I just posted on my website my recent adventure in installing a Lithium LiFePo4 Prismatic cell in my camper. A little different from the recent active post by cdbrow1 as my install involves using solar panels. I kept the IOTA installed for those times I need to recharge if power is available and...

Just thought I would make those techie enough know that Dacien Todea has started a new Kickstarter project on his second version of his Solar BMS. His first version last year did very well and with the prices of Lithium technology becoming more attractive, it is starting to get some attention...
