    Batteries in a small van

    My starter battery should be fine, needed to be able to charge the batteries from solar and driving when possible. I only have enough roof space for 2, 100 watt panels, and I'm not sure it that will provide for my needs in the middle of winter. I don't know enough about simple isolators, to...

    Batteries in a small van

    I believe the ctek has temperature compensation, and it's 14.4 at 77 degrees. I downloaded a tech manual for lifeline agm batteries, and that seems to fall in line with their recommendations. I know it starts out with a 15+ volt charge, to help fight sulfation. That's one of the reasons, it was...

    Batteries in a small van

    I'm putting together a small system, for a small van. Won't be able to build a separate battery box for venting, and the batteries will be mounted under the bed, so flooded golf cart batteries are a no go. Planing on using a ctek ds250 dual charger, with the smartpass, and 200 watts of solar...

    Bought the Oasis Firefly Battery

    I was looking at the drop in ones from bioenno power, and battle born. I'm not ready to make the jump to lithium, although the lighter weight, and more capacity, for size is appealing. I'm building a micro camper, and space is a premium. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Bought the Oasis Firefly Battery

    Right now, I'm finding the 100ah lipo's from 900 to 1100 dollars. If they came down to around 600, I'd definitely go that route. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Bought the Oasis Firefly Battery

    I've been interested in this battery myself, and had hoped for an update. Alot of money to spend on an agm battery, but significantly less the a 100 ah lithium battery. Especially if it can be used as its claimed. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
