    FLA converter charging a LiFePO4 why does everyone say 80%?

    I agree with one caveat, Install a battery monitor that tracks volts/amps. This way you will know where you stand then add your "bits" as you can.

    FLA converter charging a LiFePO4 why does everyone say 80%?

    Yep Great idea but I use mine to command "coffee" in the morning so I don't have to get out of bed until coffee is ready. A true statement. Yep Yep As am I, before I went "blue" I ran a LK unit that the ElectroDacus controlled through the use of a SSR on the 120 side. I set it up as a power...

    “Mixed battery chems” or separate system

    I am from a different camp so to speak. I have been running a hybrid FLA/LFP system for about five years now. I would suggest that you leave your LFP bank connected to the charging sources and connect the loads to your FLA bank. The LFP will soak up the charge much faster then it could slow...

    The small EGO charger claims to be 325 watts and the larger ( faster ) charger is 550 watts. I would suggest a larger unit.

    Design of AGM & LiFePO4 / Solar system for my boat

    I agree, I have seen as an example the Ford power stroke running two batteries the battery that was connected directly to the starter always failed first. A Motor-home I purchased that the previously installed inverter wired ( works style ) That battery failed.

    Upgrade RV factory installed system

    This is the first thing that needs to go. A Quality MPPT would be in order. My suggestion would be a Victron. This will increase solar output on the panels you already have. If you boondock where shading is an issue I would suggest parallel wiring. As you build your solar add controllers as...
