100AH will be more than fine for what you're describing. I recently built my own DIY 100AH lifep04 battery. I tested it with the fridge running in my truck, all doors and windows closed, 80-90 degrees daytime temps and the fridge empty (air is much harder to keep cold than food). It ran for 5...

Inside and with caps on, I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Assuming your Y plugs use MC4 connectors you could get some of these to cap them: https://www.emarineinc.com/MC-4-Terminator-Caps Also assuming these are MC4 connectors I don't think it's too risky to just leave them as is, maybe with some electrical tape over them. I don't think you would...

Posted on page 1 but here they are again: https://batteryhookup.com/products/new-battery-hookup-lifep04-32650-3-2v-5000mah-cells-1 And I just noticed they now have this package that includes a BMS (not as nice as the one I used but probably perfectly fine and much cheaper)...

finished my battery build. I ended up using an Apache case from harbor freight. I capacity tested the battery at around 110 AH.

It's below 32 degrees from what I've read. Discharge is fine, charge not so much.

That does look like the same one. Mine included the USB box but it's entirely possible I'll never use that. I got the 150A version from CC but only because that's all they offered, a 100A version would have been more than enough for my needs. My cells should be showing up today according to...

I'm really new to all of this DIY Lithium stuff but there's a good forum over at diysolarforum.com and current connected seems to be a trusted vendor over there. Also, I've spoken to the owner Dexter a few times now, actually just got off the phone with him about some BMS settings questions...

It can be purchased without BMS and then you can add your own, with bluetooth. I went with this one: https://store.currentconnected.com/product/jbd/ I think there are some other options out there for less if you don't mind buying from aliexpress

Nice and slim probably because they are only 20AH.

I just bought a set of those to build my own battery from, they should be here in a couple of days. That said, I don't think these are either the smallest or lightest cells out there if that is a concern. I think they are kind of heavy and bulky. I went with them because they are cylindrical...

Sounds like you got it figured out but I'm thinking that 50' of 10AWG was causing a whole lot of voltage drop, creating issues for you as well. You might still want to consider shortening that or going to a heavier duty wire. Now that you're wired in serial you're not pushing nearly as many...

I regularly blow out the fan and coil area with compressed air and I do usually notice a slight improvement in how it operates when it’s nice and clean. But I’m more focused on what is happening when it’s not running. I’ll get a dedicated thermometer when I get home and compare it to the LED...

I’m dealing with the battery situation shortly but what I’m observing with the fridge is how quickly the temp (yes, I’m using the built in gauge) rises in between the compressor cycling. I feel like in the past it would have stayed colder for much longer in between cycles

I've got something like this. I use it a few times a summer (when fire bans allow of course) when I get the itch to cook something over charcoal, sometimes I'll even throw in some chunks of wood too if I'm feeling fancy. Packs down super small as well.

I've got an ARB Classic 50qt, maybe 5 years old and I've got the insulation wrapper on it. Lately it seems like it's running very frequently and just doesn't stay cold for as long as it used to. Today, it's an overcast rainy day in Oregon and it's maybe 70 degrees. I've got the back hatch...

Weighing it would definitely be best but I was hoping to have the rear suspension installed and ready to go when I pickup the GFC. Maybe that's unrealistic though. I am starting to think that my estimate is really low.

Hey there, I'm hoping to maybe find someone who has gone through this previously, ideally on a gen 1 raptor but that may not be totally necessary since I just need to know about how much to figure in weight. I've got a GFC on order and it should be built in a couple of months. I'm starting to...

I like that but it's a little plain for me. I'm looking for something with a little more flair :oops:

I've been shopping as well and see a few of the older ones for sale. The research I've done so far is telling me that I want a '14 or newer though, apparently that is when they fixed the front end issues. Anyone else confirm that?
