@Marcovan8 Hi yes just a couple of the settings. It is the reason that I had the battery manager. Alternatively you can send your AMS back and they will change the settings for you.
Thanks looking at sending it back will they need the battery info?@Marcovan8 Hi yes just a couple of the settings. It is the reason that I had the battery manager. Alternatively you can send your AMS back and they will change the settings for you.
Once again thankyou the bluetooth dongle is that the BATTMAN one from ablemailI don't think they need anything more than AH rating. The battery manager runs a bluetooth App that shows what is happening to both batteries and allows you to change the settings. It's a clever bit of kit but I find the bluetooth connection a bit iffy.

you add up the max Amps for all the loads . . .Hi sorry to be a pest
The victron battery isolate how did you determine what size to go for?
Once again thanksyou add up the max Amps for all the loads . . .
they do 65A and 100A. versions ( most people got for the 65A as its ample for most installs (unless running large inverters ie 800w plus)
remember you cant charge back through them - the charger source need to be behind it
the "Smart" versions have Bluetooth to connect to the APP on the phone
"non-smart" versions have NO Bluetooth.

Agreed, these packs do have a place . . we uses them all the time at home, work and camping.Yep, all running. I won't muddy this thread further, as it's not fair on people who want to go the traditional route, but it begs the question "for how much longer?"

@Andysmee do you have any links where you got the hardware from? Cheers PeteI've just completed my under seat leisure battery install.
It's a limited capacity setup with only 32Ah available but it's lithium so can use 100% of that compared to 50% of an AGM battery (and that's often only 50Ah from a 100Ah battery).
I've included:
- DC-DC charger (wiring needed to complete) with MPPT solar input up to 120W (for future)
- EHU charger (wiring to be run)
- 300W inverter (a bit limited) and two 240V outlets under the driver's seat.
- Cutoff switch and fuses for 12V applications, and panel with four usb outlets to rear of drivers seat.
- LCD battery monitor to rear of seat showing charging input in watts and DC&AC outputs in watts.
- Components all boxed together and removable for use in the awning, without removing the seat.
- Plenty of space for a second similar setup under the seat (non-swivel).
- Managed to do the whole job for under £400.
I need to do a bit more work to stop the battery moving but I think it's a pretty neat setup.
What do you think?
