This 60Ah Lithium SuperPack battery from power management specialists, Victron Energy, is easy to use with its built-in BMS (Battery Management System) and multiple safety features. Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology offers huge benefits over traditional lead-acid technology and is fast becoming the new standard for leisure, marine and other deep cycle leisure battery applications.
Lithium batteries are very tolerant of poor charging practices and will not be damaged if left fully or partially discharged; in fact, their service life is maximised if left in a partially discharged state. They are far lighter than lead-acid equivalents, can accept higher charge rates, can be more deeply discharged and don't suffer the same voltage 'tail-off'. They also have a better 'round-trip' (100% charge to 0% and back to 100%) efficiency of 90%+ compared with as low as 50% for lead-acid (particularly at shallow-discharges).
For safety, the BMS switch in this SuperPack battery will disconnect it from charging sources and loads when charge or discharge currents are too high and will prevent charging at low temperatures (below 0°C).
