Solar Joules are catch and release
I’ve got four golf carts with various combinations of flooded lead acid and LFP batteries, each of which is on the order of 3-10 kWh capacity.
I am about to install six EG4 PowerPro wallmount batteries for a total of ~86KWHR LFP storage.
Obviously I can charge my golf carts at night by the simple expedient of plugging them into 110 V outlets. However, that feels kind of inefficient.
Is there such a thing as a 48 V to 48 V battery charger? I’d like to be able to pick a maximum current in the range of 15 to 30 A, and have the charge shut off when a particular voltage is reached. Would the lead acid batteries need some kind of multi stage charger for more than occasional use?
And of course, if I could swap the inputs and outputs around, I could use the golf cart batteries to recharge the house batteries in an emergency.
Anyway, just sort of mulling this over and wondering if there’s already an off the shelf solution to this.
Thanks!
