One unreplaceble battery one point of failure. You also mentioned the components can be replaced. I take it the replacement is done by the manufacturer in which case you need to send it off if there is a fault. At least with Victron you can order a replacement and get it next day, Both system have good and bad points. Also if you read the spec, the input and output voltage/ampage are limited. I will stick with victron as it may take more space but it easier to expand if and when required and more importantly if a battary fails i can pop to where ever to get a replacement quicker than going through the rigmarole of having to send the whole unit back and being without power for days/weeks.

I'm confused by the solar charging it says it takes 400watts from 50volts at 15 amps. Which suggests that it's totally fine accepting 750 watts of solar power input. Does it automatically handle that if you start cramming in 750 watts, or does it shut off if you exceed 400 watts? Also, there's no mention of UPS functionality. Can this provide uninterrupted power in the event of a power outage (for computer equipment)? (less than 30 ms switchover time after power outage?) It's good to know that you can charge with solar+cigarette socket simultaneously, never considered that one... Can it do AC, cigarette, and solar all simultaneously? Does the cigarette lighter share the 400watt limit with the solar? These are all weird numbers (typical of these systems) Charge rate is 500 - 1000 watts for cigarette socket (How?) charge rate is 750 from mains charge rate is 400 from solar So what is the charge rate? Can you get a 1000+750+400 = 2150 watt charge rate if you use all three simultaneously? 3000 watt output with a max (theoretical) 2150 watt charge rate (that's probably more like 750) so that means that if you were running this thing constantly at full load, you'd have to stop for a few hours to charge it up again... Strange device... How does it actually pull 1000 watts from a cigarette socket without blowing up the wiring in the vehicle? Most vehicles these days cannot even handle a 400 watt continuous drain on the cigarette socket without melting the wiring in the dashboard.

Ecoflow Delta pro can output 30A on the Anderson port and has a higher capacity for solar charging. I got 4x 160wp renogy panels hooked up to it. Charging at a decent rate while driving is also possible, not simultaneously with solar though. Got it for 2200 euros with the Kickstarter campaign, so couldn't be happier haha. This seems like a valid option though!

I was very interested in this as i am looking for a 300ah solution for my motorhome. I have specced it on the clayton website and turns out (and this is without a solar panel) it will come to over £8864. Thats for an LPS ll 3000 and a CPG4 Extension battery 100ah (which is confusing as the website says you cannot add extra batteries to the LPS ll 3000). And thats without any installation costs. So, i'm going to get a quote for a Victron installation and see how much that is going to cost using Li Time mini batteries as i'm tight for space. Great video though.
