    How much damage will LFP get from being in the cold?

    What about high heat like 130F in the middle of summer? Ecoflow has low temp shutoff so it sounds like it will just cut off in the winter most of the time and likely barely be able to charge from the solar.

    MPPT vs 12v to 12v For Lead Acid

    If i want to charge a Lead acid Battery With a Regulated 12V output, would i be better off with a MPPT That can handle Lead acid, or an isolated 12V DC to DC Charger That can handle Lead acid?

    How much damage will LFP get from being in the cold?

    I plan to put a LFP battery in my car with an inverter, and a charger that keeps the 12v car battery charged so that it can power some lights even with the engine off. I was going to do a power queen self heating 100ah, but by time I do that, mppt, inverter e.t.c I'm at like $700. An...

    10awg or 12awg?

    Why do you say 10awg when literally everyone and everything else says 12awg? and my Bluetti Adapter is 12awg for a 30A Cable? Why won't 12awg work?

    Cant fit 10AWG into an XT60, And was told I cant use 12AWG, So what do I do?

    I will be using 36V 20A through it for an hour or two at a time now, And then in the future it will be hooked up 24/7.

    Cant fit 10AWG into an XT60, And was told I cant use 12AWG, So what do I do?

    Well the Bluetti Wire is Enclosed in a Thick Casing. As for my Setup, its Lowes Single Single Strand wire, So its not enclosed. I was planning to do 10 Feet, But if I had to do more like 4 Feet then I definitely could, And I guess I would have to if this 10AWG doesn't fit into the XT60? i would...

    Cant fit 10AWG into an XT60, And was told I cant use 12AWG, So what do I do?

    Continuing my Previous post asking if i could use 12awg for 36V 20A or if I would need 10AWG, I was told that I needed 10AWG. So I bought it even though XT60 Plugs are only rated for 12awg, And I'm having a problem soldering it because its so tight in the connector. i bought some flux and will...

    10awg or 12awg?

    Unfortunate that its white, And the photos kind of look like some cheap hand wrapped thing. Its also pretty expensive. Not sure why it says 60A when 10AWG is rated for 30A, But if I can confirm that 10awg will fit and they have black, then this should work. I'm sure they then charge a bunch for...

    10awg or 12awg?

    Hopefully 10awg will fit then. where can I buy some quality wire? preferably the two wires sealed together so its cleaner? amazon is garbage, and walmart has nothing.

    10awg or 12awg?

    I literally specified everything that i was doing lol I am going 3x xt60 into 1x xt60 in series and will be running 36V 20A through it, I don't need an extension cord. i managed to find the manufacturer website where they recommend 12awg, so I will be using my 12awg.

    10awg or 12awg?

    Im making a 3x xt60 in series into a 1x xt60 cable, it will be 10 feet running 36V 20A through. (or maybe I could do like 16 feet if that would still be safe?) 12AWG is rated for 20A, so am I good with 12AWG, or do I need to buy 10AWG? everything online said 10AWG wouldn't fit in an xt60 plug...

    Where can i get a 3x XT60 to 1x XT60 Series adapter?

    Ebay has the same 2 XT60 into 1 that I mentioned, Which are cheap stuff made for RC Cars. How would I be able to use two of those to combine 3 into 1 if they are all 12v and I need 36V? Those are also triangle shaped, They aren't a straight wire, so it would be a mess.

    Where can i get a 3x XT60 to 1x XT60 Series adapter?

    After My last Post, I need to find a way to Wire 3x 12V XT60 Connectors in Series, So that I can have 36V with a 20A Load. The only connectors I can find are 2x xt60 into 1 for RC cars, and that's not going to work. Where can I get a 3x XT60 in Series going into 1? I already have an Anker 5x...
