Ignoring price (very hard to ignore), Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO) batteries are far superior to any lead acid battery for 2 reasons :
• You can discharge them down to almost 0% SOC with no damage (more usable energy for the same rating)
I'm sure Stircrazy would subscribe to this view point--but BattleBorn deliberately derates their 100 amp-hour to 100 from a "real" 120 amp-hour.
So far as I am aware the rest of the Li makers don't protect the end user this way.
Could it be the battery management systems are keeping the bottom 20% from being used?
Hi pt,
Lynac battery Thunder Bay ON rates their Li batteries at "true" available aH's'z as well. 100 aH battery = 100 useable aH's'z.
