What's this box for that's suddenly appeared on my dashboard?
Not quite the same but similar, need to do something also to stop my batteries charging at night so I can use full power during the right time

Voltronic Axpert Max 8Kw hybrid inverter
3 x Chinese 125Ah (19Kwh total) batteries
To be done, more panels and a wind turbine
