  1. I checked the Victron site.. looks like they have 70a models, and they can be paralleled.
  2. No. Not a bad idea though except for the charging part. I do carry a small (garden) 12v battery for other things like a macerator and water pump to fill my tank.
  3. I've been doing it for the long haul. Victron 48v->12v 360w converter.
  4. LOL.. I see you sig says 'welding pipe'
  5. And what do you have for a shore charger(s)?
  6. Maybe I missed something, but could you share with us why you need such a monster system? I'm 48v 100ah Li with 835w solar in series, Outback 3.6kw inverter, and can run anything, including air going down the road. What are you doing with all this power.. running a mobile welding shop?
  7. I will share, but only with Day's End directory.
  8. Solved: connect to 192.168.18.1 I don't know why the support guy on Amazon questions couldn't have just said that instead of making me wait until Monday to call them on the stupid phone.
  9. Yeah, on Monday. :((( From my research it looks like I"m the only person in the world to ever have this problem.
  10. https://www.amazon.com/Extended-Repeater-Extends-Coverage-Location/dp/B076KRTXQ6/ref=asc_df_B076KRTXQ6/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=242167970588&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11949917707655475848&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9029155&hvtargid=pla-791000456312&psc=1 I'm using this right now and it works great, but I'm baffled on something. On initial setup, you log in, then open your browser and a page comes up and shows you the available wifi networks to be boosted, and you choose one. That worked fine, but then I decided to turn the antenna 180 degrees and I cannot get that screen to come up. I've unplugged everything, waited, tried the 192.168.8.1 thing which they show in the manual, but nothing. Anybody know what to do?
  11. My recommendation is to adhere to the charging parameters of whatever you buy. I have a pretty expensive Outback solar controller that I can program to charge just about anything. Since Li's have no absorb, that got set to near 0. I have a couple shore chargers (my system is 48v) that I sent back to the company to have reprogrammed for my Li's. I just had to pay the shipping.
  12. That is correct, the battery temperature. Thanks. Takes some pretty darn cold temperature to actually get the battery that cold.
  13. No. I've mistakenly run mine down to almost 0% SOC and it recovered just fine. As of this writing, you're not supposed to charge them in freezing temps, but the BMS should disallow that anyway. I'm running my air con with one right now! You'll love it. No watering, no corrosion, no gassing, no hydrometers, no 50% restrictions, light, and maybe never have to replace it.
  14. ut if I sell something and someone writes me a check...where do I cash it...where do I deposit it? MontegoMag What do you mean tax exempt? What kind of taxes? You can deposit checks over the air with a smartphone bank app.
  15. LOL.. good job. Yes, it's a shame when the body won't perform anymore. So many RVers have had hips and knees done. Some are active after that, some aren't. What surprises me is how many people use CPAP. After residential refrigerators, Cpaps are a big concern for dry campers.
  16. I see more overweight RVers than the other kind. RV park exercise rooms are empty. People use "swimming" pools to stand and talk. Hiking groups attract a few people. The most attended events involve eating. Your health will be what you make it, but I do agree that changing scenery is good for ME to keep walking. Just the tear-down and setup of a 5er is pretty good exercise.
  17. Apparently this person just disappeared.
  18. As long as your inverter can handle it, you could run the air too, that's only 12a-15a each. And with 1200w of solar (I'm assuming) piece of cake. You have a monster system there, congrats. And unlike other mfrs, BB does not specify a limit to the number of parallel batteries. Of course at 12v you need to watch that cables and connectors don't heat up. That would be my only slightly critical comment. Higher voltage is usually a good idea when you want to power high amp stuff.
  19. It needs some 12v nower. Sorry, couldn't resist.
  20. I have a couple Nest cams at home. Pricey, but rugged ( I've dropped them), heavy, real quality product. You need 120vac to run them.
  21. Unless you're actually getting paper mail from them I don't know why it matters. I'm not sure what a SD address 'provided by Escapees' is.
