Dutch manufacturer,<br \/>\nVictron, is well known in the marine market for its steadfastly-built<br \/>\nelectrical kit and the MultiPlus combi is no exception. This baby needs<br \/>\nserious bolting to a bulkhead and at 19kg all-in you don\u2019t want to drop it<br \/>\non your foot!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">This combi has all the features you could possibly want from an<br \/>\ninverter-charger, including the ability to link two more in parallel for<br \/>\nincreased power output. Connections are solid and cable distribution<br \/>\nexcellent. The front panel has all possible alarm indicators as well as<br \/>\nothers showing mode and status. A remote control panel is simply plugged<br \/>\ninto the V-net bus socket, which not only repeats the alarms and on\/off<br \/>\ncontrols, but also has a variable incoming AC adjuster knob for setting<br \/>\nthe maximum AC input power available.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">The reason we chose the 3000 is that it actually has a peak rating of<br \/>\naround 2.6kW, whereas the 2000 model comes out at around 1.6kW max. We ran<br \/>\na 3kW load, which gave an overload alarm, but continued running for 30<br \/>\nminutes before switching off.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">We also connected up the remote 4\u00bdin colour monitor (\uffe165), which allows<br \/>\nyou to set nearly all the parameters remotely, plus it has a neat graphic<br \/>\ndisplay showing exactly what is going where and why.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">If you want all the gizmos and money is no object, this is the one for you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Verdict.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"full-size-image container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-658\" alt=\"Sailing Today Verdict\" src=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Verdict.jpg\" width=\"268\" height=\"87\" \/><\/div><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Results.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><div class=\"full-size-image container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-656\" alt=\"Sailing Today test results\" src=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Results.jpg\" width=\"1284\" height=\"468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2014\/02\/Results.jpg 1284w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2014\/02\/Results-1024x373.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2014\/02\/Results-300x109.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1284px) 100vw, 1284px\" \/><\/div><\/a><strong>Credits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><a title=\"Sailing Today\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sailingtoday.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-663\" alt=\"Sailing Today\" src=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Sailing_Today.jpg\" width=\"417\" height=\"151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2014\/03\/Sailing_Today.jpg 417w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2014\/03\/Sailing_Today-300x108.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 417px) 100vw, 417px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Many thanks to <a title=\"Sailing Today\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sailingtoday.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sailing Today<\/a> for giving us permission to use the above extracts.
