Hey everyone...
I have a lithium battery connected to solar panels powering my RV cabin, and it ran completely out of power when the RV was in the shop (it was indoors for weeks, and the overhead fan probably drained the battery all the way).
I called tech support for the panels and charge controller, Renogy, who said the battery needs a jump before anything will work again. Until the battery is over a minimum charge, the charge controller will not engage and recharge it off the solar panels.
I have a black and decker jumper box, model J312B - could there be any issue using it to jump a lithium battery?

I'm happy to provide further detail if necessary.
Thanks for helping me get my system back online... When it does work, it works great.
