Litium battery question

[fastfred]

I have run both types and mostly the Lithium for the past few years. areovoltz is the one kitfox put in mine I think. It works fine if you don't run it down too far . They do have their own charger that is complicated to use. I also use a lithium maintainer / charger than works fine also. the answer to your question is no you do not need to keep a charger on it when there is no load.

On my Remos I recently traded the odyssey for An Antigravity lithium battery with more power and saved 12 lbs. They are much less than the earthx and it fit in my existing box. Google them.

I would never do this intentionally and haven't done it accidentally. I would use the formula to see what it theoretically could do.

I estimate I can go approximately 2 hours on the EarthX 680 battery after loosing my charging system running one G3X 10" screen, com radio, transponder and a few other circuits. Lights and trim are part of my essential bus, but are intermittent loads aren't included, but are available. I bypassed my master solenoid, so the coil is not part of the load. I believe my load is between 5-6 amps when I go to my essential bus.
