    Note that Victron is absolutely nowhere near a top of the line products company, the way that Outback, MidNite Solar, Magnum, Schneider, etc happen to be. They are nicer than most of their made-in-China competition, sure, but that really isn't saying a lot, to tell you the truth. As a matter of fact, Samlex makes a better product IMO, and their product is slightly cheaper: https://www.solar-electric.com/samlex-evo-2224-inverter-charger.html

    DoD= depth of discharge= amount removed from that battery   SoC= state of charge= amount remaining in that battery
    So, 0% DoD= 100% SoC, 25% DoD= 75% SoC, 50% DoD= 50% SoC, 75% DoD= 25% SoC, 100% DoD= 0% SoC
    A/C= air conditioning AC= alternating current (what comes from the outlets in your home) DC= direct current (what batteries & solar panels use)

    Solar hybrid gasoline generator, 7kw gas, 180 watts of solar, Morningstar 15 amp MPPT, group 31 AGM, 900 watt kisae inverter.

    Solar roof top GMC suburban, a normal 3/4 ton suburban with 180 watts of panels on the roof and 10 amp genasun MPPT, 2000w samlex pure sine wave inverter, 12v gast and ARB air compressors.

    Looked at the Amazon link for the reviews and saw the price. I paid less for my Schneider Conext SW 4024.

    Victron is a very good product but probably not easily serviced here in NA. I have quite a few clients using them in Australia.
