    could this devise deliver LiPo4 stored energy safely to a FLA on a camper Both "12V"

    Here's a link... other suggestions on what to buy to acomplish the same would be greatly appreciated as well. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K8OGBEC/?coliid=I1IDXCZ3875GM9&colid=14WOJFZS4KJJI&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

    It's about a month old but this YT vid is about Iron air batteries....

    Agreed in all aspects. and even if it just were any tech that cold be used by big energy it cold relieve the demand for lithium cell materials. That could result in a price drop given how production is a a decent level right now.

    .... they sound too heavy for portable use in vehicles or mobil applications but holy cow chack out the energy density potential!

    Will this device allow me to charge a 12 FLA from my 12V LFPO? (Time sensitive if anyone has a min. it would help tons)

    Thx. 3A could be a last ditch option. that other one was 15... that's closer to where I'd chose to be. Good to know that things like it will do the job.

    Thanks for your opinion. I guess it's a question of if I'll get 40hr run time b4 it would croak. But as long as it will do what I need for that I guess I can look at reviews with that in mind...

    @snoobler, hey bud. I had asked about how to use a 12v LFPO to safely charge a 12v FLA on another post. One reply said I would likely need a Booster built into the charger. I can't find who that was to ask them if this was what was needed so I reposted this a while ago. I realize you can't...

    The link to the v1deo showing it is below. If there is a recommendation that could be a substitute of better quality at maybe 60 buck I'd probably go that route Just for the sake of a protective cased unit for travel. The purpose is to use a solar generators 280AH batteries to top off a...

    Issues going lithium in motorhome

    I am in the same boat. Am am not certain if it is even a concern for you, but I need to make sure when I get around to installing the batteries and new converter that the wiring from the converter to the battery is of adequate sizing to run from the converter positioned above the trailer's...

    A MUST SEE YouTube: "Off The Grid: Installing the Best New Lithium Batteries!"

    One of Wills (prob more than one) videos mentions pre=cherging the caps in inverters as small as 1500w with a ceramic resistor before attaching a LiFePO4 battery directly. I picked up a few small ceramic resistors for just that. They cost about 8 bucks, well worth the cost to just have one...

    Read the replies above...I think your answer is already here. Capacity and quality exaggerations are rampant on aliexpress and alibaba. I wouldn't be the first to gamble on these....
