Qué cubre este vídeo
A 314-amp-hour SOK lithium battery and 400 watts of solar panels replace a lead-acid battery bank in a Living Quarters horse trailer to eliminate reliance on a generator for lights, fans, and refrigeration.1:02 The installation includes a Victron Smart Solar MPPT 130 charge controller and a Victron BlueSmart charger, which connects to the existing 120-volt outlet to provide lithium-compatible charging from shore power or the generator.1:57 The solar array consists of four 100-watt panels wired in a series-parallel configuration to remain within the 100-volt limit of the charge controller.16:57 Rivets with expanding backs secure the solar mounting feet and roof entry gland to the trailer roof, preventing sharp screw points from protruding into the interior.13:47 The system uses the SOK battery’s internal Bluetooth monitoring for state-of-charge data, omitting a separate shunt to simplify the installation.23:04 The air conditioner and 120-volt outlets remain powered exclusively by the generator or shore power.5:57
