That seems to be the case. They need 14.4 to 14.6V and it appears my Yam is at about 13.5 to 13.6v. So they will charge but just not back to a true full charge. The DC to DC charger will send the 14.4 or so but they are limited on the amp side by the size of the unit and what is available on...
I’ve run this set up for about a month now and it seems to be working fine. That said, only because I come back to shore power and a good digital battery charger to top off the Lithium each time out. I think of you are only charging off the motor, you need to look into using a DC to DC charger...
I think this is true related to being able to fully charge the lithium. They need about 14.6V. I’ve only run mine on a quick water test and on the charger. So far, no issues. Mine will always be back on shore power and a digital charger to bring the Lithium to a full charge. I’m hoping that...
Well I ended up ordering my same start battery, the D34M Optima. I did order the LiTime 230ah plus Lithium for the house. I think it should work but I’m going to find out.
I posted this in “Electronics” and now moving to projects for help.
I’ve started doing some research on replacing my start and house batteries this spring.
I did the original project and purchased my current set in the spring of 2017. I started getting low voltage shut down on my inverter only...
I had this made about 10 years ago. Has a zip out to get to the rods. It’s a dodger attached to the top with a track. Dodger zips into the small bimini. Very stable, I can run in any seas or winds with it. Can still handle rods in the back if trolling and not in way stepping in on jump seat.
I have a system using shore power and an inverter when not on shore power. It’s a Wabasto FCF 5K BTU marine system. I have a 200AH house battery and a Xantrax pure sign wave hardwired inverter. You outboard power is going to make the biggest difference in runtime based out stater/alt output. My...
Happy Thanksgiving CP crew.
I’ve started doing some research on replacing my start and house batteries this spring.
I did the original project and purchased my current set in the spring of 2017. I started getting low voltage shut down on my inverter only after 30/40 minutes at the end of the...
I installed a UFLEX Silversteer SV-28 or close. It was rated up to 300HP. I did it in 2016 and it has given me no issues. Seems to be a quality product. I’m pretty sure Wart recommended it to me back then. Good luck with the fix.
Pelagic is spot on. Mine is currently out as well and I need to check the fuse and or replace the float switch. Manual is also working fine on mine. My fuse is an automotive style and it is mounted right next to the positive terminal of my start battery. I’ve highlighted to fuse location.
