Micro Minnie 2108 - lithium battery and other electrical upgrades
I upgraded our 2022 2108FBS from the stock lead acid to 2x 200ah litium batteries. I also modified some of the electrical systems to accommodate the upgrade.
The batteries were moved from the trailer tounge to under the bed. I rerouted and upgraded the wires (4awg) from the WFCO 8955AD. I added a Victron Lynx Distributor to make thing more organized.
The routing goes something like this:
From the WFCO to the Lynx Distributor. The batteries also connect to the distributor. Now comes the change.
Before, the battery went from the trailer tounge to the bus bar then, to a shutoff, in the baggage compartment, then to the WFCO. Now, it goes from the distributor to the shut off then to the bus bar on the tounge. This gives me the ability to shutoff power to the tounge.
The last connection only the distributor went to the Victron MPPT controller I also added a shut to the solar panels.
A smart shunt was added as well.
I purposefully designed this upgrade to not have an inverter. I don't have a need for TV, and microwave. I do have a duel fuel generator to handle those needs.
I am very have with the results.
