Say 2x these in parallel, would do it. They will drop .7V approx, so your lithium will be 25.6 less .7 = 24.9V most of the day.

But it loses .6 to .7 of a volt. So we will be using its normal disadvantage to our advantage.

i never understand why they put 70A breakers on chairs with 100A controllers etc, - dosnt make sense to me but still they work fine makes me thing how long or often are we using up 100A or 120A on our chairs -
