So recently I cobbled together a box to basically utilize a Victron 100 | 50 MPPT Solar Charger. Why 🤷‍♂️? ,,, Well the first 100|50 worked very well until one day when about to hook up the alligator clamps, I stood “red 2 red” & “black 2 black” & while pondering the tiny spark I was...

So @HarryN asked me to post a bit about my Rolls AGM experience. I have purchased 3 sets of; Rolls AGMs “S6-275AGM-RE For a couple of Van builds & also my Off Grid Cabin. I have had great success with these 6v AGMs as a 2 battery bank in series to make up 12vdc @ 250Ah. The systems I use...

Hello DIYers I am researching equipment to operate a “swing” gate or a cantilevered “slide” gate. Looked at Amazon & Lift Master. Looking for recommendations from any members who have done this or looked into it. Looked at the LA500...

Hello I am joining up to learn & understand more about solar. I have a Camper Van that I may connect solar to at some point (95% of the time we charge by van alternator). We also have a small off grid cabin & 2 - 100 Watt panels that we have used to charge up 130Ahr FLA deep cycle batteries...

I am considering donating my AGM Rolls 250Ah house battery from my Camper Van to my Cabin battery bank. This would then require a new battery for my Van. I am considering LFP & in the past I liked Epochs. I do note seemingly Epoch has either changed their performance specifications or...
