BFL13 and any other SiO2 owners:
In January we purchased a pair of Soneil 260ah, 6v batteries from Azmuth Solar.
We currently have a single 170 watt solar panel on the roof of our camper going to a Victron 100/30 smart controller. We also have a 100 watt portable going to a Victron 100/20 controller. Both controllers are hooked up separately to our battery bank. All works well!
We also have a Victron BMV-712 battery monitor, that we purchased when our first set of Crown 6v AGM batteries failed. Two years later (January 2021) our second set failed, so we purchased the Soneil batteries from Azmuth.
For jollies, I'm trying to make a list of SiO2 owners, their setups, and any experiences they may contribute. I have no intentions of publicly listing anyone's name, unless it's OK'd by them.
I'm hoping you'll add to the list.
Thanks,
Perry
