They liked our SALVAGE SAILBOAT story, so they sent us 400lbs of LITHIUM 😲 | Expedition Evans 60

LiFePO4 batteries are at the heart of our off grid lithium setup with a huge thank you to Battleborn. We make room for 1350ah of Lithium before shoehorning them into the bilge. Lots of near toe smashing and back breaking hip twisting lifting and they are in. next step, cutting crimping and routing ~80 feet of 4/0 cables 😬 So what did we get: 5x 8d 270ah Battleborn LiFePO4 2x 12/3000 Victron Multiplus 2x Lynx Distributor 2x Solar Charge Controllers Plus a bunch of goodies to connect it all and help it all talk to each other! You can find it all on https://battlebornbatteries.com/ **************************************** *Our Boat* 2008 Beneteau 49 3 cabin 2 head 4JH4-TE Westerbeke generator Mast, sails and rig are in excellent condition and in storage Here's what we *think* we know about her past. Keep in mind we bought her at auction without ever meeting the owner! The owner was sailing along and ran aground - hard. Hard enough that the keel pivoted and pushed the aft end up into the hull. This force cracked the internal grid in several places and broke a portion of the grid free from hull. At some point an inspection was done, insurance was called and decisions were made. See https://youtu.be/JJ3MruoO2q4 for how we came to own her! *Our Gear* Main Camera: https://amzn.to/3csaFjz Main Lens: https://amzn.to/3cwZRkl Microphone: https://amzn.to/3iSDGoV Go Pro: https://amzn.to/4ibLwJV Drone: https://amzn.to/2Yf3X8S Laptop: https://amzn.to/3h9ydcL *Find Us Elsewhere* Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ExpeditionEvans J Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Jadexploring/ B Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_BrettEvans_ EE Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ExpeditionEvans Dingo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DingoEvans Penny Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/PenntelopeEvans TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@Expedition_Evans *Website/blog* https://www.expeditionevans.com *Want to support us?" https://www.patreon.com/expeditionevans https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=FWBYD33TFEBRY *How we've started making subtitles* try.rev.com/3q9Tjr
