We live aboard our antique sailboat, Temptress, where we (Emily and Clark) fix almost everything ourselves. Today’s Capable Cruising Guide video is all about Lead vs. Lithium Batteries—how they work, how to combine them, and how not to screw it up! This is a boat hack that the Lithium salespeople don’t want you to know about, but if you do it right, it can save you a ton of money.
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/
