SuperBase V4600 / B4600

ravi

My understanding is the SuperBase V4600 has 3KW pure sine Inverter.. which will probably deliver poor efficiency in low loads ie.. less then 1000w.. possibly 80%, so a 20% loss! I am mostly using around 300 - 350w load (PC and TV)

Is it possible to hook up the Satellite B4600 Battery to a Victron battery charger and Inverter? My ideal would be use the V4600 for bigger loads ie, kettle, toaster, Air fryer, washing machine, DIY tools etc and use the satellite B4600 as standalone with a Victron inverter for small loads to maintain a high efficiency %

Any idea on what's cables would be required for the Victron inverter / charger.. and what output port to use on the B4600 please?

Thanks

xt90 port on the battery, you can set it to output and configure voltage from 12 to 60. max 10amps. you cant get more than 300w with an inverter. if posible use DC voltage.

3 things to consider: 1. with a standalone B4600, the XT90 port can be either input or output, which needs to be configured through the app. You thus cannot automatically switch between charging and discharging, which would be required for interfacing to that Victron system. 2. If the B4600 is linked to an SBV, the XT90 port cannot be used at all. 3. the maximum output of the XT90 port is 60V 10A, the the Anderson port can do 12V 30A. They have very strict overcurrent protection though, so due to the sinusoidal power draw of an inverter, you will get less than half of that in terms of maximum inverter output.

with an AC output load of 325W, expect the SBV to draw about 400-420W from its battery.
