• What's in the workbook
A worked Battery-Bank Worksheet row pairs the daily Wh from your audit with reserve days, chemistry, and recharge speed so the bank size is a comparison, not a guess.
Bank-size row from the worksheet
The worksheet keeps the math visible. Change one input and the next column updates so trade-offs are honest.
Weekend boondocker, 2 days reserve
Daily use × reserve days ÷ usable depth-of-discharge
Pick after compartment fit
Why it matters: the worksheet keeps the 'why this number' line next to the answer, so the next quote you read or upgrade you make is a comparison, not a restart.
The full worksheet adds chemistry-vs-chemistry comparisons, recharge-speed checks, placement constraints, and staged-upgrade ladders.
Use-case proof
This worksheet is for battery decisions where rated Ah, usable Ah, recharge speed, weight, placement, and upgrade timing all matter at once.
Usable reserve
Chemistry assumptions, reserve targets, and scenario loads keep lithium, AGM, and staged upgrades from looking falsely equivalent.
Recharge balance
Solar, DC-to-DC, shore, generator, portable solar, derates, and time-to-recharge outputs expose slow recovery before another battery gets added.
Placement
Battery bay, pass-through, interior, and enclosure options are compared against weight, cable distance, low-temp risk, ventilation, and access.
Bundle option
Buying the six Planning Files separately totals $180. The bundle is $119, so it makes sense when this file is part of a larger solar, battery, roof, readiness, wiring, or connectivity plan.
The problem this solves
Use the free companion for a one-time answer. Buy the reusable file when the plan needs to survive a trip, quote review, install day, or future upgrade.
What gets messy
Battery decisions blur rated amp-hours, usable capacity, reserve days, recharge windows, placement limits, and staged upgrade plans.
When to use it
Use it while comparing battery counts, chemistries, system voltage, locations, recharge paths, and phased upgrades before buying or expanding the bank.
Good fit
This should feel obviously useful before you buy.
RVers comparing 12V vs 24V banks
RVers comparing lithium vs AGM
Remote workers who need battery reserve for workdays
People checking whether recharge capacity matches battery capacity
People weighing weight, cost, placement, and cold-weather charging issues
Skip it if
A useful product page should also save the wrong buyer from paying.
You only need a quick battery estimate and will not compare scenarios.
You are not ready to list daily loads, recharge windows, or reserve targets.
You want brand-specific battery recommendations instead of planning math.
You expect a custom battery installation design.
What you get
These are the concrete pieces included in the customer download so the product feels usable before a trip, quote review, garage session, or install day.
Manual and charger compatibility check before treating a battery option as buy-ready
Purchase-readiness gates for BMS limits, charger profiles, warranty, low-temp charging, payload, and placement

Sample first
The sample shows the planning shape before money changes hands. Buy only if the full ZIP will be saved, printed, shared, or reused.
What the sample shows
See the shape before you buy. The sample exposes the structure, section types, example rows, and planning flow so you can judge fit before buying.
What the sample does not include
It does not publish the full reusable workbook, binder, reference, completed example, or every printable worksheet from the paid file.
How to use the sample
Download it first, check whether the prompts match your real planning job, then buy only if the full file will be reused.
Preview before buying
These mockups use real tabs, file names, and sample rows from the paid package. They do not expose every worksheet, but they show the value before money changes hands.
What to look for
One editable worksheet or tab, one printable page, and one completed example so the purchase does not feel abstract.

Compare the days you actually live, not one average day.
Weekend, full-time, remote-work, cold, hot, cloudy, travel, emergency
Usable Wh and Ah needed by scenario
Biggest load, next measurement, and recharge assumption
Scenario loads
This is where a weekend rig and a full-time work rig stop looking the same.
Shop by usable capacity instead of headline amp-hours.
Chemistry, system voltage, bank rated Ah
Usable Wh, total cost, total weight, footprint
Low-temp protection, BMS features, warranty, keep/reject
Battery matrix
Keeps chemistry, reserve, weight, and budget in the same decision.
Make the first likely bottleneck obvious before shopping.
Largest scenario usable Wh
200Ah AGM vs 200Ah LiFePO4 usable example
Best recovery vs comfortable reserve target
Decision dashboard
This is the page that keeps rated capacity, usable capacity, and recharge reality from getting blurred.
Make slow recovery visible before adding more battery.
Solar, DC-to-DC, converter/shore, generator, portable solar
Daily recovery Wh, time to replace bank Wh
Bank balanced, partial recovery, or charging too slow
Recharge limit
More battery will not fix a system that cannot recharge in the time you actually have.
Check the exact battery and charger manuals before buying.

Download the ZIP and keep a clean copy
Store the original file somewhere safe, then duplicate the workbook, PDF, or planner before each trip, install, quote review, or route.
Start with the included README
Each package has a README-FIRST file plus product-specific start-here notes so you do not have to guess which tab or page comes first.
Use the success/support link if delivery breaks
If the receipt or file does not arrive, use the checkout success/support page and include the checkout email plus receipt or order number.
ZIP contents
Open this when you want the exact file manifest. It stays collapsed by default so the purchase path does not become a warehouse inventory.

The short version: this is a reusable planning file, not custom installation labor.
Instant Lemon Squeezy checkout. Delivered as an editable XLSX workbook, Google Sheets copy instructions, source CSV tabs, a printable PDF packet, and a battery snapshot sheet.
The listed formats are Excel workbook, Google Sheets copy path, Printable PDF packet. The planning file is meant to be reusable, so keep a clean copy and duplicate it for each trip, install, or upgrade round.
Not always. Use check battery runtime first if you only need the first answer. This planning file makes more sense when you need a reusable planning file you can mark up, revisit, or hand to someone else.
The file is built as a planning template, not a custom design service. You can adapt it to your rig, but measurements, component specs, and final install decisions still need to be verified against your exact equipment.
If a delivered file is broken, inaccessible, or materially not as described, contact us within 14 days so we can replace it or make it right. The license covers one household or rig team and does not allow resale, public posting, or redistribution.
The files use clear headings, plain labels, printable layouts, and spreadsheet tabs where applicable. If a format does not work with your assistive setup, contact us and we will work on a reasonable alternate format.
