It seems the time has come to replace my Scamp Battery. It's been a little low lately and just now, mid-trip, it started beeping at me and dropping consistently. I was wondering about an upgrade to a Lithium battery.
was wondering what you'd recommend and if it would be plug&play?
Until, I'm going to hook up a generator and try to get some charge on it to get me through the next couple of days. If I do this, does the DC switch need to be on to get the charge or will it charge it either way?
Thanks!
If your Scamp is more than 10 years old, the converter/charger is not designed to handle lithium batteries. A new converter/charger for lithium, AGM, and lead acid batteries is $200 from Scamp. Otherwise, a quick fix is a new deep cycle marine battery.
