NEW LiFePO4 + how to set VICTRONS. Ep. 56 

Nice one. Another thing is that after you select the cog on the mppt controller then click on the 3dots on the top again and change the name of your controller to something making sense. I use my boat name them voltage/ amperage which helps when you have different voltage or amp controllers. Don’t rely on that Daly to give you correct SOC they are horrible at counting small amp charges and discharges. Use a nice Victron smart shunt to give you real readings.

Thanks for your beautiful video Guys!

Always great to watch you guys - great content; sense of humour and clever solutions

Interesting installation. Thanks for sharing!

Hi. As you are producing the very best Dutch sailing channel since years, my guess is that it should not be too difficult for you to convince Victron to provide you with free of charge devices. Over time you will see that you wish you had all Victron equipment instead of mixing up different brands. Thats the way I went an I can only recommend it. I paid for it, as I do not run any YT channel. Good luck and regards from Switzerland, Silvano

Thanks for this Video! I also upgraded to lithum on my Dean 365. I installed a 50 A DC to DC charger at the starboard alternator to charge my lithum house battery in bad weather conditions. That works without any problems. My Dean 365 SV Enjoy is still in the caribean and until now it wasn't necessary but it is a good solution. I placed the batterys in a dry storage compartment in the starboard aft cabin. Ricky from SV Lady Africa (also a dean 365) recommend that because corrosion should be the killer for that new battery systems. He is the most professionel guy that i know for yacht energy systems. I installed also the dc to dc charger and the mppt solar charger in the same storage compartment. The start battery is still in the middle hull compartment like yours. Enjoy your new power boatlife and the coffee in the morning! :)

It was fun watching you work and I enjoyed your running commentary. Very nice system! The next time you need to work on your batteries, you might think about cleaning all the corroded terminals with scotch bright pad, then clean with rubbing alcohol, and then coat all contact surfaces with anti-oxidation paste before you reassemble. Enjoy!

Great job! I made the same setup 3 years ago, without the paralelle balancer , was not available at the time! But my two banks of batteries stay at the same voltage! Do you see really the need of that balancer?

Mooie topic. Precies waar ik ook al een geruime tijd mee bezig ben. Twijfelde of China lifepo 4 wel geschikt waren voor Victron. Ja dus. 👍

Zo ga ik t ook doen..! Geniet ervan ;)

Have you done anything to protect the alternator on the engine? I assume you also can charge not only by solar or shore power. Cheers.

Hi sir Parallel module is it helpful for the battery while charging and discharging

no bluetooth for such money ! crazy invertor

Thanks for the informative vid,Do you active balance using the daly?

It will be dangerous for people that follow your movie!!! Please add a warning inside the movie, that you are NOT using your alternators to charge this Lifepo4 batteries!! (you mention is in the comments, but most viewers will NOT read all the comments) ALSO there is nothing mention in this movie, about general safety's like mainfuses, main switches etc. It is very important to check also your general safetys are up to date, because lifepo4 is more powerfull as your lead acids batteries. Batteries on a boat need horizontal and vertically support also. LIFEPO4 IS NOT JUST REPLACE YOUR LEAD ACID BATTERIES
