lithium battery

I would be really grateful for some quick advice please - anybody who has read my posts about electrics will know they're not my strong point. My leisure set up is a Renogy 100Ah Smart Battery (about 17 months old) along with a CTek D250SE DC-DC Charger and Victron Bluesmart 240V Charger...

I have an ex RAC T6 2018 which we a few months in to converting. I’m currently looking at a solar setup with lithium battery but have limited knowledge so after a little advice. Ideally I wanted to fit the battery under the drivers seat as the double passenger seat will be setup to rotate. We...

Hi, I really like the idea of saving space by having my leisure batteries fitted underneath the chassis of my T6.1. New Wave Customs makes a bracket (see pic) that can do this, but they fit a 50 amh Extreme Series Battery Model PC1100, which is not a lithium battery. Under Body Leisure...

I’m on the lookout for a lithium battery to replace my 110AGM, so thought I’d ask here first in case someone has a big upgrade planned and is looking to upgrade their lithium setup. What have you?

For sale due to van change. £475 collected from me near Mold in North Wales. Manufactured November 2021 Has done 127 Cycles so lightly used. Currently charged to 67% All cells are balanced.

Hope this is of interest to anyone thinking of the same sort of conversion. Just picked up the T6.1 upon completion of a fairly major refit by Olie at Hythe Auto Electrics. Pleased as punch with all of the works completed. The new solar panel and Roamer 230 battery in particular has...

Since last November, Australia has bought in new regulations in regards to the installation of LiFePo4 batteries in Campervans and Caravans . They now cannot be located in a habitable area, ie. caravan or campervan, unless it placed in a sealed enclosure, or the installation location is sealed...

I’m going to start buying the equipment I need to upgrade to a kick ass lithium set up that will provide a lot longer off grid camping. Thanks to a lot of advice from @Dellmassive I've got a great idea of what to buy now. Also thanks to @Tall_Paul for solar panel advice. So here is my proposed...

Just had a look at the Fogstar website. They list a 230AH seat base battery similar to Roamer‘s offering but with slightly different dimensions: [My quoted measurements are for actual install aligned to vehicle orientation] Fogstar 275(w) x 315(l) x 187,5(h) vs Roamer 290(w) x 330(l) x 180(h)...

My Sargent EC155 isn't charging the Fogstar Lithium battery. I've checked the 15amp charger fuse on the Sargent and all the switches are up on the breaker. Read another post on here that says probably easier to install a direct charge solution as, the charger function of the Sargent is...

Hey all, Need a bit of help please. I have a 100ah lithium battery being charged by a ctek, running a compressor fridge, usb sockets and led lights etc. and a 170w solar panel. Been running months with no issues, fridge on constantly and never drained or dropped below 13v. I installed a...

I’ve had this battery for just over a year and was working absolutely fine up until 3 weeks ago where it came up with a low temperature warning (I know we’ve had a bad summer but not minus 8). I contacted Renogy and got a replacement under warranty. However the battery has been fine now for over...

Hi, i am thinking of putting a Dometic CRX50 compressor fridge into the van, but not sure about what size lithium battery to go for. I have a 100w solar panel but will be getting a better solar charger (maybe victron) to charge the battery as well as adding a smart alternator charger. We...

Hi all, I am looking at upgrading to a lithium battery, I currently have 110ah agm, victon b2b and mppt and 200w solar so all good there. Been looking at alot of brands and they are about 210cm high but I was wondering is there one that fits under the seat that can stand up. I have a seat...

Hi Newish to the forum (read loads) and had the van for a year or so now… Current leisure battery very smelly (rotten eggs) and not holding charge (drops to 11.4v within an hour of being charged) so assume it is knackered. Am planning to add solar in due course so thought I might as well...

How far do you think I should go with a Lithium replacement? My 2018 t32 t6 is a pop-top conversion which has a factory fit diesel heater and 75Ah leisure battery under front seat and an independently wired 105Ah leisure battery system (VSR, EHU mains charger and EHU) in the rear supporting...

Thanks to the advice from various forum members including @Dellmassive and @roadtripper, over winter we updated our failing lead acid leisure batttery to a Fogstar LiFeP04 105ah battery with a Victron charger. Our original Yuasa battery only lasted 2.5 years despite not going below 50% soc...

I'm about to swap my lead acid battery out for a Super B Epsilon Lithium battery. We spend a fair amount of time "Stealthing" it both winter & summer, and the current 110ah battery is getting tired & isn't up to the job anymore. This is our current setup:- 1, 110ah Lead acid under passenger...
