Changing to Lithium batteries!

Be aware you must buy a proper Lithium system like a teambmpro.com/products/high-amp-battery-...tem-batteryplus35ha/ (Australian Made in Melbourne)
and the add on to do Lithium charging teambmpro.com/products/odyssey-touch-screen-display-rv-monitor/

BE AWARE:- the Lithium batteries that you buy MUST have an inbuilt Battery Management System (BMS) otherwise the batteries won't last!

The ones I bought were:- www.edisons.com.au/x-cell-100ah-12v-lith...r-camping-4wd-solar/ X2

Everything was on special, Yee Harr!

Cheers

Don't forget:
Lithium batteries must be handled carefully, and can catch fire, or explode if compromised, or charged incorrectly.

If you don't use the battery for a while:
Storage charge should be around 40 to 50%, otherwise the battery will degrade rapidly.

They will be inside under the seats and will always be at almost 100%.
