Leisure Battery

Well am still waiting for them
To be available :) Sounds really appealing. My thoughts where to put the dc to dc there to avoid pulling to much current from the generator.

Yeah looked at them as well. They have a lot of interesting stuff. And not far from me (6 hours) But i dont think ill need solar, and also the land charger will charge the Titan if it supports the AGM profile as you found it did.
 
top dollar lol. D just remember the land current charger is under the fridge...and without a dc-dc... you will lack power since mercedes charge algorithm is wierd.. D u can watch the charge in the menu mbux. D it will 80-100 when low....which is out of recommended charge spec.... maybe thats not to bad, but worse is that it will charge almost nothing when above 80%. making a 260ah really need better controlling i think. D im not exactly sure about the capabillities of the ground current charger.... but you can find it and see for your self easy under the fridge.. just remove the panel... and the wire to seat. D

again a tech dude is needed since this ground charger also charges the main starter battery. which you cant replace with these ones ..


you realizing a project i had for some time.... let me know how it goes D GL
 
Hello all. I'm in the process of installing a Victron Orion XS 12/12-50 in my 2021 MP. I plan to keep the 2023 AGM until it wears out. I'll then replace it with a LiPo. The Orion XS will have no problem with the new chemistry but the shore power charger is rather primitive. Has anyone found a good replacement for the Dometic ? It looks like Victron IP22 might work. Anyone try it? Best, KJ

Nope. But Reading up on it. Looks to do the job. How Would it fit, any idea?

I'll have to get back on board and measure. It looks like a very tight fit for where the existing Dometic is but there might be just enough room for the Victron IP22. At any rate, as I'm keeping the existing AGM, I'm not in a big hurry to change out chargers.

I'll try to post some photos of my Orion XS install. My idea is to replace the K120 relay with it and add a Smartshunt 500A for monitoring. It's VERY tight but I think I'll be able to shoehorn it in once I get the right cable and crimp ends.
