I'm excited to see how this works out, if you don't get it sorted I suggest reaching out to ChrisFix. It'd make for an entertaining video to add to his YouTube collection.

Nice, any issues? When it gets cold I think the longest I can go without driving my car is about 8 days. However I picked up the Shorai charging unit so if it goes longer I just hook that up.
