Oh , well in that case I may need to sort my MPPT out , I’m sure it’s running on a preset , was told to leave it on that by the supplier.
Going to grab a screen shot of settings , maybe a custom setup should be programmed ?
Spruce, let me know if any of it needs adjustment will you please ?

What I suggest you do is contact Victron and them ask what settings they recommend advising you have a maintenance free lead acid 110 amp leisure battery in a moving van using "X" number of amps of battery current a day.
The settings you are using are for deep discharge GEL batteries. On my Sterling unit these batteries require a different charging profile to the flooded lead acid batteries.
I'm also a bit iffy about the 16.2v equalization charge. I see is not automatic but I think this applies more to a stationery battery and I believe this voltage is too high for a sealed LB.
My Sterling unit doesn't have this conditioning program.

Well today was a success, only did 4 hours of work (lazy git)
Had pump and heater running constantly for the 4 hours and only used 15.5 Amps , but I did pull in 7.5 Amps through the solar so only really took 8 Amps out of the battery.
Going by that I should only use 24 Amps for my usual day even if no solar comes in at all !
That’s 25% of my battery capacity which is a great result .
Downside is I have to take the battery out each night , but upside is when I turn the key at the end of the day I get home
