Arkpak Buck Boost converter questions

[msand1977]

Just as an experiment. I have the Arkpak plugged into the AC charger and the Fridge plugged into the Arkpak. The Arkpak is still going in and out of charge mode. The fridge pulls a max of I think 4 amps and the charger is is rated at 7 amps. Am I missing something?

I ran this way in my hot garage from 11am to 5pm. Hooked up to AC power the charger would not stay in charge mode. I started out with 100% and ended with 89%. So even with shore power the Arkpak can’t keep up with my fridge usage? I’m pretty sure if the charger stayed in charge mode the battery wouldn’t get drained as much, just like when I’m hooked up to full sun solar.

Something‘s going on with your ArkPak. I have the 730 being charged on AC in my garage with a Dometic 75DZ plugged in, both empty compartments set to freeze 0* & 4*, very inefficient setup on my part. Battery stays topped off with charge & float cycles, rarely dipping below 100% even with hot temps around here lately. Battery is a Walmart marine 105 ah SLA, nothing fancy. Good luck with this, looking forward to your eventual solution/fix.

Unfortunately, I was told everything is working correctly.
