Very easy to understand the features and benefits, for any age and gender. 2. You didn’t get into all the details sometimes we don’t care about, not everyone is a super technical person. 3. Video production was great, good lighting and voice. 4. You gave a great value presentation, why it’s worth looking into to save some $ 5. Great add on suggestions that will be helpful in a real life usages. Thank you for making this short but ver informative video! Two thumbs up 👍 👍

​​@@minivancampergal1554 On skoolie and other home-built forums, we suggest: * acquire a suitable candidate * toss in some car-camping gear * go have fun. Allow the conversion to evolve organically. . [edited to add] Build then use risks forcing the adventure to fit the rig.

I thought it was just a battery and then BAM at 2:35 all the electronic bits are there in a nice package.

Just get a standard inverter and connect to the 12v terminals directly. 100ah battery will. Support a 500 to 750 watt. As for your comment about fire danger LifPo4 batteries are not the flammable chemistry of older aircraft / industrial Lithium batteries.

I have 2 of these. I really like the battery. I also have a Jackery 1000. This holds more wattage than the Jackery. I charge it up at home and bring it on weekend camping trips. We have a 12V fridge that you can plug right into it. The Jackery is only rated for 500 charges and discharges where lithium Iron Phosphate of the Dr. Prepare should go over 2000. Most things camping like my 12 v fridge and charging up cell phones are DC power. I actually bring along my Jackery and this, cause I can charge the Jackery off the cig lighter driving places, and I haven't needed solar panels for 3-4 day outings. I pair the battery with a multiport cigarette usb charger and the family can charge bunches of devices off with this battery. If the Jackery runs out of juice, this is my backup for the fridge. Works great!

Time tested review. Love it! Thanks for sharing your experience.

I designed a similar set up with less than $300. I got the redodo battery for $220, a redodo ac to dc connector that has all my devices connectors, and it charges my laptop with a dc adaptor and usb C. I paid $45 for it. I have a 30a solar charger and an old 100w solar panel from another project for home. and I also have a wall charger just in case. Recently, I bought a pecron 1200 watts with 50 am battery just for camping, and I paid like $260. for it. So I will use my 100 amp battery set up for longer time camping while charging my Pecron at the same time. I do not think I need another inverter than the Pecron. I have a 1000 watts pure sine lying around, but I do not think I need it for short time trips. I will see how this set up works for my camping needs. I have pretend tested it at home, with rainy and very little shiny days and I get up to 4/5 days with moderate use. I do not let my batteries go below 20%. I do not use fuels to cook, but I have a couple of good dc and two ac devices with low wattage usage for cooking. Good information! We do not have to break the bank to have some fun and to have your electrical needs met.

100ah are 219.-229 now as of 9/2023 .. power queen or redodo both are amazing batteries with excellent support.. i go with 200ah redodo batteries. 12v .. I built a 3kw powmr system with 5kwh of battery and 1kw of solar panels.. all for under 2200.00 it can power standard RV ac units as well as the fridge and a couple outlets.

Hi Kelly, your video just showed up on my feed this morning. Great review on the battery. I’ll probably go for one once my AGM battery dies. To answer your question, my electrical system is a DIY system that consists of: Battery DC-DC charge controller Battery Monitor System 1000 Watt inverter Fuse panel Wiring and USB outlets throughout the van I bought two 110 Watt solar panels and a solar charger, but haven’t installed them yet. So far, the DC-DC charger has exceeded my expectations and has kept the battery fully charged. I haven’t touched the battery in over 2 years. You’re absolutely right about getting more power for the same price when you build your own. One thing I would highly recommend is to consult with an electrician when setting up a DIY system.

Here is my take on a campervan electric system:- 8 years ago when I built my (3rd) van I found there was only one item that needed any reasonable amount of power, my coldbox. I keep butter and milk cool and that's it, so I run that only when the engine is running. The rest is USB charging, so that is easily powered by the van battery. When my van battery was up for renewal I fitted the larger one at only €10 extra, but had 50% extra capacity. So my electrical system involves no extra equipment at all. So I save €100s, maybe even €1000s in equipment and my losses are only 1/2lb of butter or 1/2 litre milk per year, living 30-60 nights/year in the van. I always carry a jump starter anyway for emergencies and it's only use to date has been helping someone else. The maths is easy, costs saved €100s per year, losses maybe €2 per year and less to go wrong, or catch fire.

What a great video.

However I think the hub feature is worth that $100 premium since other batteries require an inverter for similar output features. Even though the hub is missing high voltage AC output, it's still worth the extra premium for thata convenience. It is especially worth it for me since my main purpose for this battery will be to power a 12V fridge and nothing else.

You should check out their website. They have several boxes that haven't made it to YT yet.

Twelve volts times ten amps equals 120-Watts. A 300-Watt draw requires bigger cables and stouter fuse/circuit-breaker.

I charge my mac book air using a 12W USB charger all the time, so use that built in USB-C to charge your laptop. It has much less loss than going to AC and back to DC
