Steph and Dud B Posted July 4, 2023 Posted July 4, 2023 I think we're one of the few with the factory-installed Lithium Platinum Package, and that's actually by accident. When OTT was doing our build they had trouble sourcing the batteries for the Lithium Pro Package so they offered us a deal on the Platinum Package instead. Gotta say, really impressed with this system. We just got back from a week long trip in full shade with rain every day and we didn't even put a dent in it. 63% SOC at the end of the trip with virtually no solar charging and no use of the genny. That's with using the microwave, coffee maker, and TV, too. If you frequently dry-camp or boondock in shady/cloudy environments, the Platinum Package might be worth the investment for you. We could have easily gone 2 weeks without a charge. I put a full trip report (and a one-year ownership wrap-up) on our blog if anyone wants more info. Happy Fourth of July! 3 Stephanie and Dudley from CT. 2022 LE2, Hull #1150: Eggcelsior. Tow vehicle: 2016 GMC Sierra 6.0 gas dually 4x4.

Ralph Mawyer Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 Craig, sidebar question. I just noticed you stayed with the Xantrex 2000 vs the 3000 the factory installs. Just didn’t want to mess with it? Im not sure of the functional impact other than limitation on number of items being run at once? 2020 Legacy Elite II : Hull 625 - 2013 Lexus LX 570 San Antonio/Boerne - Texas Hill Country
