    CALB Battery Build - Testing Question

    I used the same technique as Will showed in a couple videos - 4 of them in parallel and then charge with a power supply. It was amazing how long that takes . . . I can't imagine what it's like to do 4 - 100ah or 180ah in parallel. Since they were all within 0.001V of each other on arrival, I...

    Cheapest DIY 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery build? 60Ah?

    Where? I guess all my searching failed to find these kinds of deal, best I've been seeing were around $1 per amp hour. I must be doing something wrong because I'm finding prices about in line with Will's recommendations, sometimes a bit cheaper but not 3/4 off.

    Switching to LiFePO4 Will My Trailer Charger Work?

    I'm in the process of experimenting with solar and LiFePo4 batteries on my travel trailer. It comes with a standard WFCO 8955 converter/charger. I've been trying to research if this will work "Okay" with a 75 to 100AH LiFePO4 battery. I believe the charger likely won't get me to 100%, but...
