What is the design software you are using and is it easy to learn to use? Looks like you won't have a lot of floor space to move around in. Wouldn't it be better to have 2 bench seats/ beds at the rear, to give through access and a more airy feel to the space. Not a criticism , just a thought?
Hey Gary, sadly the CTEK units I have aren't compatible with LifePo4 batteries. The charging voltages are different with lithium, and at present, CTEK don't produce a suitable charger for my needs (which is a shame as would love to stick with them).
I'll be interested in seeing what you go with for charging. I'm looking at getting some lithium batteries next year, from ev-power.eu, 270Ah for around £1,100 (3x 90Ah).
Funnily enough I'm leaning towards buying from the same company :) Currently thinking 4 x 300Ah Winston cells, with their Bluetooth BMS - but this could change. Not sure is you are aware, but the prices they quote have VAT added at checkout. On the plus side, they are very responsive to emails. Really not sure on chargers yet - need to do a lot more research as I want the bank to charge as fast as possible whilst driving (I know it's possible to charge LifePo4 up to 10x faster than Lead Acid).

Is the CTEK charging gear compatible with Lithium batteries? I don't see why it wouldn't be, but it doesn't state that it is.
