Springvis LiFePO4 Pt 2: Fixing My Wiring Mistakes + Full Victron Upgrade! | Ep 092

Welcome to Sailing Springvis! I’m Jan, solo sailor who spent five years on a 36 ft Koopmans before downsizing to my nimble 1980 Hallberg-Rassy 26 Springvis (with the cheeky mermaid logo ). After realising bigger isn’t always better, this channel is now all about honest solo fixes, smart upgrades, and real sailing adventures on a smaller, more manageable boat. New here? Start with Ep 087 (Springvis reveal) or Ep 091 (LiFePO4 Part 1). Subscribe and hit the bell — more fun coming! Ep 092: Springvis LiFePO4 Pt 2 – Fixing Wiring Disasters + Full Victron Electrical Upgrade Part 2 is here and it gets spicy! First I have to undo my own mistakes from the previous episode: BMS wired the wrong way around and terminals that got seriously hot . Lesson learned the hard way! Once that’s sorted, it’s time for the fun part — installing my favourite brand: Victron Energy. In this episode I fit: Multiplus 1600 VA inverter/charger Partial DC rewiring AC wiring upgrade Victron Blue Smart IP65 10A charger for the starter battery Victron Orion-TR 12-12-30 DC-DC charger to feed the house bank when under engine Everything gets properly tested at the end, and it all comes alive! A proper electrical overhaul that turns Springvis into a much more capable little cruiser.
