The Digital Mermaid | 285 Ah Gel to 1120 Ah LiFePO4! (Ep. 60) @TheDigitalMermaid | Uploaded April 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
After a while working with diesel, we're back to electrics! In this video, we convert the 280Ah LFP 48v battery into 2x 560Ah 12v batteries, for a total of 1,120Ah! That should be enough to get Mermaid's Rest home with some creature comforts!
