Bay Soul

Tempting price but I've been down the "cheap LiFePO4 from a brand I can't pronounce" rabbit hole before and my motorhome ended up with a very expensive paperweight bolted under the bed.

@MarineVicky my Yamaha EF2200iS had me convinced it was haunted before I realised the input current limit was set lower than my kettle's ambitions.

@ExPostie82 my Fogstar cells in the motorhome threw a similar strop last January — turns out my BMS had a low-temp charge cutoff at 5°C but discharge protection was set far too conservatively at...

Wrong forum but my motorhome had the same "where do these wires go now" moment when I ditched the old lead-acids for Fogstar units — turns out the answer is always "panic, then...

@HalfAJob my Solis did the same thing in the motorhome — turns out the minimum battery voltage threshold was set so conservatively it was basically treating a half-full battery like it was on life...

Your Fogstar will absolutely refuse to play ball below freezing—that BMS lockout is there because lithium plating is basically the battery equivalent of a bad divorce, expensive and messy.

Right, so I've got a Victron setup in the motorhome that's finally behaving itself, but my dodgy crimping tool situation is making me look like I've got parkinsons every time I need to do...

24V in a Sprinter, no question — your cable runs are probably 3-4 metres and 12V will have you watching your voltage sag like a depressed souffle.
