Frequently Asked Questions
How to adjust a Victron Orion 24/12-70 DC-DC converter output voltage?
Remove the cover to access the potentiometer. Turn it clockwise to increase voltage, counterclockwise to decrease. Range is about 10-15V. Use a multimeter to set the desired output.
Can I use Victron Orion 24/12-70 as a battery charger?
Yes! Since the output is adjustable, you can set it to a suitable absorption voltage (e.g., 14.4V for lead-acid) and use it to charge a 12V battery. It will provide up to 70A, but ensure current is limited appropriately.
How do I parallel Victron Orion 70 amp converters?
Connect up to five units in parallel, with their outputs tied together. Each unit must have the same output voltage setting. Use a common on/off switch. Ensure adequate wiring and fusing. They share current automatically.
Victron Orion non-isolated remote on/off wiring – how do I do it?
Use a low power switch between the remote on/off terminal and the positive input (or negative, depending on model). Or connect to the engine run/stop switch. This switches the converter on/off without handling high current.

Good, but noisy fan
It works well and provides plenty of power, but the fan is a bit loud when it runs at full speed. Not a deal-breaker, but noticeable.

Not isolated, but okay
I knew it was non-isolated when I bought it, but I still had to be careful with grounding. It works well for my application, but I'd recommend the isolated version if you have sensitive electronics.

Great, but terminals are small
The converter works great, but the M8 terminals are a bit small for the size of wire I wanted to use. I had to buy reducers. Otherwise, fine.
