Another Lithium Post/Question

[268BH]

I'm thinking of doing the same. Have 200 watt solar panel on roof. 300 ah lithium battery...any battery recommendations? Leave the converter as-is. Run a 3500w generator to charge the battery with WFCO. My question is will this will take all day if the battery is depleted?

I was looking at this charger to go direct from generator to battery. Amazon.com

Do you think it will work? Apologies for basic questions. Newbie. Thanks.

if you are using that generator and the 80amp charger then it will take about 4 hours to bring it up to a full charge from empty, but you have 200 watts of solar so that will add 40 to 50Ah on a good day which will take some time off the generator time. if you use the factory convertor then yes your looking at running it all day pretty much. the ideal set up would be to add a couple or three more 200 watt solar panels. if you have 4 of them (800 watts) it will almost fill that battery from empty on its own leaving your generator for emergency use only. you could also do different panels if the four 200s wont fit, maybe two 400's or two 450watt panels will instead.

I ordered one of the Redodo ones off of Amazon. Group 24 100ah w/Bluetooth $199 Of course I have not used it for any time at all but it seems to be doing its job so far. Good reviews. And the company sent me an email to ask a question or two and make sure I was happy. So far so good.
