We have 2,800 watts of solar, 1,600 amp hrs of lithium and two 3,000 Victron Multi Plus II inverters on our Dutch Star. We can run two ACs and one other high draw item off inverter and batteries. Obviously for a limited time but we've got options.
Having worked in telecommunications for 40 years and being responsible for battery maintenance for a great number of years, I can say this information was spot on.. I would liked to have known the weight of each of those batteries though.
We have three 300ah Enduro batteries. The first two were sent to us while we were camping in Oregon. After a few months, we decided we wanted a third one. Since we were going to travel through Castle Rock, we called Harrison and he met us at his shop. BTW, we used the Switch It Up discount. Also, anytime we called Enduro, Harrison always took the time to answered our questions.
So what he is saying is I should move away from the gulf coast because there isnt enough solar ti deal with loss of power from a hurricane.....when the heat index is 110!
Super helpful. Thanks for sharing this- I find the amp hours and KW info usually very confusing and this made sense, at least while I was watching it 😂
We have a 5,000 watt inverter, 1000 app hours of lithium batteries, 2100 watts of solar, I can run our all electric class A just like it's hooked up 😊😊
So he mentioned the Victron Multi Plus 2,000 watt is actually a 2,400 watt do you know if the MultiPlus C 12/2000/80-50 120V (UL 458) is also a 2,400 watt? Thanks so much for all your videos
Hello, I am a lithium battery manufacturer from China. We mainly produce and export lithium batteries for RVs, with product voltages of 12V, 24V, and 48V. The battery capacity is available in single units of 100AH, 200AH, 300AH, and can be used in parallel. A single battery comes with a Bluetooth monitoring app, and GPS modules can also be customized according to customer needs. The continuous current of the BMS protection board can reach 250A, but we suggest that the battery discharge current should not exceed 1C. I hope to have the opportunity to serve you.
We use the Titan solar generator from Point Zero Energy in our RV and love it! It’s so easy to install and expandable! We have over 2000 watts of solar installed on the roof and six LiFePO4 batteries. We can run the AC plus all the essentials. We can even recharge our electric dirt bike!
I am running a 6000btu ac in my house off 700w solar and a 2000wat inverter 600 ah lead acid with a transfer switch to when they get low it switched to 500ah lithium. Works great if u set it to where it maintains the temp. During the day. But I agree if your ac is running constant I only get a fre hours at night
I've had a pair of 200ah Bajas in our trailer for about a year and a half now and they have been outstanding. Harrison helped me out via email while I was configuring the charge controller along with some other items later on. He got back to me right away and was awesome to work with. I recommend them to anyone that is interested in going lithium.
You can drive a car for hundreds of miles on Lithium batteries. Of course you can run an AC on it. Sill question. The real question is for how long. That depends on how big your battery is.
Ensure all your followers know that if you are full time it is considered your home and be sure to take advantage of the tax credits for everything involved in installing a solar system on your rig. Currently right now it os 30% of the total build cost…
Our question is if we have lead batteries that are on the hitch of the travel trailer can they be replaced with lithium and they sit in the same space or is there more required to where they go and what is required to make them function?
Yes, they can however, you will most likely want to change out your converter to a lithium converter. The converter is what charges your batteries when attached to shore power.
My 2018 rv’s converter came compatible with lithium batteries, not necessary to change anything out especially with any new rv. Best to look up the converters model number for lithium compatibility. But keep in mind only solar can fully charge (aka top off) the lithium battery. Not a big deal if you don’t have any solar the batteries will survive. Lithium batteries can be put anywhere, inside or out, and on their sides even. However they don’t like the cold, but summer months cold wont hurt them.🍻
I have 3030 W of solar panels, I have two Victron 48 V 5000 W, 70 amp inverters. 6 3.8 kW lithium, batteries, I had it all’s installed in Arizona from Northern Arizona solar and wind. In Flagstaff I have all contacts if you need them. They are an off grid company. I was the first RV they did.
Yes... BUT I need at least 600 amp hours... so we would need to add 1 more 200 amp hour battery.. but we would need probably 5 more 200 watt solar panels as well. To run 1 ac on a sunny day

Hi, Todd & Sheila! I'm Ruby and I sent you an email for business cooperation. I'm looking forward to your reply 😊
Very helpful Todd and Sheila! Thanks!

We are trying to plan and figure things out before we spend more $$$. Until then it’s a constant can I do x?

Very informative
Having worked in telecommunications for 40 years and being responsible for battery maintenance for a great number of years, I can say this information was spot on.. I would liked to have known the weight of each of those batteries though.
90 lbs each
@billholsapple for the 200's or 300's
@@thomasmacklin-k8e not sure what you’re asking. The battery weight is 90 lbs. and they 3.8 kw each. Hope that helps you.
200ah weighs 43.1 lbs, 300ah weighs 65lbs.
Not 90lbs each 😂. 🍻
@SpykersB That sounds much more accurate. Thankyou very much.

Great video and very informative. And look at Sheila so front and center now with questions and all. 😀
Another awesome video. Thanks for sharing

If I NEVER dry camp and NEVER go off grid is there any sense or benefit of going from my standard acid battery to Lithium?
No- there is no reason for you to invest the money if you will always have an electric power source.
So he mentioned the Victron Multi Plus 2,000 watt is actually a 2,400 watt do you know if the MultiPlus C 12/2000/80-50 120V (UL 458) is also a 2,400 watt? Thanks so much for all your videos
This was helpful.
So this tells me with the kind of rving we do we will stay away from solar and just use our generator in the motorhome.
Yes - always plan according to how you will RV. Enjoy your adventures!

Awesome video. I’m trying to learn all I can about solar and lithium setups so this was super helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Sheila, if you give a mouse a cookie is one of Elena's favorite saying. So fun

We need to look into these for our solar plans! Great info and video!
5,000 btu ac on 200ah ah battery 200 watt solar. Runs for 3 hrs.
Great video and information.
C4YT ❤
But you also learned that Valerie wouldn’t work for you
easy start for the air conditioner would help
Thanks for the info. Keep it coming
Great info. I need to pick & stick to a rig & then figure Solar. 🙄. Thank you.
Great content! We still have not got into solar but it is on our radar. Thanks for the great information
Looks like chins batteries

Excellent Video, He really broke it down and made it understandable. Good Job!!! See ya at Talona Ridge in Septemberr
Can't wait!
Super cool!
I run all 3 A/C’s and all my appliances at the same time in my RV off grid.
And what kind of system set up do you have?
I'd like to know what type of solar panels, batteries and equipment you have as well. Sounds like a nuclear sub and not an RV. 😊
I have 3030 W of solar panels, I have two Victron 48 V 5000 W, 70 amp inverters. 6 3.8 kW lithium, batteries, I had it all’s installed in Arizona from Northern Arizona solar and wind. In Flagstaff I have all contacts if you need them. They are an off grid company. I was the first RV they did.
@@billholsapple great system and information- thanks for sharing with the crew it’s helpful for others!
@@billholsapple awesome setup. 👌
Todd he said that would t work with the batteries that you already have
Yes... BUT I need at least 600 amp hours... so we would need to add 1 more 200 amp hour battery.. but we would need probably 5 more 200 watt solar panels as well. To run 1 ac on a sunny day
