Tiger and Julia are installing the motor themselves. Ocean voyaging demands self reliance - so it is essential to understand every aspect of your vessel’s gear. Tiger’s shopping list for Idun’s electrical installation is as follows: The Lynx Smart Battery Management System controls the charging of Victron Energy Lithium Batteries, and protects them from misuse.
