I call bs, use my to run my ac regularly. zero issues. ac would kill it faster than jack or slide motors
OK. It is good to hear about your broad range of success and is what I am hoping to be the case by many users. I would very much like to be wrong on all of this!
Are you also including in your BS comment that LiTime's is not saying their batteries are not to be used with: jacks, Lippert Ground Control 3.0, and not being OK for starting motors and that they rejected warranty that I brought up? It is good to question/doubt what others post, including me.
I know this stuff sounds pretty off the wall and why I have spent so much time trying to get to the bottom of it. I considered trying to get Will Prowse to contact LiTime to get a straight answer. It is one thing for a manufacture to say they do not have a problem, when they do and this situation, that LiTime saying that there are multiple problems using their batteries under these conditions!
This is why I very much encouraged users to
contact LiTime directly and hear it from the horse's mouth. They have no phone support. Weekends you get a canned out of office response and will get back to you. During the week responses are overnight and with more challenging questions about 4 days, when they choose to respond.

Will Prowse wrote in #2 about a new LiTime BMS: "They used to run a third party BMS and I can't remember the name. It's in a past video. But now they make all of their BMS in-house. They actually have a really good BMS...."
Added 1/11/2025 4:33 MST: As far as just one starting comment from
LiTime site, look at last item in bullet list:
My approximate calculations for in-rush current for Lippert Ground Control based on 50A circuit breaker and even 5x in-rush (referenced article in previous post) 50 x 5=250A. This likely is for much much less than a second, should indicate the
100Ah w 280Ah for full 5s battery rating could easily take this high estimate. But LiTime says NO.
As Hoppy Frood correctly stated in post #20 and after my initial post:
From what I've been reading, it isn't that the LiTime lithium batteries CAN'T do it, but LiTime says they SHOULDN'T be used that way, and could void the warranty.
