Thanks guys . Breaker is on . Pulling out the Iota to check fuse. Not easy!

Yes the kill switch was pulled out. I traced wire from Iota to fuse panel. It’s connected right next to battery wire at top of panel, so I think they are interlinked. Both wires had power when kill switch pulled out. I need to check power out of Iota. I’ve heard power will be less than 12 volts...

I hooked up to shore power overnight with no increase in battery level by morning. How do I check if Iota is working?

Refer is sold.

Thanks Ckent for your info. The AGM battery is a three stage charge. After watching a blog, video, I learned that the Victron Smart Controller app, under History shows a Graph with a 3 stage charging profile,indicated by the 3 different color tones on the Graph. I believe the white tone is bulk...

I'll call lifeline on Monday. There website says a 3 STAGE CHARGING is suggested. But my MPPT shows only a aborbtion and float specs. The bulk rate and absorbtion are the same 14.4 volts, maybe that WHY the bulk rate doesn't show on the MPPT.Thanks for the help Vic. Rich

Thanks , I'll check it out.

Hi Guys. My solar system is complete now. I have an ALI Battery monitor. It's kind of basic compared to the Victron unit. I've set perimeters for 220 AH, 100% charge, assuming I have fully charged batteries. How do I actually know if there fully charged? ..... My Victron MPPT Smart controller...

That's exactly right Vic. Thanks again. Thank you Patrick. Rich

Sounds great , yippee.i will send pictures when completed. Thanks Vic and Patrick for my education, I couldn't have done it without you. Rich

Ok. I'm so close. MPPT negative to negative buss bar. The inverter has an external switch. Do I still need a kill switch? The original FWC kill switch , still works off the camper battery connection.

Hi guys. This is the third version now. I’m hanging in there. What do you think? Aili Battery Monitor

I’ve eliminated the bus bars, and went directly to the battery post for better connections. Check out the new picture

I’m trying to get this picture to upload in the proper direction

Sorry I will work on the picture

I’ll try the picture again

Thanks Patrick. Check out the new modified version. Thanks Rich

Here’s an updated drawing

The diagram is a picture of the system. It is mounted on three-quarter inch by 13” x 13” ply. It will screw to the back side of the bench seat, right next to the batteries , sorry for the small pictures, it wouldn’t load otherwise

Thanks guys for the info. I've got all the parts now. I've removed some cabinetry to get to the 1314 surepower. Yes Ruck and Roll, it is the surepower I'm replacing and not the Iota.There are two terminals on the surepower for each of the two battery's, truck and camper. I'm removing the truck...

I did get the remote toggle switch. I haven't started the wiring, waiting for more parts and nicer weather. I'm not sure of the wiring for the remote switch. I may contact you later on that. Thanks for the help Vic. Rich

Ok. In keeping the iota, does the original wiring stay the same? Then hooking up the ARC , One side to truck battery, other side to camper battery, both positives? Thanks for all the help guys. Rich

I'm in the process of switching out my 2008 FWC iotato to a blue sea # 7622 ARC. Does the + wire from the iota go to house terminal of the ARC? Does the truck battery wire relocate to the other terminal of the ARC? There is also a plug end from the iota , that I assume plugs into the...
