    CHINS 200Ah LiFePO4 battery test/review

    They are having container delivery problems. I am still waiting for my 206ah SOK I ordered in April. It's not their fault though.

    Bulk battery cable

    True, but their cable is a dollar more per foot for 2/0. Ended up getting TEMco off amazon, was about the same as wireandcableyourway.com but i'll get it faster. No west marine here in Idaho. I used to get my wire there when I lived in Virginia or from waytek.

    Bulk battery cable

    I have used them in the past for building wire, but the shipping for some 2/0 and 6 awg was almost $30 for the small amount I put in my cart.

    Bulk battery cable

    I know Will has some links to premade battery cables but is there a good place to buy 5 foot to 15 foot 2/0 awg wire? I have my own terminals, but finding wire prices are all over the place from 3.40 per foot to 5 per foot. Anyone have a preference?

    SOK batteries shipping or was Will lied to?

    Seems that is where they are most active is what I was trying to point out.

    SOK batteries shipping or was Will lied to?

    If you get on the facebook sok group, they have been replying to everyone. Think my email said May 10th shipment would start, they also stated this prior to ordering on April 18th so I knew going in it would be a month before I got my battery.

    Run the wires inside or outside

    Thanks for the reminder about my trailer brakes. Under the trailer is exposed.

    Run the wires inside or outside

    The manual for the multiplus recommends it for the power assist feature and the multiplus ac out max size is 6 awg.

    Run the wires inside or outside

    I an using a 2000w multiplus. Planning to run all the AC circuits except for A/C and microwave for now and once I add a second battery, potentially adding the microwave. For now, I'll just turn the breakers off when we aren't hooked up to shore power. Speaking of, the shore power connection...

    Run the wires inside or outside

    Yeah, I'll need to run new 10/3 from the shore power port to the inverter, then 6/3 from the inverter back to the panel. Either really. The DC for the dc side of the distribution panel which is currently fed straight from the batteries (Lead Acid) on the tongue. Those are being replaced by a...

    Run the wires inside or outside

    I have been gathering the components for my solar build and the one thing I am not sure about is how to get the wires from the inverter/charger to the distribution panel. The installation is going in a R-Pod 180 where the distribution panel is in the under the dinette seat as you enter the RV...

    Victron 100/30 or 100/50

    One other question, is this going to be too much current for MC4 connectors. Say I decide to go with the 100/50, parallel connection on the roof with MC4 then another parallel connection inside where the side port ties in with MC4. Or maybe MC4 on the roof, then a combiner box inside. Was...

    Victron 100/30 or 100/50

    Was planning to disable tow vehicle charging for now. Maybe in the future I'll add it.

    Victron 100/30 or 100/50

    I can't fit and more on my roof. It is a R-Pod, so space in limited. I plan to add a second controller in the future for a DIY 200w briefcase for when we camp in the shade. Think if I did a 3rd 200w panel, even the 100/50 would be limited. I'll be using a 206ah SOK.

    Victron 100/30 or 100/50

    Planning my solar setup for our TT and I have 2 Rich Solar 200w 12v panels on the way. Trying to decide if the 100/30 will be fine knowing that I will miss out on 3a of charging at low temp per the victron excel calculator. The panels will be flat mounted on top of the RV, so I doubt I will...
