Re: Switch to LiFePO4
Hi,
In the long run it is even more advisable to abandon the traditional car batterie style and take one 24 volt 400, 500 or 600Ah lithium batterie instead building it up from 12 or 24 volt sections.

Re: Switch to LiFePO4
Yes, and you should cut the altinator so that batteries are not always loaded in full during a long drive

Re: Onan shuts down under load without shutdown codes

Re: 175A alternator belts
We have the 175A LN alternator on a Yanmar 4JH3TE with double pulleys on the LN Alternator, and single on the 12V alternator.
All three belts are the same... Dayco cogged belts, no idlers, A section

Re: 175A alternator belts
I have adjusted the alignment and it is spot on.
My theory is that I have been using B section belts (17mm) and the alt pulley has 84mm diameter. (This was what was on the boat when I bought her in

Re: 175A alternator belts
Hi Nick
Have you checked the pully alignment? Miss alignment will cause excessive belt wear
Hope this helps

Re: Switch to LiFePO4
Battle Born was not very explicit about it in the Zoom meeting last week but in the long run it is very much advisable to use the 24 volt units instead of the 12 volt units.

Re: Run 2500w inverter always even on shore power?
Agreed Scott,
Separate charger/inverter is the way to go with Victron and solves this problem once and for all. Just adding sensors all over my boat to measure anything I can think of at the moment.

175A alternator belts
The saga goes on. The belts for my 24v Leece Neville 175a alternator do not last and produce dust.
So I have been scratching my head....and coming to some conclusions....

Re: Switch to LiFePO4
Look at the BattleBorn site; you will find an area which says ‘ask us’. They should know the answer as they support Victron.
Good luck and keep us posted...

Re: Tips appreciated: Major frustration trying to pull cable through Mizzen.
Hello Scott,
Better feed the foam line back into the mast. Imagine 20m wire swinging in the mast, that might also ruin the wires, beside possible noise.

I have written a short replacement procedure instruction. I attach it as PDF. I'm sure some more will need to replace the old
