Twin underbonnet Lithiums.

Cranks the engine, Runs the winch, powers all the accessories, runs 3000w invertors, coffee machines, Induction cooktops, Toaster. Nothing i cant do.

Do you have more info on this install? Specs on battery? What are you using to charge? I assume these are in series (24V)? How do you control temperature?

Lithium batteries are generally not a good fit for under bonnet starting usage due to mismatch in charge profiles and temperate sensitivity.

EDIT: I found the battery here. Specs look good assuming quality components and construction. Must be 12V as that battery can't be series connected.

I would like to see more detail on the install if you have it. Looks clean.

An interesting concept is using one lead acid and one LiFePO4 battery in a dual battery application. This is for house battery applications, not sure how it would work for SLI applications.

 
I was wondering about temp compatibility too with underhood temps. I couldn't find much info on the website.

My lithiums are designed for underbonnet use. They are installed in parallel but you CAN have them in series if needed. I have supploed 1000's of them all over the country.
