I just switched from 3 12 volt AGM house batteries to 3 100 AH battleborns. Battleborns were slightly wider wedge shape from top to bottom so I just had to raise middle one slightly to make it fit in battery tray in my Monaco. The AGMs fit in same spot tight but just fine. I also went from old cracked 90watt solar panel to 2-200watt panels. My existing solar controller worked fine. We’ll see how it all works out, have trip in couple weeks. I was just sick of worrying that I was going to damage my AGMs by running them too low using heat at night or 120volt power transformer at night instead of gen. With these, they can be sucked down to near nothing and then shut themselves off if they get too low before they damage themselves (internal battery controls for that and temp and …). I’m excited to see how well they power my needs overnight and just hope for sunny days in between!! Lol. My solar array is putting off 13.5amps mid-day when sunny.
Looks nice. Do those have the internal heaters? Did you put in an isolator? I’ll need to get the internal heaters as I get colder temps. I have 525 watts of solar so curious to see how it does but I’ll likely add some panels.
They do not have internal heaters and no I didn’t install any isolators between the lipo batteries if that’s what you’re asking, my RV does have an isolator between the engine and house batteries.
You don't need a LiPo charger, but it will help. These batteries only balance when you get to the top level of the charge voltage so you can aways but a stand alone charger to top them off every couple of months.
Nice! Do yourself a favor and get a Victon charge controller. You need something that will let you bring those bats up 14.6 so they can balance. I also believe that charger controller is a PWM version so you're leaving power on the table.
