This a high specification Victron and Fogstar mobile off grid system and is able to charge from Solar, AC hook-up or DC from the alternator.
If you wish to swap out items, please see: Panel options for our panel options and Battery options for our 12V batteries.
You can make changes by adding the bundle to your basket as individual parts, once you have done this please contact us to ensure that all items are compatible before purchase.
NB: all mobile installations are bespoke so you will need to discuss how this will be connected with your installer.
Multi-functional
The MultiPlus is a powerful true sine wave inverter, a sophisticated battery charger that features adaptive charge technology and a high-speed AC transfer switch in a single compact enclosure. Models range from 800VA to 5000VA per module.
Unique PowerAssist feature
The MultiPlus will prevent overload of a limited AC source. First, battery charging will automatically be reduced when otherwise an overload would occur. The second level will boost the output of a generator or shore side supply with power taken from the battery.
Uninterrupted AC power (UPS function)
In the event of a grid failure or shore or generator power being disconnected, the inverter within the Multi is automatically activated and takes over the supply to the connected loads. This happens so fast (less than 20 milliseconds) that computers and other electronic equipment will continue to operate without disruption.
Virtually unlimited power thanks to parallel operation
Up to 6 Multis can operate in parallel to achieve higher power output. Three phase or split phase operation is also possible. Please check our datasheets to see which models have paralleling, three-phase and split phase capabilities.
The Fogstar Drift 12v 460Ah Leisure Battery provides an incredibly powerful energy storage solution for motor movers, caravans, nautical applications, home energy storage and solar panels.
All of our lithium leisure batteries come with a JBD Battery Management System (BMS), Bluetooth, a built-in heater and a 10 year warranty as standard.
As a Fogstar customer, you'll also get the use of our fantastic Fogstar Drift App. Our App has been custom built to connect directly with the BMS, allowing you to manage and maintain the health of the battery at all times.

The Lynx Power In contains a positive and negative busbar with 4 connections for batteries, loads or chargers and a ground connection. It is part of the Lynx Distribution system and is available in two versions, with M8 or M10 busbar. Note that M10 refers to the busbar connection joints where the modules are connected to each other. The fuse and cable connections are always M8.

A solar charger gathers energy from your solar panels, and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. SmartSolar maintains battery health, extending its life.
The SmartSolar charge controller will even recharge a severely depleted battery. It can operate with a battery voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulphated or otherwise damaged.
MPPT: Ultra Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking
By constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels, and harvested for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partially clouded, and light intensity is constantly changing.
Remote Monitoring and Control
Remotely control and monitor the extensive features of your SmartSolar MPPT charger with built-in bluetooth by pairing it with your smartphone or other device via VictronConnect. If your installation is connected to the internet with a GX device, the Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your MPPT, anytime, anywhere; both VictronConnect and VRM are free to use. For remote installations - even when there is no internet connection nearby - you may be able to monitor your MPPT by connecting the GlobalLink 520.
The VE.Bus Smart dongle is two products in one:
First of all it is the bluetooth accessory for the Victron range of inverter/chargers: Multis, MultiPlusses, MultiPlus-II, MultiGrid, MultiGrid-II, Quattros, and our series of Phoenix Inverters with a VE.Bus port. When installed, use the VictronConnect app to monitor operation and also operate the system: change the input current limit as well as switch between Off, On and Charger-only modes.
Secondly it can work as a Voltage- and Temperature-sense device for the inverter/charger. This works with all models.
For monitoring, the device is a great alternative in caravans, smaller yachts and motor homes for which the Color Control GX or Venus GX are a step too far.
The SmartShunt is an all in one battery monitor, only without a display. Your phone acts as the display. The SmartShunt connects via Bluetooth to the VictronConnect App on your phone (or tablet) and you can conveniently read out all monitored battery parameters, like state of charge, time to go, historical information and much more.
Alternatively the SmartShunt can be connected and be read by a GX device. Connection to the SmartShunt is made via a VE.Direct cable.
The SmartShunt is a good alternative for a BMV battery monitor, especially for systems where battery monitoring is needed but less wiring and clutter is wanted.
The SmartShunt is equipped with Bluetooth, a VE.Direct port and a connection that can be used for: monitoring a second battery, midpoint monitoring or a temperature sensor.
This unit has M10 bolts.
The set includes 6 brackets (4 corners and 2 sides) and cable entry gland.
These mounts are ideal for fixing our solar panels to any vehicle, caravan, boat, barge or even outbuildings and sheds to provide a strong, secure and aesthetically pleasing fixing method.
The mounts will support the solar panel at 25mm above the surface enabling airflow underneath which keeps it cool, ensuring the solar panel functions at it's optimum.
If using with panels equal to or under 175W, you can secure the panel by screwing or bolting it to the mounting corner. The corner itself can be fixed with a good strong adhesive like 'Sikaflex' or 'CT1' which we sell in black white or clear. See related products tab. This removes the need to drill holes in your roof!
You must ensure the roof is clean and dry before attaching. If a painted roof ensure the paint is not flakey.
If you are using panels over 175W in size we recommend that not only do you bolt or screw the panel to the corners but additionally bolt or screw the mounting to the roof as well.
If fitting any panel to a vehicle we would recommend the belt and braces approach of bolting or screwing the panel to the mounts and additionally bolt or screw the mounts to the roof. The strength of these systems is only as strong as the roof type or paint on your roof!
Notes:
- ABS mounts raise the panel by 25mm. Edge of panel to edge of ABS is 55mm.
- You need to purchase additional self tappers or bolts to fit the panel to the ABS mounts, see below for one method which is a good tutorial to get you started...
