Sailing Good, Bad, and Ugly · vídeo

O que este vídeo aborda

The crew of Good, Bad, and Ugly installs a 400-amp-hour lithium battery bank and a 3000-watt inverter-charger to upgrade the vessel's electrical system for off-grid living.6:46 The project involves building a custom wooden battery box and mounting the inverter, charge controllers, fuses, and bus bars in the aft quarter.6:30 To maximize solar efficiency, the four 144-watt solar panels are wired into two separate systems to mitigate the impact of shading.5:29 The installation uses Battle Born batteries and Victron components, which connect via Bluetooth to a smartphone app for real-time monitoring of state-of-charge, wattage, and amperage.15:23 The system excludes shore power and alternator charging, as the existing alternator is incompatible with lithium.12:37 Additionally, the crew replaces existing snaps on the dodger with stainless steel hardware from Sailrite to prevent corrosion.13:45 The new electrical capacity allows the boat to power a refrigerator continuously without needing ice.15:20
