Victron Centaur as power supply

[Sea Change]

Centaur connected to shore power, charging a bank of batteries whilst some small lights etc were running.
Due to some suspected problems with the batteries, I disconnected them and found that the lights stayed on. But after about 20 minutes, the power cut out.

Is this what you'd expect if you used a Centaur without a battery connected? I hope I haven't damaged anything...

I don't think the Centaur has a power supply mode, so if the batteries are disconnected it will still be using its charging logic, which would likely be the reason it cut out. I doubt anything will have been damaged.

Certainly no mention of a power supply mode in the literature.
