Charger profiles for LiFePO4 are not 'flooded mode + a guess' — we configure each charging source individually.

Strong tidal streams in the area mean some berths are easier to attend on a slack tide — we plan accordingly.

We've installed dozens of LiFePO4 setups throughout the South Coast, from 100Ah upgrades to full 600Ah liveaboard banks with Victron monitoring throughout.
