Overview
Victron builds the MultiPlus-II as a combined inverter and battery charger for a battery based power system. It converts battery power to household AC, charges the bank from shore power or a generator, and takes over the loads when the outside supply fails.
Power Assist sets it apart for boats and cabins, since it tops up a small generator or shore line with battery power rather than tripping it. It is a component for a designed system, not a plug in appliance, so wiring and setup need a qualified installer.
Who it's for
Suited to marine, vehicle and land based off grid systems where installers want proven gear. People wanting portable backup power with outlets built in should choose a power station.
Pros and cons
- Pure sine wave output
- Fast switchover on power loss
- Power Assist protects small generators
- Scales up in parallel
- Requires professional installation
- No outlets on the unit
- Battery bank sold separately
- Weight and size not listed
Performance notes
Load handling depends on battery bank size and the inverter's output limit. When shore or generator power is present, it passes that power through and charges the batteries. Power Assist blends battery power in when loads exceed what the AC source can supply.
