Victron power management
Core house electrical aboard Sophisticated Lady is newly installed and mostly Victron — the inverter/charger, monitoring, and charge control that keep solar, lithium bank, and house loads working as one off-grid system.

What we run
- Victron 48V Quattro inverter/charger (5 kW class) — runs 24/7/365 as the main house inverter/charger. Not shown in the panel photo above.
- Cerbo GX — monitoring hub for the Victron VRM stack (visible in panel photo).
- SmartSolar MPPT 150|35 ×3 (visible in panel photo).
- SmartSolar MPPT 100|20 ×3 (visible in panel photo).
- Orion-Tr Smart 12|12-30 DC-DC (visible in panel photo).
- Spare 12V inverter (~1 kW) held in reserve — separate from the Quattro.
- Lithium house bank — brand and amp-hour rating TBA.
- Dual 48V Balmar alternators (~5 kW each, ~10 kW charging) driven by the Beta Marine 85 hp. Balmar is parallel charging gear, not Victron — but it’s part of the same off-grid charging story.
- Solar array 3,200W total (Rick, 14 Aug 2026): 2,400W on the hardtops + 800W on the side rails.
Panel gear locked from Rick’s 15 Sep photo + Mateo boat facts. No invented SKUs beyond what’s listed.
