Page 4: Benefits Of Allspark Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries
2. Benefits of AllSpark Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries LiFePO4 batteries are far superior to lead acid batteries in every way: 1/4 of the weight of AGM batteries with the same usable capacity Smaller physical dimensions (2/3 of the size) ... -
Page 5: Parallel & Series Connection
4. Parallel & Series connection All AllSpark batteries can be connected in parallel. Extensively tested and with thousands of customers across Oz with parallel battery setups (including our own vehicles), this practice is very safe and will not affect longevity of your batteries and is covered by your 4-year warranty under the following conditions: Parallel 1. -
Page 6: Battery Usage - Charge And Discharge
5. Battery usage – Charge and Discharge Discharging Maximum life in terms of cycles and time will be obtained by keeping battery state of charge above 50%, however all AllSpark batteries can be discharged to 100% (10.5V) without damage to the cells or BMS. Regular deep discharge of the battery will “wear” the battery at a faster rate, however you are also receiving more “used amp hours”... - Page 7 Special Note for engine bay applications AllSpark 100ah battery with 200A continuous output (500A peak – 5 secs) BMS is designed for use in engine bay applications but must be treated correctly to maximise its performance and longevity.

6. Charge sources – DCDC, Solar, Alternator & Mains/Generators If you need help selecting or matching a charger for your battery, please contact us for recommendations on makes/models to correctly and safely charge your AllSpark LiFePO4 battery. You may charge your battery using any or all of the following types of chargers. Each charger must have a dedicated LiFePO4 profile and be of the correct nominal voltage. -
Page 9: State Of Charge
7. State of Charge State of charge is somewhat difficult to determine on LiFePO4 batteries by voltage alone due to the very stable and much higher operating voltage throughout much of the range of use from 100% down to 20%. AllSpark batteries required 14.6V (3.65V per cell) for 100% charge, though you will see a slight increase in overall cycle life if you limit charging to as low as 13.9V (3.475V per cell). -

8. BMS protection re-activation If by chance you happen to use the full 100% capacity of the battery and allow the voltage to drop to 10.0V (or any cell drops to 2.5V), then the low voltage protection mode will be activated. -
