  • Post in thread: Predator or Champion?

    Based upon personal experience, I would go with the Champion. Started 12 years ago with their 2K stackable units and parallel kit and they are still running like new (moderate usage). Followed up with their 3100 dual fuel a several years back and it's still running like new as well. Latest is...
  • Post in thread: Group 31 equivalent size LIFEPO4 batteries?

    "it's a smoke"? Anyway, my bad - was looking at a different DigiMarker listing that included 100, 135, and 200 AH batteries and misread the dimensions. The 135AH is indeed too long at 16" to fit in the battery tray (which is 14" x 14"). Oh well, guess I'll stick with 2 x 100AH when I...

  • Post in thread: Standard vs Mini / prismatic vs pouch

    Have both the Redodo Mini and Power Queen Mini 100ah batteries for ~ 10 and 6 months respectively. No problems to report, they both charge up to 14.6 with generic lifepo4 20AH chargers. Results are the same whether charged individually (20ah rate) or in parallel configuration (40AH rate using...
