We live aboard our antique sailboat, Temptress, where we (Emily and Clark) fix almost everything ourselves. Today’s Capable Cruising Guide video is a follow-up from last week, when we talked about adding Lithium to a Lead battery system. This week, we talk about why everyone should have Lead in their Lithium system. It could make the difference between surviving a major mishap, or needing to be towed home!
After putting this video up a guy in Europe gave it a try and did an amazing job if tracking the performance of the system. Check out his page to see what is actually happening with all the power in his hybrid system. https://wildebus.com/hybrid-battery-bank-introduction/
