lithium question
Can you charge lithium batteries with a regular charger or do I need to buy a special charger?

Why would you replace 2 new AGM batteries (good for 5+ years) with overpriced Lithiums…in 5 years the prices will be even lower. Assuming the cells I bought finally arrive, building a LifePo4 battery for $1/AH makes them price comparative with AGMs but 3X the cycles.
Yep. And that’s why We are going to live with the 6 volt AGM’s for awhile and see how it goes. I will jump through a few hoops to make it work if I can, but camping under trees kinda takes the solar solution off the table. We usually move every few days but we don’t go usually very far before we are in our next camping and hiking spot so on the road charging may not be very effective. So if it doesn’t work with the 2 X 6 volt AGM’s it’s either a little portable propane inverter generator or upgrade to a couple of 31 LFP’s. The trailer (and SUV) don’t arrive until early 2022 so until then it’s kinda watch and learn what others are doing.
Cheers.
