Off Grid EV charging dump load

Hi,

I see NAZ has some kits for EV charging from solar surplus and I'm was wondering if anybody has set up the same capability for off-grid? 

I'm wondering if this can be set up the same or similar to how hot water dump loads are setup? I can use midnite classic aux or BMS aux which allows triggers on float state, voltage or SoC.

The NAZ on-grid kits use clamps on L1, L2 and a smart meter that works in conjunction with the EV charger. Anybody know if there is a similar device setup for off-grid?

thx!

    I've not yet looked over these kits.  This is, however, something I'm planning to build.

    Our cabin is off-grid, 24-volt bank, 16 or so 345-watt panels.  I'm working on converting my 2001 Subaru Outback to a 48-volt high-performance golf cart system and will see about giving it some of the extra juice from the house solar.

    Rather curious to see other setups.
