MPPT connection directly to batteries or via charge splitter
Dear all,

Just about to connect the solar panel MPPT regulator but got second thoughts on whether I should connect directly to the house bank or to the input of our 3-bank charge splitter.

I have connected the temperature sensor to house bank (-) as stated by Victron

Any advice appreciated

Best regards
Steen
