Vic Harder - You say the Orion has Bluetooth that measures amps... which model are you using? With the Orion-Tr Smart, the app does not report amps/current through the app. Just voltage. Just wondering how you are seeing current via Bluetooth and if you are using the non-smart version of the Orion or something that is different?

The orion has bluetooth, so use that to check the charge current. I get 33A out of mine.

I’m looking at my BMV to get the amps. Sorry if I caused confusion!

In Power Supply Mode, the Orion DC-DC screen displays "Output voltage is kept constant and current limited to the configured values on the settings page". So maybe Victron will someday get "current" and display it.
