Dometic PLB-40 (Portable Lithium Battery) $350 - Durango, CO

[natkidder]

Good condition, a few exterior scuffs but works perfectly.

Put a 100 Ah battery in my truck bed so I have no use for this anymore.

Has a built in solar charge controller- plug your portable solar panel straight in.

Includes both AC and DC charging cables.

Local pickup only.

What’d you use this for and what kind of charge life did you get from it?

Used it as a general power source when camping... charging phones and lanterns and nice to have inside the tent on extended trips and it's light and portable so easy to move around.

More recently I had it in the backseat of my Tundra charging from the stock DC/cigarette plug while simultaneously powering the Dometic fridge (CFX45). The truck's charging ports are ignition on only so the battery would only be charging while I was driving but I let it sit powering the fridge without itself being charged for days... I don't think I ever let it sit for more than 3-4 days but I never saw the charge drop below 30%.

Obviously if it were 100 degrees outside I wouldn't expect it to power the fridge for as long but it impressed me for a 40Ah unit.

I did notice that the battery would drop through it's initial 10% faster and then would seem to discharge more slowly below 90%.
