FAQ

• Q

  What is the cycle life of your LiFePO4 batteries?​​​

  A

  Our batteries can achieve 2000+ cycles at 100% depth of discharge (DOD) and 6000+ cycles at 80% DOD.
• Q

  What does "DOD" mean? How does it affect the battery?​

  A

  DOD = Depth of Discharge
  Simply put, it's how much of the battery's power you've used.

  DOD 80% = 80% of the battery's power used (20% remaining).

  DOD 100% = Fully discharged - requires a dedicated LiFePO4 charger to reactivate.

• Q

  Will it stop working in winter?​

  A

  Our batteries operate normally at -20°C, but cannot charge below 0°C. For cold regions, we recommend installing an intelligent heating pad that automatically warms the battery to 15℃ when powered,so that batteries can be charged. worry-free!
• Q

  Do lithium batteries require a special charger.Can I charge lithium with a AGM/lead-acid charger?​

  A

  They are generally compatible. A 12V LiFePO4 battery requires a charging voltage of 14V-14.6V, which most AGM/lead-acid  chargers can provide for normal charging. However, if the charger voltage is too low, it may charge the battery but fail to reach a full 100% charge.

  Note:If the lithium battery is completely drained, an AGM/lead-acid charger may not be able to reactivate it.

  Recommendation: For optimal performance, we recommend using a dedicated lithium battery charger.

• Q

  Do you support OEM/ODM?​

  A

  Yes,we supply OEM/ODM batteries. We have a strong R&D team and component supply chain. We can customize everything from battery structure to BMS design, making the battery your competitive advantage, not just a purchased component.

• Q

  Do the batteries require regular maintenance?​

  A

  No maintenance required at usual cases, avoid steps of adding water or checking acid in traditional lead-acid batteries. Suggest storing batteries at 30%-70%. If the batteries are stored for long periods of time, charge and discharge the batteries at least every 3 months.
• Q

  Why are they more cost-effective despite being more expensive than lead-acid?​

  A

  Lilead deep cycle batteries last over 10 times longer than lead-acid batteries.

  Lilead cranking batteries, one replaces two lead-acid batteries. For example, the S24110 battery can replace two 12V 200Ah lead-acid batteries, reducing 100kg weight for the vessel.

• Q

  Can batteries be connected in parallel?​

  A

  Yes, most of our batteries support parallel connections (please refer to the product specifications for details). Please note that batteries must be of the same model and batteries must be fully charged before connecting in parallel.
• Q

  How to monitor battery status?​

  A

  The battery is equipped with Bluetooth/communication ports for monitoring. You can check real-time status via mobile app or connect to MFD or Victron devices. Refer to the specifications for details.
• Q

  Can lithium batteries be fully discharged?​

  A

  Lithium batteries can be fully discharged to 100% capacity. However, to optimize performance, extend cycle life, and prevent the BMS from disconnecting the battery due to low voltage, we recommend avoiding full discharge.

  If the BMS cuts off the battery due to 100% depth of discharge (DOD), remove the load and recharge the battery to reactivate it.
