LITHIONICS BATTERIES AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM UPGRADE INSTALLATIONS PAGE:

2020 WINNEBAGO VIEW 24D 315 AMP HOUR GTX BATTERY AND STERLING CHARGER UPGRADE MARCH 2021

battery site spacer

The Mercedes Benz 3500 Sprinter van chassis is both popular as a base chassis for RV manufacturers as well as "Do-it-Yourselfers". The Lithionics Battery lithium-ion house battery upgrade is relatively simple in that we do not need to cut into/ tap into any of the OEM Mercedes wiring and by adding/ connecting a Sterling Power BB1230 12 Volt DC to 12 Volt DC battery to battery charger with 30 Amps output, we do not void the Mercedes OEM alternator warranty. On the 3500, it is often equipped with a 220 Amp alternator but Mercedes only wants secondary battery systems to use up to 40 of those Amps or else you run the risk of burning out the alternator. The Sterling Charger needs two 8 or 10 AWG tinned copper marine power wires (check cable charts for length of your cables and the required cable size) run from the engine start battery (with a 50 Amp inline fuse) to wherever the charger is located.

2020 Winnebago View 24D RV Lithionics lithium-ion battery installation and upgrade

Lithionics has become an OEM lithium-ion battery supplier to Winnebago and other major RV manufacturers - where they sometimes offer the same GTX Series 12 Volt 315 Amp hour high performance lithium-ion battery or a similar variant. On this upgrade project, the RV came with two very low power and ineffective 12 Volt AGM batteries wired in parallel that gave about 110 usable Amp hours capacity. The Lithionics battery offers 284 usable Amp hours capacity - a whopping increase that uses the same battery compartment as the OEM AGM batteries under the side door steps.

2020 Winnebago View 24D RV Lithionics lithium-ion battery installation and upgrade

The above photo is a top view looking down. You can see the white box in the lower right labelled Sterling BB1230. This is the 30 Amp Sterling Smart Charger which has been custom programmed using the "Custom" setting on the charger. In very hot/ southern areas we may choose to mount this charger under the RV in a waterproof enclosure to prevent excess heat buildup in the now sealed and inulated battery compartment. Otherwise we can use two black plastic round louvered duct air vents on the vertical part of the step.

As the original battery compartment is open at the bottom/ sides water, mud and cold temperatures easily affect whatever battery type is in there. Since the Lithionics GTX 12V-315A-E2107-CS200 lithium-ion battery needs to be above 0 Celsius for charging, we needed to close in and insulate the battery area. This permits much lower power use of the internal automated battery heater.

Notes:
1. The Lithionics battery takes up less space and weighs about 1/2 the original 2 battery weight.
2. Like with many refits, the space becomes tight with the addition of the sheet metal, insulation and Sterling Charger. The OEM inverter cables are not long enough as is the DC power cable. As such we don't really have the luxury of laying cables out nicely as we'd like - its more a case of you have to work with what you can fit.



The image above shows the originally installed AGM batteries - as well as the signs of water/ mud getting in the compartment.

IMPORTANT NOTES
:

TEMPERATURE EXTREMES FOR LITHIONICS LITHIUM-ION BATTERY SYSTEMS:

With the release of the Lithionics Advanced NeverDie Battery Management System (BMS) equipped with Version 8.0 software that is UL approved (as of May, 2018), there are new temperature parameters that we want the lithium-ion batteries to fall within - particularly when charging. This is important especially in vehicles and some marine applications. If the battery temperature is below 32 Fahrenheit or above 113 Fahrenheit the single channel BMS will turn off. As such, we have several ways that we can control the battery temperature in hot and cold conditions - such as a special battery enclosure with heating and/ or cooling features built-in. Also, if we deploy the Dual Channel BMS that separates the "Charging" and "Discharging" functions of the system we can allow the BMS to switch off charging when the temperature parameters are exceeded but you can still discharge or use power from the lithium-ion battery system safely from -4 Fahrenheit to 140 Fahrenheit. Please consult with getlithium.com/ Pinnacle Innovations to ensure that we specify the correct system for you that will perform in the conditions that you need. All battery types including lead-acid and AGM batteries have similar optimal operating temperatures but it is not well publicized - likely due to the relatively lower cost of such battery technologies with limited performance and life-span.
