  • Post in thread: Must battery cables be equal length?

    I feel like I'm missing something. I'm a noob, so this is very possible. All the "diagonal" suggestions made so far, other than the Wiring Unlimited reference, seem functionally the same as the diagram in post #2. That is, unequal interconnect lengths but the round-trip length to any one...
  • Post in thread: Must battery cables be equal length?

    I think Carl is suggesting something like this, where each numbered cable is the same length:
  • Post in thread: Cell maximum elevation?

    I noticed that KiloVault batteries have a maximum altitude spec of 3000 m (9840 ft). I haven't found any other battery mfgs even mention altitude/elevation. Is this a common thing? I live in Colorado and being limited to 9800 feet precludes traveling to about half of the state.
  • Post in thread: Old Magnum Energy MS2000 Inverters with MS-MR controller

    I have (Edit: a slightly newer) inverter and remote, but they're functionally the same as yours. I can't definitively answer your question but I just came across this post which causes me concern: (click the "Click to expand" link to see the whole quoted post)...
  • Post in thread: Analysis Paralysis: Renogy vs KiloVault vs BB

    Edit: I'm sorry, I thought I posted this in the "Plug-and-Play" battery forum. I'm trying to replace my RV's AGM 8D house battery with as much lithium as I can. The only practical location for my batteries is the current battery bay which is shared with the AGM chassis batteries. The bay is...

    Nice! I'm glad you have a path to success.
  • Post in thread: Cell maximum elevation?

    Thanks for the responses. I asked KiloVault about this and this was the reply: "I'm sorry, but the altitude restriction is based on the internal pressure the sealed cells in the battery can safely be exposed to." So I guess there's no pressure relief valve in their prismatic cells? I dunno.
