How Many Lithium Ion Batteries Are Needed for the Go Power Solar AE-6 All Electric System
Question:
How many lithium batteries do I need for the AE 1140 watt system and get the best bang for the buck. I will be considering staying out 5-10 days or may be more. I have a 2018 Vilano 375 FL with a residential fridge and 3 air conditioners on top knowing I can only use 1AC at a time. Do I need a soft start? I have 2 portable Yamaha gens also. 2K each. Thanks for your help on this. Im ready to buy,

In order to take full advantage of the Go Power Solar AE-6 All Electric System part # 342-75011 you will need a battery bank with at least a 600 Ah (Amp Hour) capacity. This will hold true whether you have lithium ion or lead acid etc batteries. In order to get to the 600 Ah minimum you most likely will need at least six batteries.
In regards to starting the air conditioner with a generator, you just need to make sure the starting amps required for the air conditioner does not exceed that of your generator's output. If you can let me know which exact models you have I would be glad to look this up for you but this information should be printed on a label on the actual unit.
If you need help determining your solar panel requirements, I have attached a help article for you that you will want to look through.
