There is a lot of misinformation on the internet about the charging profiles between SLA and Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries. The voltage settings for the absorption charge or the float charge are close enough to be ignored when switching from SLA to lithium. Sealed lead acid batteries typically have charge currents that are 1/10th to 1/3rd of the rated capacity, whereas lithium batteries can be charged from 1/5th to 100% of the rated capacity вЂ“ meaning a much faster charge time. The charging settings for current and voltage only slightly differ for a sealed lead acid battery versus a lithium battery. The primary difference in the methods are the speed at which the batteries will be recharged вЂ“ multi-stage charge systems are design to charge batteries as quick as possible. Within an RV there may be multiple sources for charging the battery, but typically the RV will employ a single charging method.

Multi-stage charge systems Bulk charging at constant current, absorption charging at a constant voltage and float charging to maintain the battery at 100% state of charge.

Float charging at a current limited constant voltage.

Trickle charging at a low constant current.

Methods refer to how the voltage and current are controlled when charging the batteries.

Alternator вЂ“ Engine charges battery when it is running.

Solar вЂ“ RV has solar array to provide both power and battery charging.

Generator вЂ“ RV has a generator to provide both power and battery charging.

Shore power вЂ“ RV is connected to an AC outlet.

When we talk about charging sources, this refers to how the electricity is produced. In addition to the many different types of recreational vehicles there are also many different sources and methods used by RVвЂ™s to charge the batteries.

Simple connect your battery and you are ready to go! No topping up with water, completely maintenance free.

Power Sonic lithium batteries are available in a variety of BCI standard group sizes and can be used as a drop-in replacement or upgrade to leadДЄ low self-discharge rate with lithium batteries means worry free storage, so even with seasonal use you can be sure your battery wont let you down. Power Sonic lithium batteries can be installed upright or on their side allowing for flexible installation and easy configuration. For larger RVвЂ™s this could result in a weight saving of 50~100kg Flexible Installation Lithium Batteries Weigh LessДҐ0~70% less weight than the equivalent capacity lead acid battery. Another benefit is the quick and efficient energy storage from solar panels that can be integrated to your recreational vehicle. Faster charging means there is more time the battery can be in use. Lithium battery charging can be up to 4 times faster than with lead acid. This brings down the cost per cycle of a lithium battery lower than lead acid, meaning you will replace a lithium battery less often than a lead acid battery in a recreational vehicle. Power Sonic RV lithium batteries deliver up to 10 times longer cycle life than a lead acid battery. For increased safety our lithium RV batteries are integrated with an advanced Protection Circuit Module (PCM) that protects against over-charge, over-discharge, over-temperatureДЄnd short circuit situations. Power Sonic lithium batteries utilize LiFePO4 chemistry, which is the safest lithium chemistry on the market today. This means you can be confident when running all your electronics that, with a lithium battery there will be plenty of capacity in reserve. With a very high discharge rate, for instance 0.8C, the capacity of a lead acid battery will only be 60% of the rated capacity. Lithium batteries give you the ability to use 100% of their capacity, regardless of the discharge rate. Travel further more efficiently without compromising on reliability and performance with a battery designed to perform in the most demanding conditions. Power Sonic lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries deliver everything needed to support life on the road.
