HI
Im looking for suggestions for a lithium battery pack for an rv trailer that will be used in film and tv production. The company I work for has several of these trailers and we use 6v golf carts batteries in packs of 4 or 8 and as you can imagine they add a lot of weight to the already heavy trailer. The batteries are 6 volt s and they have 190 amp/hr at the 5hr rate and they are 66 lbs.
What I am looking for is a battery pack with a lighter chemistry that can deliver approximately as much as 8 of the 6v batteries we are using now, in a 24 v pack. It has to be safe with no chance of fire. Cost is an issue, I am looking for the best bang for my buck. I am good with wiring so I have no problem putting together the battery pack. For an inverter we use Victron inverter/chargers, which can charge lithium batteries. There would also be a separate solar charging system.
I am looking for suggestions on where to buy the batteries and hardware, not a completed pack, that would be too expensive
Im in Canada so any North American supplier would be OK
Im not sure on how to do the math on the size of our battery packs so if someone could help me do the math to figure out the size of a pack with 4s x 6v 190 Amp/hr x 2p that would be a great help
Thanks
Peter
