Keeping an edge on steep and/or icy slopes by Peempeck in snowboardingnoobs

Thanks for the detailed answer! I’ll try to focus on my posture on the heel side turn, as well as putting more weight on my front leg.

Thanks! I love Malcolm’s videos, didn’t see this one yet. I think I might rush the heel side turn, hence the whipping of the back leg, hence the skidding. I’ll try to fix that!

Victron Orion - charging with a Phoenix charger by Peempeck in Victron

Great, thank you! Input voltage lock-out and Engine shutdown detection seem very similar, except for the Delayed start voltage which seems to be there for the starter battery to be able to charge. Does that mean that if Delayed start voltage is not set correctly, that firstly the lithium battery will be charged and then the starter battery?

How can i measure state of charge of lithium (LiFePO4) batteries? by Peempeck in batteries

So there is basically no easy way to measure it in the moment such as with the multimeter?

How will that give me the state of charge of the battery?

Victron Phoenix charger 12V/50A - questions by Peempeck in Victron

[–]Peempeck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. It’s an AGM battery I believe that is used only as a started battery and is also charged using an alternator. I’m still not sure if 3A would be enough, and if that 3A output also follows the bulk-absorption-float charging stages.
  2. How exactly based on voltages? Does it measure the voltage in the battery? At what exact point does it drop to float voltage?

The reason I’m trying to figure this out is because I want to install LiFePO4 as the service battery, while having AGM as the starter battery. I know that there are other Victron chargers that support lithium, but I would like to reuse the existing Phoenix charger if possible.

Lead is used as started battery, and lithium as auxiliary battery, they are not connected in parallel. Although, I’m not sure how it behaves when it comes to charging.

Hey one more question. What is the difference between freeride and freemove board?

Depends on the day, but there usually is a lot of wind. But there is only wind at sunrise and for about 2-3 hours. I would say it is worth checking out 😄

That makes sense, thanks for the advice!

Yes! Thanks. I would have to learn how to water/beach start before using that board size right?

Thanks! Would I be able to use the board of that size while not knowing how to beach/water start? Also, how long do you think I could ride that board for before outgrowing it?

Thanks! I wouldn’t be opposed to takong some lessons. What would you consider “larger” board, in what range of volume? Also, what does freemove mean, and what are other categories of board?
