    Victron Energy's public 2026-Q3 euro price list, archived on September 23, 2026. It is the one manufacturer document that prints each product name beside its article number in visible text, with an "H x W x D" size column in millimetres and a "kg" column, so every ordering code in this manifest is checked against it. It is read for identity and, where noted, for size; no price is recorded from it. Its size figures for the 1000 A and 2000 A SmartShunts differ from the datasheets, which are recorded instead.

Evidence score

16/100Missing details40% documented

The Evidence score uses the priorities you choose. It counts published documents, such as certificates and warranty terms, and it compares a documented figure with the best documented figure of the same kind. It does not count owner reviews, and it is not a verdict on product quality or on how many people have reviewed it. A low score can mean little is documented, or that a documented figure is below the best of its kind. Undisclosed data scores 0.

Missing details. This number counts only the evidence recorded so far. The source review for this product is not finished, or the maker has not disclosed enough, so the number can only go up.

Missing for this product: Certificate evidence needed; Battery conversion efficiency needed.

Each input is scored against the best documented value for an inverter: warranty term and battery conversion efficiency against every published inverter, idle consumption (lower is better) against the inverters in the same output band, or against every published inverter when the output is not documented. A documented value always earns points; an undisclosed one earns 0 and is listed as missing. Researched products receive a score. Certificates earn points for the evidence itself. Size and weight do not affect scores.

Warranty term5 years6.0 / 30.0

5 of 25 years, the best documented for an inverter (printed by the maker): APsystems DS3

Printed as "Victron Energy warrants its products to be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of 5 years from the date of purchase by the original end-user, with a maximum of 66 months from the Victron Energy invoice date." in the Victron Energy Limited Warranty Policy (2025), captured on September 25, 2026. The policy covers Victron Energy products in general and names no model; it lists lead-acid batteries (2 years) and lithium batteries (3 years) as the exceptions. The policy also states that Victron's direct customers can buy 5 more years for a 10% surcharge. The policy is given to Victron's direct customers (OEMs, distributors and dealers), who must pass an identical warranty to the end-user; end-users claim at their place of purchase.

5 years unconditional (not scored: 5 more years (10 years total) for a 10% surcharge, bought by Victron's direct customers at least one year before the original term ends).
