FAQ sur les Energy stations - EcoWatt
What is the capacity of the EcoWatt series 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery?
The EcoWatt Series 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery has a rated capacity of 100 amp-hours (Ah). This means it can provide a continuous discharge of 1 amp for 100 hours before requiring a recharge. It is ideal for applications requiring a reliable and long-lasting power source, such as RVs, solar installations, and home or industrial energy backup systems.
What are the advantages of Lithium LiFePO4 batteries over lead-acid batteries?
Lithium LiFePO4 batteries offer several advantages over lead-acid batteries. They have a longer lifespan, with more than 2000 charge/discharge cycles possible compared to several hundred for lead-acid batteries. They are also lighter and have a higher energy density, which allows more energy to be stored in a smaller space. In addition, LiFePO4 batteries are safer due to their chemical stability and do not require regular maintenance such as electrolyte refilling.
How to charge EcoWatt series 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery?
To charge the EcoWatt Series 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium Battery, it is recommended to use a compatible charger specifically designed for lithium batteries. Set the charger to the appropriate voltage (14.6V for a full charge) and be sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the charge current, typically around 0.2C to 0.5C of the battery capacity, or between 20A and 50A. Avoid overcharging or deep discharging the battery to maximize its life.
What safety features are built into EcoWatt batteries?
EcoWatt series batteries, including the 12V 100Ah Lithium LiFePO4 Battery, are equipped with several safety features to ensure safe and reliable operation. They include protections against overcharging, deep discharge, short circuit and overheating. A Battery Management System (BMS) is integrated to monitor performance and safety, ensuring optimal charging and discharging and protecting the battery from extreme operating conditions.
Can EcoWatt batteries be used in series or parallel?
Yes, EcoWatt Series Lithium LiFePO4 batteries can be configured in series or parallel to achieve the desired voltage or capacity. By connecting them in series, you increase the overall voltage (for example, two 12V batteries connected in series will provide 24V). By connecting them in parallel, you increase the capacity (two 100Ah batteries in parallel will provide 200Ah at 12V). However, it is crucial to ensure that the batteries have the same capacity and state of charge before connecting them to avoid imbalances.
What criteria should I consider when purchasing an EcoWatt battery for my specific application?
When purchasing an EcoWatt battery, there are several criteria to consider to ensure it will meet the specific needs of your application. First
