Victron cerbo gx values look off - pairodice - 02-02-2025

I be had my victron multiplus II installed for about a month along with a Vernon gx and 12-volt rack batteries all from signature solar. Everything works perfectly but we are stopped at a rest area with lots of led lights and the 220-volt range top running on the generator and I am showing voltages in the watt range - does the image look correct please?

Is aquahot on electric?

Remember watts = amps X volts. So you are pulling 200 Watts/120 volts = 1.6 amps

If you wired the victron in to replace the old inverter that would look about right, turn on the microwave and see what your wattage goes to, it should go up to 1500+ watts.

Jack, Yes, I wired in the 12-volt inverter/charger myself and learned a ton (and didn’t burn the coach down). I’ll disconnect the shore power (and genset) and try the microwave using only the inverter.
Richard, I’m not sure if the AH was on electric or not honestly. Would it run (100v) on the inverter?
These new batteries are great and I’m glad now that you talked me into just running 12-volt everywhere - I learned a lot and when I finally decide to go 48-volt I will know a lot more - especially not talking to sales people until I know EXACTLY what I need! Lol (yes, it’s funny now…)
Thank you guys for ALL your help! I know I am frustrating at times since I over-react and don’t give all the information at first… I’m a little A.D., hey what is that over there??? Lol

The AH does not run on the inverter, you said in the original post you were running on the generator.
