Windraker Sailing

Format 400 Catamaran

Blackout

After I raved about the battery system yesterday we were without power when waking up. The LifePo4 switched itself off due to low voltage to protect itself. The old AGM’s were still in paralel so not complete without power.
The system tricked me that we had 100% on the Victron amp hout meter and the AGM PCB meter that also I dictates energy left that is wildly out.
So we had less then we thought after a day of water making and the previous days usage.
After the sun came up then battery was recharged so could switch the LifePo4 on again. Solo this time. The AGM need some more testing I thin one is to be ditched.
I recent the victron reset to 100 procent recent to 15 volt, it was set to 13.5. Now we should have accurate indication of Ah left in the LiFePo4.

We sailed down wind to telesika national park Kirsty’s favourite. It is still very quite here which we don’t mind.
Tomorrow direction Murter island after some exploring here in the park
