Lithium batteries can take huge amounts of charging current. I am not even close to the max. In total with sun and 2 -30 amp shore plugs, it will be around 150 amps at 48 volts. That’s for all six batteries. If I had to do this all over again, I would install a 50 amp 240 volt inverter charger. The downside to that is it’s a single point of failure. Now I have 2 completely separate 30 amp charging systems. Also, many canadian marinas and all the locks only have 30 amp power.
Is there a point where it's too much charging? Bad for the batteries? Heat / thermal run away or combustion issues? As a network tech, I'm battery illiterate but getting better.
Congratulations
Bryan, Racine's population is close to 80,000.
Racine is deceiving from the water. I will have go and check it out.
