getting ready to purchase any thoughts?

We are getting ready to purchase parts for my lithium upgrade… any thoughts from the hive mind?


3 Relion 8d Batteries for 900 amp hours replacing 3 8d Rolls batteries


Victron mutiplus II GX 12/3000 inverter/charger replacing victron charger and Xantrex 2000w inverter


6 victron 100/15 smart mppt solar controllers replacing Genasun GV10s

I am keeping the 6 100w solar panels for the moment, eventually I will be adding an additional 1.2-1.6 KW in solar when my new arch is done over the winter.

Lynx BMS victron

Cerbo GX and GX touch

I also don't really understand how the DC to DC charging is going to work yet still reading on that. At the moment I have just the two stock alternators on my volvo md20-30s. They will probably get upgraded as well over the winter but I think the solar is more important at this point.

I am trying to build a system that will support expansion, maybe DC air conditioners or induction cook top ect.

Am I overlooking anything obvious? Any components missing? I realize this is not an earth shattering design and pretty much follows the general lay out from Victron. Obviously this is a big spend and would like to get as much correct as possible on the first pass.



Thank you,

Christian
