FAQs
Q: Can I use Timeusb LiFePO4 Lithium batteries as starting batteries?
Timeusb LiFePO4 batteries are not meant to be used as starting batteries. They are specifically designed for energy storage and lack the Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) required for starting applications.For more information, please refer to the article "Deep Cycle VS Starting Battery."
Q: What are the ways to charge Timeusb LiFePO4 Lithium batteries? Can I charge with solar panels?
There are 3 ways to charge Timeusb LiFePO4 lithium batteries:
1. Using Solar Panels
The battery can be fully charged in one day (with effective sunshine 4.5 hrs/day) by 400W solar panels. It may take more than one day to fully charge the battery by ≥400W solar panels since the duration and intensity of light would be a great factor for their charging efficiency.
2. Using Generator or Alternator
The Recommended Charging Voltage: 14.2V - 14.6V.
The Recommended Charging Current:
① 20A (0.2C): the battery will be fully charged in around 5 hrs to 100% capacity.
② 50A (0.5C): the battery will be fully charged in around 2 hrs to around 97% capacity.
3. Using LiFePO4 Smart Chargers (Recommended)
To charge 12V battery, it is recommended to use 14.6V battery charger.
The Recommended Charging Voltage: 14.2V - 14.6V.
The Recommended Charging Current:
① 20A (0.2C): the battery will be fully charged in around 5 hrs to 100% capacity.
② 50A (0.5C): the battery will be fully charged in around 2 hrs to around 97% capacity.
Of course you can charge with solar panels.
Q: What is the maximum number of Timeusb 12V 100Ah TM lithium batteries that can be connected?
The Timeusb 12V battery supports a variety of connections, including series, parallel, and series-parallel configurations. You can connect up to 4 batteries in series (4S), 4 batteries in parallel (4P), or 16 batteries in a series-parallel configuration (4P4S).
Q: How long will a 12V lithium-ion battery 100Ah last?
There are two main situations to consider: one for devices that use direct current (DC) and another for those that use alternating current (AC).
For DC devices, battery duration depends on how much power, in watts, these devices require.
For AC devices, you need to think about a few things:
①The Power of the AC device: The power demands of the connected devices or appliances determine the amount of power drawn from the battery, affecting the runtime.
②The efficiency of the inverter that converts DC power to AC power (make sure the inverter can handle the power requirements of the AC device): The efficiency of the inverter affects the overall power conversion and usage, impacting the runtime of the battery.
Keep in mind that actual battery run time may vary depending on the condition of both the battery and the inverter, as well as how the DC/AC device is operating.
