Dakota Lithium Battery & Renogy 100w Solar Panel Ham Radio Power

[@k5jrx3]

love power poles. Have built a power distribution "control panel" for my ham shack desk. Controls lighting, chargers, auxiliary fans for power supplies and radios etc. Was a fun and useful project. Have some pics on my QRZ. 73

SAFETY FIRST! Your the Elmer here push DC safety too. Mains/Catastrophe fuses or breakers AT the Power Source be it a Battery or Power supply or Solar! Don't rely on the BMS! Your vehicles have a fusible link at the battery so should any DC power source! Keep the content coming! THANKS!

I don't know what any of that means but it sounds important. I have this same battery but I'm unsure how to charge it. I assume I should not use the anderson connectors that go from my solar panel to my Bluetti power station.

I am using 24v settings can you tell me what to set my controller on for hi voltage and low voltage and float voltage for lithium battery's

[@AnthonyPerez]

Awesome. I like the setup for solar.

I may be wrong but the model linked in the description doesn't seem to include the charge controller. There are Renogy starter kits on Amazon that include a charge controller for the same price but it doesn't seem to be the same one depicted in the hosh's video. So you might want to research a bit more before ordering so you aren't surprised by what is actually shipped. If I am wrong here please post a comment indicating such and sorry in advance if I am spreading false info, it's not my intent to do so. Also really enjoying all of Hosh's videos and streams. I'm new to Ham and while a lot of what is discussed goes over my head (lots of foreign acronyms) I am learning a lot. Thanks.

Nice work, I can't wait to get on hf.

I love your channel man. I have a 300W solar charge controller that says it needs 20-50 volts input to work. My 150W solar panel puts put 18 volts. Do I need to get a new controller?

12/1/2020... I went to the Dakota site. 10Ah battery with charger is $128. 11 year warranty. Free shipping. GREAT PRICE!

[@sandraabarca6029]

Thanks for the info and your efforts to put this together .🍺🤠🎙👍

[@primitivex5221]

Where did you get the breakout box ?

[@billryland6199]

Did that charge controller cause RF interference? A lot of them do. Is it compatible with lithium batteries? How many amps did you draw from the 10 AH battery?

[@OH8STN]

Outstanding video. I don't know how I missed it previously. Portable power for ham radio is one of my passions Great job 👍👍👍 73 Julian oh8stn

Thank you!

Renogy 100W kit for cheaper than harbor freight 100w.... that is awesome. Great find and great info. Interested in that battery.

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

I was very impressed by both the panel and the battery. They worked perfectly.

[@tookthe5th182]

Do not, I repeat do not buy Harbor Freight Panels. They are junk compared to this panel. Mono panels are the best.

[@kschrouder]

Renogy not Renergy

[@kevinokeefe7796]

Price went up considerably

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Look likes it’s still $99.

[@kevinokeefe7796]

Can you post a link The one I see for 99 is only the panel nothing else.

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

OH, I thought you were speaking of the battery, let me check the panel. Looks like same price I payed. amzn.to/2PjYhDs

[@jay-rus4437]

26.75oz translates to 2lbs-14oz? Not sure your scale is working

[@vinniec5286]
