RE: Lithium Confusion
Speaking from hands on experience with over 4 years now
Our LifePo4 battery system has been in use for the past 4 years now and remains the best ever upgrade to our RV! Put a Life 200amp system in my boat for the trolling motor two years ago and again it's wonderful.
Seeing folks post BS with Zero experience with these batteries is and continues to be a joke at best

RE: Should/will Glacier, Teton and Yellowstone open?
My take they should stay closed for several additional months.
Here in western Montana we are not even close to hittting the peak of the infestation. Last estimate I have seen was for the peak to happen in late May, with the most hospitalizations June, July and August. No need to bring outsiders in while we hold up in place for several months.
I do feel sorry for the small business folks. However lets keep us locals safe as well. Our small population and limited resources could easy be over run.

RE: Microwaves on inverters.
Close to my setup - YES it can easily be done - Ours Works Great
1200 watt inverter microwave used many times during the day but no coffee pot Just yet
Our 2Kw sine wave inverter easily powers the microwave for as long as needed
The other half of the equation the batteries, charging & Metering / monitoring
200amp/hr LiFe battery bank that is dedicated to the inverter and heater blower motor no other house loads. A 220amp/hr lead acid battery bank for house loads. 600watts of solar and when cloudy for extended periods a 4kw generator with both a 100amp and 75amp converters
Build yourself a nice system and you will enjoy it for years to come

RE: Electronic failures, PCB repairs.
Sure a bunch of retirted EE's here - Count me in
Been repairing HDTVs, Converters, Inverters, etc... for many years now
Typically as above a straight forward simple repair process for items that should never be tossed in the trash. Yes today's HDTV can easily be repaired - please do not toss them in the trash

RE: LiFePO4 drop in's are they really a drop in?
Another one to check out, not as technical but worth the time reading
http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread.php?t=982657
We have a 200amp 4 cell prismatic battery in the RV with only cell based voltage metering. It's been in there and fully operational for the past 4 years purchased it after first reading the MainSail mentioned article. One of the best if not the best improvements to the RV over the years.
Picked up two of the 100amp "drop-in" batteries (mentioned in my link) 3 months ago from Drew for the fishing boat. They are also prismatic cells plus internal BMS and Bluetooth. They are preforming GREAT.
