Advantages of Lithium Batteries

Compact and Lightweight: 12v lithium batteries deliver up to 50% more usable capacity compared to AGM batteries. They are much lighter and more compact compared to their lead-acid counterparts. This makes them perfect for applications where weight and space are critical, such as in 4×4’s, caravans, boats, and solar power setups.

High Energy Storage: With a higher energy density, lithium batteries can store more energy in a smaller, lighter form. This ensures a longer-lasting power source and better use of space, making them highly efficient.

Extended Lifespan: Lithium batteries boast a longer cycle life, enduring more charge and discharge cycles than lead-acid batteries. This durability translates to cost savings over time as they need to be replaced less frequently.

Rapid Charging: Thanks to their superior charge acceptance rate, lithium batteries recharge faster than lead-acid batteries. This is particularly beneficial for electric vehicles and solar power systems where quick recharging is essential.

Consistent Power Output: Lithium batteries deliver a steady power output throughout their discharge cycle. Unlike lead-acid batteries, which can suffer from voltage drops, lithium batteries maintain efficiency and reliability.

Low Maintenance: Lithium batteries are virtually maintenance-free, eliminating the need for regular checks and upkeep required by lead-acid batteries. This convenience makes them a user-friendly choice.

No Memory Effect: Unlike some other battery types, lithium batteries do not suffer from memory effect. This means they can be recharged at any level without losing their maximum energy capacity, ensuring optimal performance.

Broad Temperature Range: Lithium batteries perform well across a wide temperature spectrum, from extremely hot to very cold conditions. This makes them suitable for use in diverse and challenging environments.

Efficient Charging for Maximum Battery Life

To extend the life and performance of your lithium batteries, use chargers specifically designed for LiFePO4 batteries. This includes AC chargers, DC to DC chargers, and solar controllers. Optimal charging voltages range from 14.2 to 14.6 volts, with a float setting between 13.5 to 13.6 volts. Charging at the lower end of this range can help maximize battery lifespan.

For best results, ensure the charging current is approximately 30% of your battery’s capacity. Avoid chargers with “Pulse Stage” or “Equalization Mode” to prevent damage and maintain warranty conditions.

Usage Tips and Best Practices

• Separate Lithium and Starter Batteries: Avoid connecting lithium batteries to starter batteries with a VSR (Voltage Sensitive Relay) to prevent discharge issues and potential damage.
• Respect BMS Load Ratings: Do not exceed the load rating of the Battery Management System (BMS), even with batteries connected in parallel, to avoid overloading.
• Monitor Battery SOC: Regularly check the “State of Charge” (SOC) and avoid discharging below 20% SOC to extend battery life.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

• Keep Batteries Charged: For batteries with a reset button, keeping them charged prevents accidental low voltage disconnects.
• Reset Procedures: Follow proper procedures for resetting batteries without a reset button to ensure they reconnect correctly and avoid damaging electronic equipment.
• Smart Monitoring: Utilize wireless smartphone monitoring systems to track battery parameters and receive alerts on voltage, temperature, current, and overall health.

Installation and Parallel Connections

• Parallel Connections: When connecting B-TEC batteries in parallel, use the appropriate cable size and limit the number to four batteries for system stability.
• Pre-Charge Batteries: Ensure batteries are fully charged before connecting them in parallel to prevent issues.
• Series Connections: Do not connect B-TEC batteries in series; contact us for solutions requiring higher voltage.

FAQs and Installation Guidelines

• Safety: LiFePO4 batteries are designed to be safe and reliable, with no risk of fire, unlike some lithium-ion batteries.
• Inverter Compatibility: These batteries are compatible with inverters but should be kept in dry environments to prevent moisture damage.
• Proper Mounting: Install B-TEC batteries in dry places and avoid mounting them on their side or end.

Refer to our installation guidelines for detailed instructions and contact us for any specific installation questions.
