    Really great demo, thanks so much! Very nice to see it operating in real life - you’re absolutely right, some of us learn much more quickly by seeing it live. I now feel like I have an excellent grasp on your product.

    Thank you Clark, it’s people like you that bring quality to others lives. I’m looking forward to getting the BankManager into my system!

    Another great video Clark. Love the real life demo. I think you have sold me on buying one of your systems early next spring.

    A great piece of equipment,  it just works. I have had my first generation BankManager for three years now, no issues at all. An elegant solution to mixing battery chemistries.

    I love my bank manager. Has been running on my boat for close to 2 years now. It is the best device I have found to add lithium to your boat, simple to install, works without issue, and so many more benefits over other methods to add lithium.

    EXCELLENT Clark!  That was a really good video of how the manager manages and certainly answered all the questions I'm smart enough about it to ask at the moment. I have  Dryfit Prevailer 8d batteries (3 8D's) at present and want to add Lithium via the Bank Manager. I was muddy on how it all worked together, but you simplified it for me when you explained that the boat will run as always off the lead and the Lithium will step in and supply the juice till they get low and pass it back to the lead. So all my wiring and breaker panels of all the 12v on my systems don't need anything altered. See why this helps total newbies to the idea, that don't get it till we get it.  BTW the Lithium seems pretty much in line with the Gels in that my battery guy told me way back decades ago to voltage the Gels at 13.8 (not 14.1 or 14.4 I think they now say for Gel)  My current Gels have been in for about 3.5 years. The set before that carried me 13 years (getting iffy at around 12 years. So thanks again Clark for doing this video.   .... BP

    Good video. Very helpful.<br><br>I now have two different Bank Manager systems. A 12v system (boat) and a now 48v system (house). &nbsp;I &nbsp;found the review of the hookup and of the settings very helpful. &nbsp;For example the ability to adjust the lifepo4 and pb voltages on the v3 unit, the cause for it and why you would do it very interesting<br><br>The units have given me the best of the lead systems i have and the benifits of the added llifepo4.<br><br>Big fan.

    awesome video. I was going to install this on my family boat, but went with Victron, it cost a lot more and does not have the same features. I will definitely have it on my next build.

  • @benkanobe7500 · 1 year ago

    Outstanding!

  • @brownnoise357 · 1 year ago

    Hi Clark. I have decided to stick with AGM and avoid everything Lithium, in favour of Aluminium ion batteries which are a huge improvement- coming initially from Tesla and Toyota, though lithium pricing collapsing dramatically may change that for the short term ? Best wishes. Bob. 🤔🌟🌟🌟👍

    Screen needs to be Larger for us reading glass challenge people of the 65 years and older. &nbsp;However looks like a fantastic product, Victron should buy you out for 100 million, but your whole concept of getting the advantage of lithium and the best of lead. &nbsp;Only thing I am Worried about is an EMP strike from a Lightning strike, my Beneteau OC350 1989, got hit wiped out all of my electronics but my Engine alternator and Two AGMs 8d and 4D were ok. &nbsp;Why I love my Volvo Penta no electronics, in 30 years of summer cruising Starlight is like our summer home up here On Long Island, doing a refit on her this year figured getting tied of the 8d AGM going for the Lithium, still having the 4d AGM lead, your product would make that Possible. &nbsp;Bravo Zulu!
