One thing just occurred to me, can Lithiums provide enough amps to start an Onan 12500? Can't find any specs on what it requires.

What do Anthem owners typically do for auto start if that does not work?

After the switch to lithium I have not missed gen auto start. Then again I seldom used it with the AGM batteries. Not much can be done with the system as is. Perhaps wiring in a different brand of AGS that will start at the higher lithium voltages, or seeing if the Magnum AGS module can be added in and controlled by the Magnum remote panel.

I can imagine with that much reserve power you'll rarely need to start it! Obviously the reason we're doing this

Actually with our 1300W of solar and a sunny day we don’t need the generator at all. The extra reserve comes in handy to get us through a cloudy day or two.
