I wouldn’t be adding any new equipment, so beer money is safe.

I do have 210w of solar to my Victron MPPT. It gets a decent amount of sun. I should unplug from shore power and see how many Watt Hours it is pulling in during the day. I am still running the stock 90ah AGM, but going with LifePo4 soon(ish). I think I need to move the DC2DC closer to the...

My Hawk is only mounted to the truck part time. It is plugged into shore power for 3-5 weeks at a time. I am thinking of moving the DC2DC in between the IOTA and the battery. I think that would properly charge from both truck connection and shore power that way?

Which model did you buy? How was the fitment in place of the Iota ?

Gumbus, I would be better off with the 100ah SOK since I am still running the stock 92ah boat anchor of an AGM. But….the 206ah is calling my name. I am 99% sure it will fit.

@gumbus the Iota is not ideal for these planned upgrades. I wonder what 4WheelCampers does when they sell the upgraded LifePO4 package? Funny thing the older Iotas needed a different module for charging AGM,LifePo4 and FLA. I think if you had the older one, with the right add on it would work...

I’ve wondered about the same thing re my Iota. I emailed back and forth with their support folks and they could not answer with any confidence that the charger would take care of LifePo4. I just replaced the stock ACR with a Victron 30A DC2DC. I have one 210w roof panel feeding a Victron MPPT...
