Review on Victron Energy Cerbo GX: Comprehensive Panels and System Monitoring by Richard Summerall

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works fine again.

Update from 08/15/2020 Since it was bricked up anyway, I opened the case. I saw it was a Beaglebone, went to the Venus OS GutHub website and found the img file. I downloaded the latest version of Venus, put it on the internet and everything worked right away. I'm glad it's working again!————I'm running my site with Venus on a RaspberryPi and thought I'd treat myself to a GX. When it works, it's more convenient and compact than the rpi setting. However, this device has arbitrarily stopped reporting for hours or days since I received it. For no particular reason. Error accessing console via LAN. It blocked itself with every firmware update. The latest firmware update finally blocked it completely. Can't even get the WiFi AP to work on it. I'm a total Victron fan, but this particular unit left me very disappointed. I go back to rpi and drop some of the extras. as temperature and tank sensors.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • There are new competitors
