I don't know how they do it but somehow the latest Quarterly price adjustment from Victron just came out and they managed to drop the prices of a lot of parts.
- VE Direct inverters had price drops of between 4% and 10%
- Smaller MultiPlus inverter chargers had price drops of between 10% and 15%
- Larger MultiPlus and Quattro inverter chargers mostly stay the same but a few models had price drops of between 6% and 15%
- Lots of the Orion DC DC Chargers (but not the XS Range) had price drops of 10%
- The "Smart Lithium" batteries are being phased out and remaining stock of batteries and their associated parts like BMS's had price drops of between 10% and 15%
