Title: BIG BOY
Post by: Rocky Healey on September 25, 2025, 06:04:46 AM

I cleaned my BIG BOY and in putting it back together I broke one of the wires the goes to the terminals for the green wires once it is put back together. I am looking for any suggestions to fix this BO BO. or am I looking at buying a new BIG BOY.  Any thoughts greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Hello Rocky Healey,

We also have a 2008 Beaver Patriot Thunder Concord IV. I can give you what we did due to the fact we had a complete solar system installed. We replaced the Big Boy and the MAGUNM inverter/charger system. (and some other solenoid installed by the last owners. No idea what they were trying to do but you will see in the images)

We removed the MAGNUM system and replaced with all Victron. Next we replaced the Big Boy with a GEN2 LiBIM 225 batter isolation manager. It seems to match up great with the victron system.

Try soldering it, or if you have room, a butt connector would work. Good luck!
