@Barkuti Very interesting. I only new about LiFePO packs that fit in the palm of my hand…
@jeff51 I’m still have to draw a firm conclusion, but the price of LiFePO can’t be simply compared to lead-acid.
A lead-acid battery must not be discharged more than 50%. So I can only use 50Ah of a 100Ah battery.
For a LiFePO that’s 80Ah of 100Ah.
That means in (my) practical use, I should compare prices of 100Ah lead-acid with a 62Ah LiFePO.
Did a very quick search and looking at it that way a LiFePO4 costs 10% extra. Shipping is a much bigger issue.
If want to draw 50A a 250Ah lead-acid battery is advised. Or 50Ah LiFePO.
Only 4kg for 55Ah, 12v LiFePO pack?
The claimed charging current is all over the place 3A…34A
