Hey team.
I am redoing my electrical system this year an am looking at using lithium for my house/leisure battery. For me the discharge curve outweighs the potential of fire as i will be using a dedicated lithium dual charger (solar plus a 12v input.) called a BCDC1240D from an Australian company -redarc. the system i am going for is 300w solar if my room will allow the 12v input to the solar charger will either be fed by my alternator or shore power if plugged in(will use a 240v-12v power supply and change over relays to switch the input). all loading on the battery will go through a low voltage disconnect to prevent over discharge of the battery. the load will be a 1000w inverter with one high voltage outlet, a 12v fridge, 5 lights(LEDs) , 3 usb charging ports and a small stereo system(probably run off an old tablet i have laying round with an amp to run speakers). Not sure on the total loading to calculate how long the battery will last but my main priority is to get the maximum time from my inverted so i can charge my laptop and game if i wanted to.
If anyone has any input that would be appreciated
