Charge from RV Lithium's

[Duncan]

Charging from the lithium batteries in my van conversion. Plugged charger into 120VAC outlet in van. Outlet rating is 15 Amps max. DC to AC van Inverter rating is 15 Amps max. I set max charging rate on bike to a conservative 8 Amps. Works slick.

How fast do you get a charge with the 120 set up you have there?

 

[Duncan]

The 120VAC outs in my van are 15 amp max rating, same as most household outlets, so same speed as if you plugged into your home outlet. Like a few hours. Realize it will only charge at the maximum amps you set in your Stark Varg settings on the phone. I am usually not in a rush so I set mine at 8 amps to be easy on the batteries.

I do the same thing at MX track. Plug in after every session, keeps me going all day.

I have three 100 amp hour lithium batteries in my RV, I’m gonna see what I can do as far as charging my bike. Thank you.

That's about 3.6kwh of capacity, so half a charge after inverter / charger losses?

Oof, that’s not much. I’ll have to run the generator.
