I have a new to me 40ft motorhome and want to add solar and LFP.
The RV has 6 new 6v lead acid batteries for the house
I have 12 CALB 180ah LFP batteries I can configure as 3p4s from another project
The RV has a integrated power management system, 12v/2000w Magnum inverter and 7.5kw generator
My thoughts are to build a separate 12v LFP system and use my 2 existing Victron 30a B2B chargers to maintain the lead acid batteries.
The LFP batteries would be charged either by solar and/or 2 Victron IP22 30a 12v chargers (when tied to dock power)
I know this is not the most efficient configuration, but will utilize existing equipment.
Looking for recommendations on other configurations and the best solar panels for mounting flat on an RV.
I’d like to get 1200 - 1600 watts of solar and a Victron MPPT SSC. FYI — the RV is pre-wired for Solar with 6ga wire.
Any help would be appreciated
