Victron for RVs & Vans

(57 products) FAQ

Most Victron RV and van builds follow the same pattern: a 12V lithium house battery, an Orion XS or Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC charger to charge it while you drive, a SmartSolar MPPT for the roof panels, and a SmartShunt to track what you're using. A MultiPlus Compact or MultiPlus-II adds 120V outlets and charges from campground shore power. Everything connects to the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Victron for RVs & Vans Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Which DC-DC charger do I need for my van or RV?

It depends on your alternator and battery bank. As a rough guide, larger lithium banks and modern alternators suit the Orion XS 50A, while smaller systems often use an Orion-Tr Smart 18A or 30A. Ask our team if you're unsure.

Q. Can I control my Victron system from my phone?

Yes. SmartSolar MPPTs, SmartShunts, Orion Smart chargers and Blue Smart chargers all connect over Bluetooth to the free VictronConnect app.

Q. Do I need an inverter in my RV?

Only if you want to run 120V appliances from your batteries. A MultiPlus Compact or MultiPlus-II also charges your batteries when you plug into shore power.

Steve is a awesome salesman at Harbor Chandler. Steve's patients and abilities to make the sale over the phone or Email makes me come back time and time. This is my third purchase and I will be back again to work with Steve. Steve is not just a salesman but also a fellow fish slayer.
Thanks again for everything.

Mustad Addicted Setback Hootchie - Glow Green
Hootchie of the Week!

Got this beautiful green beast, and used it on a low light/overcast day. With a pinched barb, the hootchie took about thirty five minutes to get into the groove, then got our first few hits! Excelent for a NON-retention Linga!
