New Battery - New solar settings?

packetjunkie · July 2021

I installed a Duracell Ultra 105AH battery to replace a bad factory battery. Overnight we had used only about 25% of our charge, but due to overcast skies and some shade I used a generator to boost us to 80% for the night (just being cautious). Ran the fan and fridge all night and lights late into the evening. Next morning was in the 70% area. Great - all good.

I had some higher expectations for the drive home that day and the solar, only at 74% when I got home. Is there anything I need to consider in the Solar settings that should be updated with a new battery (I updated the Shamt Shunt to the 105ah)?

I thought the dealer supplied the TaG battery?

The dealer did, but after our first outing it wouldn't hold a charge and rather than drive 4 hours round trip, I just bought a new battery. I think it's all setup as it should be, just thought to ask if anyone ever had to change their settings when putting in a new battery.

I had to change the settings on my Victron Connect when I went to my lithium setup. It was a simple drop-down menu and the app auto-filled all the charging/use specifics.
