Frequently Asked Questions


  • Will my 12v lithium battery work with a Black Elecrical system?

All of our systems work together with LiFePO4 Lithium batteries and AGM/lead acid batteries.

Victron 100/30 mppt can handle up to 440w solar with a 12v battery and 880w with a 24v battery.

With the difficult work professionally done, all that is required is a few steps and you’re up and running.
With 12v output cables, solar cable and battery ready install times could take as little as 1 hour. Please see instructions in menu.

  • How long does it take to install?

  • Which tools do i need?

Drill / Electric screwdriver for mounting unit to wall.
Jigsaw for cutting rear cable access hole.
Crimper for fuse box outlets.
& Tools to ground DC negative to vehicle ground point.

  • What should I do before my system arrives?

There are a few things that should be done beforehand, please see instructions and find “Pre-installation measures”.

Typically it is more cost-effective to connect an inverter directly to a leisure battery, however the main cable max amp is 25mm (170a) and to be fused at a minimum of 25% lower than the cable rating (125a mega-fuse).
