Still wonder
@sandog if you are going to run your LFP and AGM in parallel as previously mentioned?
Upgrading to the Wakespeed regulators is a positive regardless of the charge profile but wondering if this is a possible layout.
- Do not parallel the AGM banks and the LFP banks.
- Off each regulator use the AGM charge profile to charge the AGM banks.
- Off of Shorepower and one of the Gensets have AGM chargers for each AGM bank.
- Optional DC to DC off of LFP banks to supplement charging of AGM banks.
Do you normally have situations where you are using the Thrusters and NOT running the engines, whereby the alternators would be charging the AGM banks?
Never dealt with this large of a ship so I am ignorant and just trying to throw out alternate thought paths. My thought is leaving the ships systems to charge batteries related ship systems, ie: bow and stern thrusters, and leave solar, the occasional shore power and a Genset to charge house systems.
One thing I do not see is a mention of electronics, radar, marker lighting, etc. Assume coming off of 24VDC and 12VDC SubPanel? How much draw does all that add up to
