[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 600768, member: 3775"] If it works why change it, Straight out Lithium Car Type batteries need to come down by about 30%+ before I will ever buy one, In the mean time I will keep running these PLB's, There's not brain ache involved as they have a built in MPPT and although they are only 40Ah they have more than enough power to run the fridge when the sun goes down when the fridge is set to -14*c and still manage to charge within a couple of hours and in fridge mode it would take less than an hour to charge it, Some of these So called Solar Chargers have up to 1500Wh to 2400 and 3000Wh the trouble with ones that size you need 7 to 800w of Solar to Charge them in 3 or 4 hours. So the 500+Wh models are better for everyday use. [/QUOTE]
