Perfect for Victron V
Works perfect for communication between my Victron Blue Solar 100/50 solar controller and my Rasberry Pi running Venus. Keep in mind this is for a very specific application. This is for a Victron product using VE Direct to USB.

A good solution to get past the 3 ve direct port limit
Another piece of solid Victron equipment. Why there are only 3 victron direct ports on the cerbo gx, I will never know. But this works just fine to get past the limit

worth the purchase.
works like it should. Connected up to my PC and now i can monitor the Batteries, Charger, and panels.

Excellent Designed Product. A perfect instrument
Excellent device. Has a lot of software built in. It considers a LOT of parameters to reflect the accurate state of the battery. Will purchase this one going forward for ANY battery application !!

Expensive, short, necessary
They don’t offer the rs232 cable anymore so it’s this or make your own. I am unhappy that no Victron cable can connect directly to an arduino but I expect it’ll work fine to a pi or libre board, I just don’t need linux for the task. A pi plus some displays will use ~180ma when the same function can be performed for less than 50ma by an arduino and ttl-serial.The cable is about 4’ long which of course is too short. For what this cable cost I didn’t expect to have to add my own usb extension cable.Bluetooth works most of the time from 10’ away through an insulated wall with smart siding on one side and tongue & groove pine on the other. There are many limitations in the iOS bluetooth app but it does the basics and that’s what I needed. I got this cable for my Victron SmartShunt and the bluetooth app updated the SmartShunt firmware twice. I still haven’t used the cable.A common complaint with the iOS app is that it doesn’t gather data when it’s not in the foreground displaying on the screen. That is because of Apple, not Victron. Apple doesn’t allow background apps to have connections open for more than a minute after they’ve been minimized (iirc). My ssh client is the same way and it is like this by design for iPads and iPhones.

Simple cable, makes for plug-and-play connections
I used this cable to connect a Victron MPPT solar charge controller to a Raspberry Pi running Venus OS (a Victron-supported configuration that effectively turns the Pi into a Cerbo GX for remote monitoring of Victron hardware).Setup couldn't be easier: I took the cable out of the box, connected one end to the VE.Direct data port on the controller, connected the other end to the USB port on the Pi, and Venus immediately started communicating with the controller. No configuration or changing settings were needed.Although it's quite straightforward to built your own VE.Direct cable and it will also work fine, the Victron cable includes galvanic isolation between the VE.Direct device and the USB device for additional electrical safety.

It’s so small….
I was expecting somewhat of a big box but this lil thing is only maybe 1/2’ wide and 1.5” long and 1/4” thick….It works great hooked up to my Raspberry Pi sending info to Victron VRM portal. Now I can see what my Victron shunt is doing online.
