Teaney Hull 292

WOW. My thoughts on your Options. 1. No way do I have enough coins in the couch to pay $10,000 for the Mothership to do this. Option 2. At 73 I would not be where I am today, if not for “A Little Help From My Friends.” $2 to $3,000 is worth it to have upgrade to have possibility to Boondocks for a few days. Option 3. I am willing to buy the Victron 3KVA. I see there 3 different ones on Amazon; 1. Victron Energy MultiPlus-II Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger, UL-Certified, 48/3000/35-50 120V For $1168.75. 2. Victron Energy MultiPlus-II 2X Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger for 120 amp Battery, 120V, 3000VA 12-Volt For $1,088.00 3. Victron Energy MultiPlus-II Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger for 120 amp Battery, 120V, 3000VA 12-Volt For $997.05. For the small difference happy to spend on #1 if it makes a difference. JD says based on what I have now, I should be able to add the Lithium batteries and install the rest when I get to the April Rally, with the help from my Ollie Friends. What else will I need to add before I head up to the Ollie. Thanks for taking the time to read what I hope makes sense and taking the time to respond.

Mike, great info Thanks

That is good to know. I’ve got the Old 2017 Xantrex ProWatt SW 2000 watt power Inverter. So if I drop the new Lithium batteries in, I’m good to go till I add the new 3000 Xantrex? As always I follow all your comments on the forum, even if I don’t understand what it all means.

Good to know Mike. I’m looking at 300 to 420ah. Is aH amps?

Wow. This is over my Pay grade… any idea what the mother ship would charge to upgrade to 3000 Xantrex and 3 140amp Lithium batteries?

So glad you posted this. Will check it out and be careful what I buy to replace my AGMs in Hull 292

I too want to do the same thing. Hull 292 and 4 AGMs are going bad. I’m thinking more along the lines of 400 to 600 lithium amps. Will follow this for more input

Wow, what’s a great job laying all the info out. I’m starting to realize doing this myself is way over my pay grade. Do you know if there any Oliver Owners who may be attending the rally that I could pay to do this, if I bought all the parts? I am a GREAT helper in times like this. Or, will the Mothership do this, or do I have to use all their parts. If so, do you know what they have charged in the past?

Thanks JD

Great info Ron. Thanks

Thanks for the update. Will look for the sale.

Good point. Thanks

thanks JD. I follow a LOT of your posts and know you have been there and done that.

Hull 292 2017 Trailer was bought new in 2018. AGMs are not holding a charge. Amazon has a 4 pack of 140amp Redodo Bluetooth batteries for $999. They have 150amp BMS, Low and High Temp cut off. Have any of you gotten Redodo Batteries? Is there another similar priced Battery that is better? What else would I need to get/change/? If I get these. I’ve read a lot of great info on what other owners have done and Much of it is way over my head. Would like to get this done before I head to the April Ollie Rally. Or should I wait and have it done by someone smarter than me? I have the 2000 watt Xantrex Power Inverter and a 180 watt Zamp Portable Solar Panels & External Solar Port. Thanks for your suggestions. Gary

Another reason I love this Forum. My Fridge would not light up. Tried pushing all the buttons. Saw someone used a butter knife and I got a Phillips and pushed all the buttons, many times. No luck. Looked at the fuses. (Why in the world does the door open the wrong way?) Then tried pushing the buttons again with the screw driver. No Luck. Then tried your “Smacked it” approach. All the lights came on and it started working. Will not tell my wife this, she might try it on me… Thanks

Scott I’ll bring cash to share the cost if Venmo or Zelle, or what ever way people send money does not work for you.

Scott, happy to chip in for the hall. How is the best way to do that? Gary, Anita, and Ranger in the Range Rover, Hull 292

Thanks SeaDawg. Great article and full of good info on tools.

Wow Hull 14. Hope to see you at the 2025 Rally in Guntersville state park. I’m site F27

Will do. Thanks

Thanks. Have ordered and will update results.

Ordered and will let you know how it works. Thanks

That settles it. I’m getting those Alka leaf springs and taking my Armada and my Oliver on this course lol

We have Hull 292 and decals are starting to come off in places. What is the best way to remove them? Plan to add my new “The Range Rover” to the front and rear. Our Standard Poodle is Ranger. Should I strip and ceramic coat first Any advice, much appreciated. thanks

Mike, nice set up. Anita and I will be at the Ollie Rally in April. Are you going? At some point will go from AGM to Lithium. Would like to see your set up. Hull 292 here.
