Good simple video but...You mentioned chargers and that the GoPower batteries were a drop in replacement for Lead Acid. You really can't just drop in LiFEPo4 batteries without either replacing your converter/charger or if you lucky, setting your charger to Lithium. Lithium and Lead Acid have different charge profiles. While you probably will not damage your LiFEPro4 batteries by charging them with a lead acid charger, you will probably never get them to fully charge.
The video was intended only to assist in explaining what a lithium battery is, it was not an in-depth video explaining charging profiles. Something that may interest you is, WFCO is releasing new technology called Auto-Detect for converter chargers can automatically detect the battery type and adjust the charging profile for that type of battery. wfcoelectronics.com/
Thanks for the good info. Are you going to have a video to explain what peripheral items may be needed to manage your batteries? Shunt, SOC, ETC.?
Very good info Mark. I have gathering info. on lithium. Thanks
