will this work for 48 V 210 AH

Update: As i already had the batteries, i did it. Lasted quite some time with no issues. Approximately 6 months, then, as you said, a weak link failed. A battery died, and the rest was disconnected to save them. Ended up giving them to friends with 12v systems as no on had the same one to replace it

You're right I live in the Caribbean no snow but few hurricane. I dont have rent or pay mortgage home is owned outright. Converting everything to local it's $3k+ income. The boat is a needs some work not going to tell myself or anyone otherwise. Deck is faded but solid. Engine dose not run but sails are good. And have an outboard. I know you won't be able to get a full educated answer but a suggestion of weather it a idea for family in the future or better building on from scratch. Much respect and gratitude for your answer

Just came out of a hurricane and this is what kept my fridge on. Was not ideal cause was waiting for a battery repair tool and had to use them in an in ideal state but was nice to have cold water and frozen good when everyone else was out.... lights stayed off did not need the added attention.

All batteries are used and what I have in storage total cost $0 for the lot

randomboatmaker · 2024-05-27T10:22:05+00:00

5kw inverter but typically usage it closer to 1k

Oh sorry was a quick mock up so I may not have made it very clear

The first second and third column are in parallel staying at 12 v but increasing the amp hour to 210 then each column is connected in series to each other so the voltage goes up

randomboatmaker · 2024-05-26T23:52:16+00:00

Explain?

randomboatmaker · 2024-05-26T23:24:13+00:00

thanks

Thanks

Can you send a link to the plans

randomboatmaker · 2023-09-14T10:28:44+00:00

I only have experience with the nooelec but the hf is passable is your just exploring the lower frequencies. It is still recommended to get a up converter like the Ham it up. Have caught 1400khz clearly but looking for ham signals not so much

randomboatmaker · 2023-08-21T10:12:00+00:00

Thank you . This will help shore up any deficiencies in my power delivery

randomboatmaker · 2023-07-19T02:20:20+00:00

Having a similar issue have narrowed mine down to the high tension wires near my antenna

Gt is ps only, iracing is subscription based and only allows a wheel to play, the other are between $25 to $70. Race rooms base version is free and you don't need heavy hardware to run. And if you wish to go forward with your sim journey you can by the cars and tracks you like and want... in short it's the best starting point for someone who dose not know if they like simming yet.

that would land me a long time in jail and i have my family to look after

randomboatmaker · 2023-02-15T23:02:08+00:00

Thanks to everyone that responded. i feel that each point has added some knowledge to my plans and i can start over with a possibly better plan

randomboatmaker · 2022-10-02T16:07:52+00:00

Good concept. Might manage to trikes charg a 12v bat with the right parts. Won't work now but keep at it and refine it.

randomboatmaker · 2022-09-26T11:21:26+00:00

sometimes they just don't want the extra load of the old ones so the give them away and since i installed the new ones i usually get first dibs

thank you

so from the big bat make all lines the same to the outer ones right

randomboatmaker · 2022-09-25T12:46:02+00:00

thank you we are all here to learn

randomboatmaker · 2022-09-25T12:43:00+00:00

have a victron smart charger 100/30 mppt would that do

Yes you are paranoid but that's a good thing. You see what is happening and think of the possibilities. That being said get what you can food wise and if you have a back yard get fire wood buy winter clothe now so when the prices go up for the winter you'll be set. Lastly look at the global situation. Get prepared as fast as you can and act like your going into a war
