How Do You Safely Store a Defective (Bulging) Lithium-Ion Battery?
So, short of baking (inadvertently or otherwise), burning or stabbing your battery, or taking a few months to dispose of it, you probably do not need to massively baby the battery. Just do not charge it (and for once self-discharge is fine). A battery not in use is slightly less likely to spontaneously catch fire.
What Is a Battery Isolator?
When the engine is off, the isolator quite literally isolates the second battery, allowing it to keep its charge. Here is an example of a Li-BIM isolator designed to work with our batteries. This unit will only …
How to Sense Current in a Battery Management System
A resistive shunt sensor is a low-value (0.1 mΩ) high-precision resistor in series with a battery pack. This can be seen in the circuit diagram below. We want the resistor outside the battery pack to be of a precise low value, or else it …

How to Hook Up a Battery Isolator
Diode-based isolator: This is the simplest type of battery isolator. It uses diodes to allow current to flow from the alternator to the batteries, but prevents current from flowing between the batteries.Diode-based isolators are inexpensive and easy to install, but they can cause a voltage drop and may not be suitable for high-amperage applications.
Tech Tips
Battery isolators do just what it sounds like: They isolate your RV "house" batteries from your vehicle''s SLI (starting-lighting-ignition) battery. Without such isolation, your house battery and SLI battery will seek to maintain the same charge level—and if that''s too low to start your rig, you''re left in the lurch.
