What is Needed To Switch To Lithium Batteries and a 2,000W Inverter On The Go Power Weekender Kit?
Question:
I have a 2021 Heartland Fuel 250 which I have installed the GoPower weekender kit with 1500w inverter and 190w solar panel but I still have 2 orginal flooded 12v batteries installed. If I was to upgrade to 12v lithium, what is the increase between charges I would expect to see and should I get 1 or 2 of them? My weekender kit came with a 1500w inverter and im thinking about upgrading to 2000w or bigger. Is that just as simple as unokking everything from the 1500w and installing new inverter in its place? Had it professionally installed previously. Sorry for the added questions but thanks in advance for your help.

The Go Power Lithium RV Battery # 34282738 has a 100-amp hour capacity. You will need to compare this to the current flooded batteries you have installed to determine what increase in capacity will be. Whatever the increase in amp hours is will be the amount of capacity you are increasing.
When you do switch to lithium batteries you will only need to change the charge profile on the Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller that came with the Kit.
If you choose to move to the 2,000 Watt Go Power Industrial Pure Sine Wave Inverter # 34278156 you will need the Installation Kit # 342GPDCKIT4 that will provide you with a larger fuse and thicker wiring due to the increased draw on the larger inverter.
