Diginit said:Tests, current draw battery capacity is all well. Most important item IMHO, is a quality controller for solar panels such as a Victron. Quality controller along with moving panels thru out the day will give max return for daylight hours. Many controllers supplied with panels can be brought for about $4.50 on Amazon and not even MPPT as claimed. :awful:
Most of us use Victron MPPT or similar controllers, The importance of Lithium boils down to the it's willingness to except a Charge and not waste the power of Daylight, So Condors testing mirrored what I was finding using Lithium Packs / Solar Generators,
But most importantly by going Lithium we can shead a 100kgs or more keeping out Vehicle below GVM as well as allowing us to carry other gear if needed and Saving Space, Where a single 200Ah Lithium will take up the space of a 115Ah Group 31 Battery FLA,
It's hard not to be impressed with a Good Lithium Setup.
