Finding the sweet spot with Lithium?

[Ray]

FWIW, I was a little alarmed when I checked our Renogy battery in the Tvan the other day, it had switched off due to self consumption, radio and victron regulator running 24/7 and Tvan was parked under the carport without solar input. Battery voltage was 10 volts. I hooked up portable panels and it quickly switched on and started charging up at 5.8 amps, now after 2 days of weak sunshine  its up to 61%. So it looks like the BMS is doing its job well.

This is EXACTLY what I have now set up in my Tvan too. Nice one

Any work required to modify the battery compartments for a good fit ? I'll go down that path soon too.

From my research there are only a couple that fit without modification...so check measurements carefully.  Took a little longer than expected as i neded to swap the bcdc charger and the 240 charger as well.
very happy with result.

The batteries I fitted (Fusion LiFePO4) required the removal of all the internal angled brackets, as they fitted exactly in the base of the battery box - no extra bracing required. I also removed a spacer plate fitted under the battery box lid, as this was not needed either.

I just use some closed-cell foam padding (from a foam sleeping mat) and provide a nice tight fit for the batteries that way.
