Hi Don, like most lithium battery ads, there is virtually no reliable specs on the battery.
Specs like can the battery be cycled down to 100% DoD or only down to 80% which would mean the battery is only good for 40Ah of usable power.
Also would be nice to know how many cycles the battery is capable of.
Extrapolating from the other units.
2,000 cycles at 80%dod
Thanks Tombie, that is the case if they have used the same lithium cells?Quote:

Again, the problem is a lack of specs, to be able to know what one is actually buying.
I’m all sorted and very happy with equipment installed and performance.Quote:

Purpose of thread was to show what I selected and report some real life experiences using the solution daily while touring in the hope it’d help other.
System is in good shape this morning………For our road trip.
Although we are hoping to camp at a pub tonight so good chance the induction cooktop will not be required.

I had a very good trip to Big Wei Battery at Moss St the other day. Small family business who build the batteries on site in front of you. Mr Wei worked in one of China's leading lithium battery cell factories in China and buys his cells from there. Impressively they know all the specs and use nice BMS and do not try to suggest they are drop in replacements...they note the battery will never perform and live as long as designed without a proper lithium charger. Best prices anywhere and nicely made batteries with leading cells. Cheers
Hi Scott and if a lithium battery is a genuine Drop-In, it can offer some interesting advantages over DC/DC setup, if the isolator has lithium friendly charging functions.
Each unto his own, but where the lithium is to be used in a vehicle, my experience has found that a Drop-In would be a better choice.
I might pop down…..amd stick my nose inQuote:

For my starter I’m tempted to install a lithium starter but…….. me thinks I’ll just keep install a new lead acid the week before we leave on our upcoming 2 year trip.
More than happy with the performance of my lithium setup…….would never go back AGM’s for house batteries.
DCS now have a 130A/hr,same physical size as the 100A/hr,for use in vehicles.Quote:
