thank you for answering this again I just wanted to make sure 100% with a better update on my system.

Hey I'm asking this again to see if I could get real life information and numbers from people. I am curious on the communities opinion on solar panels Series or Parallel for Van Life or RV. I wanted to get a more in depth answer to people who actually use these two options in the real world on...

thank you yes! I've figured in everything the 1600 Watt will handle everything I need. I've spent the extra money on low amp/watt appliances that I need also using propane for the cooktop because I like cooking with propane more. the 3000 watt would be nice but it would be over kill.

ok ill look into getting a clamp- on DC amp meter thank you so much!

perfect thank you! yes I was only going to get a Victron multi plus 12/2000 | 12V Input | 2000VA output 120v | 80a charger

Im Assuming If I bought 2/0 Battery wire that is Capable of handling 200amps of power then I'd be fine(Correct me if needed). I know I defiantly wouldn't pull more than 150amps max ever if I had everything single item in the sprinter van pulling max power on the DC and AC side at the same time.

.

yes! A victron inverter charger

it would be in a sprinter van. I think the ac pulls 60amps max. but the ac is 24v but, the company who put it in for me wired it in a 12v wiring.

thank you!

I think my largest load would be around 100A. I was thinking that 400a would be a lot of current the wire for that would probably be insane too. I think everything in my van would pull max 110amp at one time. would it be better to wire batteries in series? I haven't bought anything yet for it...

Hey, Everyone Merry Christmas. I have another question though. I have two EG4-LL 12v 400ah Batteries that will be in parallel so I can have a capacity of 800ah at 12v. Well this is what I'm trying to figure out. Im thinking that the Charging Current and Discharging current is 200amps and...

thank you

thank you

okay thank you for that I checked my solar wires and I in fact have 8awg wires. at the beginning I wanted to run 800 watts of solar but decided against it because of adding an ac and possibly a skylight to the van

Hello, Everyone! Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays. This is what I'm trying to figure out. I have two 12v 400ah EG4 LiFePo4 batteries so a total of 800ah of capacity for my RV. I can't seem to find a battery monitor that goes past 500ah. besides the Victron one that is like $250. Is there any...

thank you ill look into this I think I went with 10 or 8 I can't remember tbh.

ohh ok thank you! well ill probably stick to a 30 100/50 or a 150/45 would be overkill!

thank you for that. so the converter I have now is safe to use with the Lithium batteries?

haven't decided yet on a victron 30a or 40a or a renogy 30a or 40a.

thank you

I have the Progressive Dynamics Intel-power 9200 Series Model PD9260C https://www.progressivedyn.com/pd9200-converter/ manual is https://www.progressivedyn.com/wp-content/uploads/Support/manuals/PD9100-9200-10953E-owners-manual-english.pdf

Yes ill look into it more maybe I could switch a module on it to change it to lithium. I do understand more of a power draw on the low end products but, with 800ah of battery I couldn't imagine it would bother it that much. I wanted to do all Victron but, if I use Renogy I could actually buy...

thank you

thank you

ok thank you!

okay thank you. do you think it would be possible to add another 200watt later on with that 30? I'm assuming that's what you mean about over paneling

The 30 will work okay? or is it to close to the solar controllers limit should I upgrade to a 40 instead?

mobile. I updated my first post thank you for that

12v lithium. thank you for that

I've tried to figure this out before asking with no luck. I currently have a Progressive Converter Charger for Shore power that won't work with my lithium batteries now. Im thinking about just buying a new Progressive Convertor Charger to charge my lithium batteries. I have 800ah of batteries...

I think I have figured out what size solar charger I need but, I just want to make sure first before I buy it. I have 2 200watt Renogy solar panels connected in parallel The Open Circuit Voltage is 27v (Voc) The Short-Circuit Current is 9.66A (Isc) The Optimum Operating Current is 8.85a (Imp)...

yeah no doubt. I got mine at Racked up and go. for 3k with a kit where most other companies just want 3-3800 for the ac alone. it is very over priced because it has 12/24v stamped on it.

yes its actually pretty dope. I ran it non-stop on a wattage meter with other things Hooked up and 17hours of non stop running on auto mode it used only 5.12kwh of electricity. (Eco mode would of dropped it probably another 10-15% on power consumption compared to auto.

thank you for the help guys
