Upgrade to Lithium FE battery question
I currently have two Renogy AGM batteries, hooked to a Renogy PWM Solar Charge Controller and also charging from the converter. I just scored on a pair of LiTimes LiFEO4 batteries. Plan to instal...

Dont forgert to check the max input amps and output amps on those batterys some of the bms's will omly allow yuo to charge at half the rated amp hours so say 100 ah might only charge at 50 and also make sure the bms will output 100AH some wont it will state that in the specs of the batteries
You might have 200 AH but can only use up to 100 AH but for a longer period of time

since he told us the battery he bought we don't have to speculate and put generic warnings out.. here is the charge section for his batteries
"
BMS：
100A
Max. Continuous Output Power：
1280W
Max. Continuous Charge Current：
100A
Max. Continuous Discharge Current：
100A
Max. Discharge Current 5 Seconds：
280A"
so he said he bought two so they can handle up to 200amps of charging
and as for this statment
"You might have 200 AH but can only use up to 100 AH but for a longer period of time"
that is totaly wrong, you can use 100% of the charge in a LifePo4 and get at minimum the rated life out of them so long term he can use 200AH
