Redarc The Manager30 Battery Management System with Lithium Profile

See what our Experts say about this Redarc Battery Charger

• Amperage/Wattage Max Input for The Manager30 Battery Management System
  The max input amperage the The Manager30 Battery Management System with Lithium Profile # RED88FR can handle is 50 amps which in watts is 600. The input voltage range is between 9 volts and 32 volts for DC or 110 volts for AC. There isn't a set max amount of panels you could use with this but you'd need to stay under 600 watts and you'd be fine. This does use MPPT technology charging.

• Can I Use The Manager30 Battery Management System with an Automatic Transfer Switch Inverter
  Yes. You can use the RedArc The Manager30 Battery Management System with Lithium Profile # RED88FR with an inverter/charger that has an automatic transfer switch. My contact at RedArc mentioned that because the Manager30 is a battery charger working off AC mains (shore) power, you need to ensure this Manager30 AC circuit is ‘only’ supplied via mains power and not inverter power as part of the AC auto transfer. I was able to confirm this with my tech contact at RedArc.

• Is Redarc Manager30 Battery Management System Good Choice for Two Lithium Batteries
  The The Manager30 Battery Management System with Lithium Profile # RED88FR that you referenced is correct for your application. It works with your type of batteries and puts out enough amperage to keep them charged as well. A 30 amp charge on a 12 volt battery is a very solid charge. The batteries will still charge very quickly with 30 amps ran to them. Most battery chargers don't supply a fraction of that. This only is designed to charge batteries and does not supply AC power to the...

• How to Keep Lithium Battery on Camper Charged from Truck Alternator
  If you have an alternative way to adequately charge your new lithium battery on your RV when it is not in transit, the amperage drop due to the lower gauge wires on your won't really matter and will still provide you with a sufficient trickle charge from your alternator; this also will not harm your alternator in doing this. With that being said, if you don't have a sufficient charging source for this battery, you'll need to use something like the RedArc Manager30 Battery Manager # RED88FR...

• What Size Battery Bank Is Needed for the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric Leveling System
  I spoke with Lippert about the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric 5th Wheel RV Leveling System part # LC358590 and they informed me that the most important aspect is that the battery/batteries are sufficiently charged, between 12.4 to 12.6 volts. That said, the size of battery/battery bank needed is going to vary based on several other factors so it would difficult to estimate this. However, the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric 5th Wheel RV Leveling System does not draw power constantly...

• How Many House Batteries Do I Need for My Solar System
  You'll need to add at minimum 1 battery and you could add as many as 3 since solar systems of this size typically recommend between 4-6 house batteries to store all of the power produced by almost 800w of solar panels. For reference, the Go Power Solar AE-6 All Electric System with 2 MPPT Solar Controllers - 1,140 Watt Solar Panels # 342-75011 you were looking at recommends between 4 and 8 batteries for use with that system. The other thing you might want to consider is getting an active...

• Does The Progressive Dynamics 1000 Watt Inverter # PD94FR Detect The Battery Type Connected?
  The Progressive Dynamics 1000 Watt Inverter # PD94FR is not able to automatically detect the type of battery it is connected to. There is also not a switch which allows you to tell the Inverter if you are connected to either lithium or a lead acid battery. It would be best to integrate the inverter with a Battery Management System # RED88FR so you can protect your lithium batteries by disconnecting power when it reaches a certain state of charge.

• Upgrading A 2021 Forest River GT5 To Lithium Batteries
  From what you're saying you're trying to have 6 batteries total (2 original lead acid batteries + 4 - 12v 100ah batteries as a separate battery bank). Unfortunately you won't be able to charge the lead acid batteries with the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger - Lithium - 12V - 60 Amps Item # PD9160ALV since it's designed for lithium batteries. Doing so could overcharge them and cause them to crack. You'll also want to ensure you have the proper wire gauge...

• Charger Options for RV with 36 Volt and 12 Volt Battery Bank
  The # RED88FR can charge a single 12 volt battery bank setup (multiple batteries in one bank) but it cannot charge multiple banks and also can only charge 12 volt setups. For a 36 volt setup as well you'd need the part # 329-GX3626 in addition.

• Recommended Power Management Solution for Lithium Batteries on Truck Bed Camper
  The Progressive Dynamics # PD4045LICSV is the correct part you're looking for to swap the converter in your power distribution box and you could use the GoPower # 34276119 as your solar controller, but I have a better solution for you. I'll add that I'm not familiar with the Blue Sea part that you've mentioned and since we don't offer those products I can't confirm whether the part you're seeking is available but we would typically recommend using some sort of isolator. I recommend looking...

• Can I Use 6v Batteries Wired In Series For Extended Boondocking with AC Unit
  You would need at least 4 of the # BRW84FR batteries to give you the bare minimum that you'll require to consider being able to make this work for you, and I would strongly recommend going upwards of 8 batteries because of the extended period of time that you'll be off grid. Because batteries can only drain so much, and because you're going to be pulling almost half of the power off of one of the # BRW84FR batteries in just 1 hour of AC use (150ah), you could easily run through 50% of your...

• Will Redarc Manager30 Work With 240V Power Supply?
  The Manager30 Battery Management System with Lithium Profile # RED88FR is only designed for 110V. We don't carry the 240V version you referenced as it isn't compatible with North America shore power so you would need to get a 240v to 110v step down power converter. If you are willing to move away from the shore power charger to a battery power charger, we have a solution for your Lithium battery.

• Portable Heater Options for Camper Van
  It's always a good idea to think ahead. The Flex-a-lite Mojave Vehicle Heater # FLX640 is more of a permanent installation so if you plan on moving the heater frequently we'll want to look at something else like part # RA3501 that uses a bolt-on installation, but it's small enough that you should be able to move it around and secure it to a variety of locations. I'm attaching a link to our selection of heaters that are normally used for camper applications. Some of them use 12V power while...

• AGM Battery Charging Recommendation Between Smart Charger or Solar Panel
  If your trailer is going to be parked near an outlet when you aren't using it then a smart charger will be more cost-effective and still sufficiently charge your battery, but if your trailer isn't near an outlet then you'll need to go with solar panels. I personally like the solar panel setup the best because it means your batteries can virtually be charged anywhere there is sun but a lot of this has to do with your budget so below is what I recommend out of either system - pricing can...

• Does The Manager30 Replace Solar Panel Controller
  Yes, the The Manager30 Battery Management System with Lithium Profile # RED88FR takes place of the solar controller for your current solar panel system. Solar panel controllers are used to help manage the power coming in from the panels and since The Manager30 does the same thing it actually can't be installed with a solar panel controller. The Manager30 is definitely an upgrade though as it pulls power from the solar panels and your vehicle start batter (via the alternator). It prioritizes...
