Talk About LiFePO4‘s Deep Cycle

Hello,Everyone.Here is Acoucou Battery.Today, Acoucou would like to talk to you about what is a deep cycle lithium iron phosphate battery.

Acoucou think that for those of you reading this article you must have discovered the questions, what exactly is a deep cycle? What are its criteria? Why is every brand a deep cycle? Why does everyone say that? Who should I listen to? Of course there may be some people who didn’t find this problem at all and bought a certain brand of battery products in a confused manner or followed the advice of a certain youtuber, Acoucou thinks that you should think about this matter by yourself first.

Let yourself know where you are spending your money.In order to talk about deep cycle LiFePO4, it has a prerequisite, it must be A-grade cells.A $300 12V 100Ah lithium iron phosphate battery that says to you it’s deep cycle, take it to court!NO WAY!!!Different levels of battery it must have a different price range, perhaps you know more observation, cheap B-class cells of lithium iron phosphate is basically non-existent deep cycle, because its cells are basically have been re-given the second life of the cells, no matter what technology is not possible to achieve the cycle standard and number of A-grade cells.

So what is the concept of deep circulation? When a cell is being produced, the durability of its material determines its final life. B-grade cells can be understood as recycled cells, while A-grade cells are cells with brand new contents, both with far different material durability and simply activated capacity. Deep cycle represents the core technology of lithium iron phosphate batteries, the number of cycles is much greater than the past lead-acid batteries, such as many brands now announced that 2000 + cycls; 3000 + cycles; 4000 + cycles; 6000 + cycles; even 10,000 + cycles, how to judge?

Acoucou refers to this standard as DOD, a lovely word.DOD means depth of discharge. All the cells are selected from the same batch of material cells for testing after they are made, and different DODs will yield different cycle counts, which is the source of so many numbers.

Take Acoucou’s MaxOne 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery as an example, we claim to have 4000+ deep cycle times, so under what circumstances is this data detected? You can check the operation manual of MaxOne 12V 100Ah

The 80% DOD is to simulate the depth of charge and discharge when most people normally use the battery, that is, the number of cycles of normal use, Acoucou’s claim of 4000+ cycles is more in line, and Acoucou can also claim their 6000+ cycles, or even 10000+ cycles, that is because behind these cycle times means different DOD. If you see a LiFePO4 battery priced at $300 claiming 10,000+ cycles, you may need to note that it says the number of cycles is only 10% of the DOD or 5% of the case, because itself is the B-class cells, to achieve so many cycles, you can only aggravate the user will normally discharge the battery to about 5% on the charge so that you will not occur After-sales disputes.

Deep cycle will be one of the core concepts of LiFePO4 sustained, but also one of the points you as a buyer to consider,some users have responded to this deep cycle is a complete gimmick, feel cheated, it is because you did not find its detailed test data, or the other party is not prepared to show you these data, what can be called deep cycle, what is the standard, I believe that after reading this article, you will no longer listen to the brand side how to boast about their deep cycle, but their own heart will have a judgment, spend less money in vain.
