Overview
The Victron EasySolar-II GX combines an MPPT Solar Charge Controller, inverter/charger and control hub with display in one enclosure. The display reads battery, inverter and solar charge controller parameters. The same parameters can be accessed with a smartphone or other Wi-Fi enabled device. In addition, Wi-Fi can be used to set up the system and to change settings. The DC output of the SmartSolar MPPT is parallel wired with the DC connection of the MultiPlus-II inverter/charger. The on/off mechanism of the Multiplus-II also controls the SmartSolar MPPT. The Victron EasySolar-II GX integrates the following elements prewired together inside a single unit: A Multiplus-II inverter/charger A SmartSolar MPPT-Tr solar charge controller A GX device with a 2x 16 character display Connection of AC input and output is via screw terminal blocks. Battery connection via two M8 studs PV connection via two M6 studs

Reading the specifications
Victron EasySolar-II GX is listed with 10 published specifications from Victron Energy, including system battery voltage of 24V, MPPT trackers of 1, connectivity of VE.Bus, VE.Direct, VE.Can, BlueTooth, WiFi, Ethernet and connection of [\"M6 (Solar), M8 (battery\"). Those figures are what decide whether this unit fits your system, so read them against the equipment it will connect to before comparing price.
For an inverter, the figures that matter most are the MPPT voltage window, which decides how many panels go in a string, peak and weighted (European/CEC) efficiency, typically 96–98.5%, topology — on-grid, off-grid, hybrid or micro and continuous AC output in kW, which caps the load you can run at once. It is the component that decides what a solar system can do: how much power you can draw at once, whether you can export to the grid, whether the system keeps running in a blackout, and how well the panels and battery are managed day to day.
Choosing an inverter: the checks that matter
The checks below apply to any inverter. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.
- Confirm the inverter is approved by your local utility or distribution network before you buy if you intend to export power — grid connection depends on certified anti-islanding and local grid-code compliance, not on the inverter's specifications alone.
- Match the battery communication protocol (CAN bus or RS485) between inverter and battery. Compatible voltages are not enough; without a supported protocol the battery management system and inverter cannot agree on charge limits.
- Look at the warranty term and what it covers. Five years is the common baseline, ten is offered by stronger brands, and extensions are often cheaper bought with the unit than later.
- Size the inverter against the loads you need to run simultaneously, not against the total wattage of every appliance in the building — a 5 kW inverter comfortably runs a fridge, fans, lights and a couple of ACs, but not all of them plus a water pump starting at the same time.
Common mistakes
- Overlooking the IP rating. An outdoor installation needs at least IP65; indoor-rated units mounted outside fail early.
- Buying on peak-watt price alone. A cheap inverter with a narrow MPPT window forces awkward string layouts and can strand a portion of the array.
- Ignoring the ambient temperature rating. Inverters derate in heat, so a unit rated 5 kW at 25 °C may deliver noticeably less on a hot roof-adjacent wall at 45 °C.
Price and availability
Victron EasySolar-II GX is listed at £ 994 (GBP). Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.
SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in your country: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports Victron Energy locally before ordering.
Victron EasySolar-II GX — frequently asked questions
How much does Victron EasySolar-II GX cost?
Victron EasySolar-II GX is listed at £ 994 (GBP). The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.
What are the specifications of Victron EasySolar-II GX?
We hold 10 published specifications for this inverter, including system battery voltage 24V, MPPT trackers 1, connectivity VE.Bus, VE.Direct, VE.Can, BlueTooth, WiFi, Ethernet, connection [\"M6 (Solar), M8 (battery\") and weight (kg) 28. The full table is on this page, listed under model VES-II-24/3000/70-GX.
Who makes Victron EasySolar-II GX?
Victron EasySolar-II GX is a Victron Energy product, listed under inverters with model reference VES-II-24/3000/70-GX. The Victron Energy brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.
Is Victron EasySolar-II GX right for my system?
That depends on what it has to connect to. For an inverter, check surge or peak rating, which covers the brief inrush of motors and compressors, maximum PV input and the number of MPPT trackers, which set how many panel strings you can connect and the MPPT voltage window, which decides how many panels go in a string against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Choose a hybrid inverter if a battery is in your plan now or later; retrofitting storage onto a pure grid-tie inverter usually means buying a second unit or an AC-coupled battery system.
Where can I buy Victron EasySolar-II GX?
SolarBazaar lists and compares equipment rather than selling it. Use the specifications and price here to shortlist, then buy through an authorised distributor or installer — buying in-channel is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid.
