I like the way you use the battery to charge the power station. I do this at home on a smaller scale (I'm just getting into solar). I've set up solar panels to a victron solar controller and a lifepo4 battery, and arranged a feed from that battery to the portable power station. So if I want to boost the portable power station at night I can, then the battery connected to the solar will automatically recharge the next day.
@@PreppinontheCreek12 I've just downloaded Venus OS for the raspberry pi and managed to get it to work. Connects to the victron charge controller via USB with a cheap UART adapter. So now I can see battery voltage and PV solar voltage and current from outside my network. Well pleased!

That’s sounds like a nice setup. You can do so much with these batteries. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Hey nice review ...I like this battery.
I was impressed with it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
That is a great deal on a 100ah lifePo4 battery.... $160.00 with $40 discount!!!
