Definately will do a trial run first. I dont want to spend $2000 on premium batteries, so will be using $600-800 200AH lithium most likely. Cheap chinese batteries will be at increased risk I presume. My experience is with Lipo, and that chemistry earned my respect. LiFEPO4 should be much safer...

part of it is proof of concept. it worked on a trial run in Moab with the Rpod with two SLA car batteries. Basically, every forum poster says the same thing, it wont work. I don't think they are correct, and the only way to prove it is to do it. I am just asking for suggestions and guidance. The...

I am thinking more and more about lithium. Technically, I have 4 cores. 1 is a brand new 2022 battery that came with the new trailer. One is 2 years old, one 3, and one about 8 yrs (dead). I was going to sell the old trailer with the 2yo one, and exchange the 3yo and 8yo for new batteries if...

Thank you for the response, and useful info on lithium vs lead battery chemistry. But I am not interested in run time at all. I am concerned about high continuous current draw. if the 2x 6v in series will not work, its not worth comparing them at all. 500CCA is a perfectly meaningful number...

I am moving the Solar system from our RPOD trailer to a NOBO and am expanding the system for basically double capacity. The old system used 2 x 12v standard Marine batteries with ++500CCA each. This was connected to a 4x 100W renogy PV array with PWM 30A charger. The (chinese) Pure Sine Wave...
