    How to Size Battery Adapter Cables? Use appropriately sized Battery Adapter Cables (sold separately) based on expected load. Refer to the table below for copper cable ampacities with different gauge sizes. Cable Gauge Size Ampacity Cable Gauge Size Ampacity 14 AWG (2.08 mm²) 2 AWG (33.6 mm²) 190A 12 AWG (3.31 mm²)
  • Page 9: Step 1. Plan A Mounting Site

    Step 1. Plan a Mounting Site For optimal battery performance, it is recommended to install the battery in a clean, cool, and dry location, free from any accumulation of water, oil, or dirt. Accumulation of such materials on the battery can lead to current leakage, self-discharge, and even short-circuiting.

    Step 2: Use a voltmeter to measure the voltage of each battery. It is best to keep the voltage difference of each battery less than 0.1V. Step 3: Connect all the batteries in parallel and allow them to rest together for 12 to 24 hours. 12~24h It is recommended to periodically rebalance the battery voltages every six months when connecting multiple batteries as a battery system.

Each battery cell group is connected with a bypass resistor and a switch in parallel. During the charging process, if the highest- voltage battery cell group reaches the set balancing starting voltage and the voltage difference between the highest-voltage and the lowest-voltage battery cell group exceeds the set voltage difference, the switch connected to the highest-voltage battery cell group will be closed to shunt the charge current around the...

  • Page 18: Discharging Logic

    Lithium batteries are compatible with various charging methods, including MPPT charge controller, AC charger, and DC-DC charger. The crucial parameter setting for these chargers is to set the charge voltage, boost voltage, or bulk voltage at 14.4V (±0.2V). Do not overcharge or overdischarge the battery. Do not charge the battery at low temperatures below 32°F (0°C) and discharge the battery at high temperatures above 140°F (60°C).
