Bigger batteries: More Ah needed?

It's a complaint often heard - 'My leisure batteries aren't big enough and they keep going flat quickly.'
This blogpost is primarily aimed at motorhome, RV, campervan, caravan, commercial vans, boat and yacht owners – concerning the issue of more battery capacity needed, with different ways to achieve that.

 

Sunny days ahead for the TU Delft Solar Boat team

We at Victron have recently extended our sponsorship to include a hard-working team of young scientists who are building a solar-powered hydrofoil. In addition to the annual Dutch solar boat race at Akkrum, they’ve set themselves some exciting goals for 2019 – let’s meet the team.
