This connected Lithium Fer LiFePO4 battery can be used for various applications, including motorhomes, boats, remote sites, and industrial or agricultural machines, serving as an auxiliary battery or service battery.
The Lithium Fer (LiFePo4) technology currently offers the longest lifespan. By following the usage guidelines, you can use this battery for over ten years, with up to 4000 life cycles.
While a Lithium Fer LiFePO4 battery is more expensive than a Lead battery, the advantages of replacing your original Lead battery with a Lithium Fer battery are manifold:
-
The Lithium Fer LiFePO4 battery has a lifespan three times longer while being half the weight.
-
The Lithium battery provides maximum power throughout the discharge range, whereas the performance of a Lead battery decreases as it discharges.
-
At equivalent capacity (e.g., 100Ah), a Lithium Fer battery will offer almost twice the autonomy of a Lead battery. This is due to the energy efficiency of Lithium batteries, which is almost twice as high: 98% usable capacity for Lithium compared to 50% for Lead. Lead batteries are significantly impacted by the Peukert effect.
For the 100Ah battery, it's recommended not to exceed a continuous discharge current of 50A to achieve a lifespan of around 3000 cycles. However, if you don't exceed 30A of continuous discharge, the lifespan can exceed 4000 cycles. This battery can accept a maximum of 150A continuous and 450A peak for short-term needs.
Similarly, for the 200Ah battery, the maximum lifespan of around 4000 cycles will be achieved if you do not exceed a continuous discharge current of 100A, but you can go up to 150A for short-term needs. This battery can also accept a maximum of 150A continuous and 450A peak for short-term needs.
Whether it's the 100Ah or the 200Ah battery, it is recommended not to exceed a charging current of 50A.
