Alliance RV's now coming with Victron Solar Controllers?

[Hornsky]

Hello. I've seen a couple of Facebook posts that showed the 2025 340RL Paradigms with Victron Solar Controllers in them. They have the standard solar setup, not the Super Solar Plus package. Anyone know if this will be the case on all Alliance products going forward? Will they change the Super Solar Package too? I have a 2025 Avenue 32RLS with the Super Solar Package on it on order for a March delivery and I'm curious to know what I will be getting. Here is a 340RL for sale with the Victron Controller visible in the front storage compartment - https://www.parrisrv.com/product/new-2025-alliance-rv-paradigm-340rl-2742576-5

You're going to love that setup. I just added/configured my 2x Mopeka LP sensors to my Cerbo GX today and love it!! I can now see propane levels while standing in the RV. I have to finalize the CerboGX setup, but here is how they show up. Note.. you have to fill them both before setting up, so they can understand what "full" is.

You can also add Ruuvi tags so you can monitor temps in your fridge and other areas.

Yep...already have those.

That is super cool and definitely gonna setup as I will likely be relying on my propane capacity / generator for longer off grid periods under the forest. I had the Mopeka sensors on my last toyhauler and they worked pretty well

To follow up, I confirmed that there are more options available now with the super solar package. At least on my build. It has not been announced to dealers and there are no published price lists yet, etc…. I do not know details of how they will package or what the standard offering will be in the near future.
Many thanks to Hornsky who started this thread which lead me to contact corporate office / regional sales to sort out what options were now possible vs what was originally offered and adjust my build. My paradigm will now be built with 3 400 watt Go Power solar panels, Victron components including solar charge controller, multiplus inverter, system monitoring with the GX touch 50, etc.. and two 400 amp hr self heating renogy lithium batteries. It is costing a few bucks more but well worth it in my opinion as this is a significant upgrade to the original package and will provide for most of my off the grid requirements.

Interesting. I will see what my regional sales guy says.

I spoke with my regional sales guy and he said the Victron systems are available on Paradigms but not on Avenues.

Sounds like we were both talking to Max last week as looking for the same build on my 340RL with extra battery.

Yes, Max is the guy. He is great. I must say, I have very low expectations in general for the RV industry, overall quality, etc.. but I am 100% impressed with Alliance thus far and the people I have worked with. Their consumer flexibility and agility as a business is something I have never seen in this industry.

We just took a tour yesterday (Thursday 2/6/25) and we were told that the Super Solar Plus package now comes with Victron controllers. Since we are interested in an Avenue 32RLS I specifically asked “The Victron is installed on the Avenues as well as the Paradigms” and I was told yes?

We went on a tour of the Avenue line a week ago and we saw our 32RLS on the line. It had a Victron solar controller in it but it was then put in a different building to have the Super Solar Package installed and I assume that the rest of the components will be Renogy.

They are waiting for a battery shipment to come in and the April is going to send me a picture of the front bay area.

We were happy to see the 2 18K chill cubes in the main living area and the 8k Furrion on in the bedroom. And the termafoil ducting material from the furnace.

April Clark sent us some photos of our completed 2025 32RLS, particularly the Super Solar Package set up and the Furrion A/C's, neither of which was installed when we saw our camper on the assembly line on 1/31/25. The newer Renogy 3000 watt split phase inverter charger is a surprise and a definite upgrade from the previous Renogy inverters they were using. It only weighs 22 pounds! It is comparable to a Victron Multiplus 2x120 inverter at half the weight as it is a high frequency inverter. Also a surprise was an 85 amp Victron charge controller as it had a 50 amp controller installed when we saw it. I'm not sure I like one of the 400 watt solar panels being in front of the bedroom AC, so I may end up moving it. This set up will be nice with the Furrion 18k Chill Cubes as they use less energy than the Colman Mach's that were previously used on the campers. I am very happy with the set up for $6000.

We just ordered our 2025 Avenue 32RLS today with the Super Solar Plus package. We're excited.

Would have been nice to include a shunt in that setup. Your battery gauges (LED) will never tell you the real SOC of Lithium batteries.

It comes with a wired battery monitor that is mounted near the control panel in the camper so I don't believe that is an issue. You can see the RJ-45 connectors in each battery and those are wired to the monitor. I will see how well it works but I have a Victron 500 Amp smart shunt from my previous camper if I need it. I am looking at the Renogy One core for a system monitor as it works with Victron and Renogy components and it's a lot less expensive ($175) than the Victron Cerbo's and the separate 5" or 7" view screen.

It's a factor of cost vs what I want and need. Victron components are top of the line but you pay for that. It's a choice. I may find out that I don't like the Renogy products but I'm not paying a ton of money for something that I may not use very often. And I can upgrade thing later, if I want to.

$6000 for 1200 watts of solar, 300 Ah of batteries, 85 amp charge controller and a split-phase inverter/charger, all installed, is a good price in my book.

Just wish Alliance would start using busbars. Those all in one lug mount seems messy and not a great solution. Here is a busbar image I grabbed off the web
