30A setting as per BattleBorn
i start my truck.....
what voltage should i see after the ORION?
what should be the amp?
what is the curve (amp and voltage) to bring the batteries full?
I’m searching for the same answers as you, except my application is a boat. So far, all I get is the sound of crickets.....I think, however, you need to know your alternator (smart? traditional?, voltage at start and at run?). I THINK (caution here) my engine battery will show ~13.XX volts at start up and then come down to 13.XX volts while running. But I don’t know yet what the “XX” is. KnowIng this I can then set my “engine on” and “engine off” parameters in Victron Connect. I, too, have 2 Battle Born 100AH house bank batteries wired in parallel and have emailed Battle Born for the same information. They are very good at answering directly without a lot of extraneous terms only an EE would understand.. Once I know I‘ll let you know.
