Easier to read, if data groups were in seperate pages.

i agree 100%. Im unable to read the graph in this form. I have to uncheck all box's and then check each one individualy to be able to tell what each is. Its nearly impossible to see everything clearly all on one screen

Thank you for this build thread. I'm starting a build similar to yours, using the iCharger 4010 duo. Are you using both of the iCharger balance ports, or only one?

Awesome it's definitely worth it I could never go back to lead batteries.

I charge in synchronous mode combining both channels and balance ports. I charge at 40amps an 2.4amps balance. Drawing 20amps from each channel instead of always 40amps from a single channel maxing it out. But you also don't have a extra channel then. The iCharger 4010duo is easy to figure out .

To charge in synchronous mode you will need to make a synchronous charging lead and synchronous balance lead Most here use a Sub-D connector to connect to battery. I use a sb50 an 3 mt30 connectors but there's many ways to do it.

Example of synchronous balance lead

Thanks!
In one of your photos, it looks like you are using the balance board that came with the iCharger. Is there any reason I can't eliminate the board and go to the battery directly with the balance leads?

Don't use balance boards. I did only that one time. It just adds more line resistance
