Howdy,
I just wanted to introduce myself. When FOlivier
sold his Newell, I was able to
purchase and install the system in my Newell.
I am sure I will have questions as I gain my experience with the setup.
Here are the basics. 1000 AHr
battery pack supplied by Balqon. BMS system installed to protect against HV and LV.
I set the Link 2000
charger to charge to 14.0 volts and float at 13.1. I was able to toggle some settings to get the Link Panel to show a SOC.
So far on 50% discharged
batteries both the Freedom 2500
charger and the Leece Neeville
alternator will initially charge around 120 amps.
I will install a programmable
alternator regulator just to keep from frying the alternator.
The coach is all
electric. A gorgeous outcome would be if the new setup will
power the fridge, the Aquahot, TVs, and my wifes fan through the night. First data points say no problem.
My background is Chemical
Engineer, lifetime wrench, and now a man of leisure.
I look forward to
learning about the systems from this forum.
