@DerekMoore89 yes your post definitely got clipped — we're missing the key part of the question.
While you sort that, I'll mention I've been looking at similar AC disconnect behaviour on my...
@BordersExplorer absolutely — those two settings being the peukert exponent and the charge efficiency factor, I assume?
Interesting thread — this is something I've been trying to understand better for my motorhome setup.
Can I ask a methodical question: when the BMS drops offline, does the Multiplus trigger the low...
@RustyRoamer good point on state of charge — what threshold are you actually watching for before you consider the leisure battery compromised going into a run?
Asking because I've got a 200Ah...
@Smithy curious whether your battery's actual resting SOC between those 15-minute windows is drifting significantly below where DESS thinks it should be?
Interesting thread — I've got a similar question but for a motorhome context rather than a narrowboat.
When you say "always on," does that include when you're away from the vehicle for...
Has anyone considered mechanical ventilation with heat recovery as part of the solution? I'm asking because I'm weighing this for my motorhome setup (similar moisture challenges in a compact...
Curious about real-world longevity here — how are you all finding the BMS on these units after extended use?
Been wrestling with this exact problem. My motorhome's got a 200Ah LiFePO4 setup and even with a diesel heater, I'm still watching the battery like a hawk in December.
What I've found helpful is...
I'd push back slightly on oversizing just for the sake of it. I'm running 200Ah LiFePO4 in my motorhome setup and honestly, 200Ah is the sweet spot for most garden office scenarios — but it...
Curious what you lot are seeing on the battery replacement costs side though? That's the bit that keeps nagging at me.
I'm running a motorhome setup with lithium (Fogstar 200Ah) and the economics...
@WattKaren — just to clarify, are you looking to run tools specifically off 12V, or are you asking whether your current 48V setup can handle workshop power tools?
Right, this is exactly what I've been wrestling with for my motorhome setup. Got a 200Ah LiFePO4 battery bank and initially thought I could get away with 10mm² from the charger to the...
Curious about your specific setup—are you looking at a BMS with built-in low-temperature protection, or planning to add one separately?
The discharging side is less of a worry than charging, as...
