Re: Amel is going lithium
I am not familiar with the sizing on the Mastervolt inverter/chargers, but for Victron their 8000va model was too heavy for my piece of mind.
Agree with you on keeping the genset. I rarely run it but

Here’s the lithium difference: we also have about the same solar 3x LG315s. We’re in FP. Nice sunny days.

At the risk of costing you some money on upgrades, I will say that being able to run all the 220v appliances without the genset is one of the biggest advantages of having lithium. Especially the

Re: Amel is going lithium
Paul,
You should try to run one of the AC units on battery for a few hours one night. Once the room is cooled (aft cabin in our case), the compressor duty cycle is 25-35% in my experience. Of course,

Re: Mango Sail sizes
Gerry,
I like all Amel models, including the newest 50 and 60. Some models are an evolution of previous Amels, and some models break new ground like some of the first models Henri Amel made.
