This system would be much better if it displayed total discharged amps, not percentage left.

Chris WAS GREAT. But he's moved on and his replacements are far less qualified and clear.

Running a Victron Cerbo GX with associated GX 50 display. Does the Balmar smart shunt have CANBUS output? Or can I link the MC-618 data via the bluetooth dongle, and have it recognized by the Cerbo GX's Bluetooth feature? Thank you Chris.

I recently installed the shunt and display on my RV which has two LifeLine L16 AGM batteries, Sterling charger and TriStar Solar charger. My RV previously had a Xantrex LinkLite for 10 years but I finally came to understand why it kept getting out of sync. I also put a shunt and gateway on a webserver UPS I built out of two old AGM Diehard Platinum batteries and a SureSine. The SG200 is a great product for a number of non-marine applications. One thing I really think is missing is a summary screen showing SOC, volts and amps.

I already have a Victron BVM and its related battery shunt installed on my sailboat house bank. I'd like to add the MC618 and the bluetooth dongle. Will I need to install the Balmar smart shunt? If so, can I install it in addition to the existing BVM shunt or will the two be incompatible? Thanks.

Richard, There are no issues installing the SmartShunt in series with the Victron Shunt, but you need to make sure that the SmartShunt is the closest to the battery. We are making impedance measurements, and it won't wok well doing that though another shunt.

The problem I have is the app will not find the mc618. It only sees the shunt, display and gateway. Numerous power cycles and no luck. Would be great if it worked.

you have to run a smart cable from the regulator from the shunt

How is the MC618 connected to the network? I don’t see a smart shunt connector on my regulator so I would like to know how it receives data etc.

If you only want to program the regulator can you connect the bluetooth dongle directly to the regulator?
@OldinMariner
@OldinMariner 2 жыл бұрын
no because the regulator does not supply voltage to the bluetooth dongle, it can only get it from the shunt

You might as well market it also to mobile home and 4x4 users. Also, a dealer that ships worldwide would be in order.
