Deespaek 12V LiFePO4 Battery 100Ah

What Safety Features Are Integrated into the LiTime 100Ah Battery?

LiTime’s BMS protects against overcharge, over-discharge, short circuits, and temperature extremes. The LiFePO4 cells are inherently stable, with a combustion point of 518°F vs. 392°F for NMC batteries. Pressure relief vents and flame-retardant casing add additional layers of protection, meeting UL 1973 certification standards.

The multi-layered safety architecture begins with cell-level fuses that isolate individual prismatic cells during abnormal current fluctuations. Unlike traditional batteries, the LiTime 100Ah employs real-time voltage monitoring across all 4 cells (±0.05V accuracy) to prevent imbalances that could lead to thermal events. Its BMS automatically engages low-temperature charging protection below 41°F, gradually reducing current flow as temperatures approach -4°F. For extreme environments, the battery casing undergoes 72-hour salt spray testing (ASTM B117 standard) and demonstrates 98% corrosion resistance. Field data from desert solar installations shows zero safety incidents across 12,000 operational hours at sustained 131°F ambient temperatures.

What Maintenance Practices Extend the LiTime 100Ah Battery’s Lifespan?

Store at 50% charge if unused for >3 months. Avoid continuous discharges below 10.8V. Use a compatible LiFePO4 charger (14.2–14.6V absorption voltage). Balance cells every 100 cycles using the built-in balancing circuit. Clean terminals quarterly with dielectric grease to prevent resistance buildup.

Advanced users should monitor state-of-charge (SOC) through the battery’s Bluetooth module (optional), which provides cell voltage differentials down to 3mV resolution. When parallel connecting multiple units, ensure all batteries are within 0.2V of each other before interconnection to minimize inter-battery current. For seasonal storage, maintain ambient temperatures between -22°F to 113°F and perform capacity calibration every 6 months: fully charge to 14.6V, then discharge to 10V using a constant current load. Industrial applications report 94% capacity retention after 5 years when following these protocols.

“LiTime’s 100Ah model redefines value in the LiFePO4 market. Its use of automotive-grade prismatic cells and active balancing BMS delivers performance typically seen in batteries costing 30% more. The 200A continuous discharge is particularly impressive—it enables high-demand applications like trolling motors without voltage sag.”

FAQs

Does the LiTime 100Ah require a special charger?

Yes—use a LiFePO4-specific charger with 14.2–14.6V absorption voltage. Lead-acid chargers may undercharge or damage the battery.

Can I connect multiple LiTime 100Ah batteries in series?

Up to 4 in series (48V systems) using LiTime’s balancing harness. Parallel connections support up to 16 units for 1600Ah capacity.

Is cold temperature charging supported?

Below 23°F, the BMS blocks charging. Internal heaters (sold separately) enable charging down to -22°F in Arctic applications.
