Pleasantly surprised! AC200Max + B230 with T500 into B230

I came across a surprising feature that I didnt expect.

My setup is:
AC200Max with B230 connected via coms cable

  • AC200M with 900w solar into aviation cable
  • AC200M with 500w solar into D050S via barrel plug
  • B230 with 500w AC from T500 via barrel plug

I moved my T500 AC adapter to my B230 barrel plug input expecting that it would only charge the B230 fully and then stop. However what happens is that AC200Max recognizes the input from the T500 in the B230 and distributes the charge via the AC200Max battery pack 1 and B230. Like it would have if I kept the T500 on the barrel plug of the AC200M.

I never knew that and thats awesome, so if I leave my T500 connected to the B230, it can charge BOTH to 100%. I’m super happy to find that out :slight_smile:

I hope this helps clarify for anyone thinking about this setup.
