Alternatively, use strapping and clamping to secure the battery in place. Maintain an acceptable temperature range Like all batteries, LBS batteries operate and perform the best, as well as last the longest, in a cool and stable temperature environment between 10 C and 25 C.
If you are unsure how to install the battery, seek advice from LBS or a suitably qualified electrical tradesperson. Check to ensure the connecting Anderson plugs are correctly wired (positive and negative) and do not attempt to mismatch Anderson colours when connecting.
A capacity ‘overhead’ ensures lower DoD, extended life and therefore a higher financial return on your investment. LBS Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries have a cycle life of 5,000 cycles at 50% DoD and 2,000 cycles at 80% DoD.
Installation & User Guide SL Range Battery Management System Your battery comes with an integrated Battery Management System (BMS). The BMS is an electronic solid-state circuit board which manages the cells and protects the battery across a range of scenarios which primarily includes over charge and over discharge protection. Unlike lead acid batteries, over charging or over discharging a lithium battery may lead to a hazardous scenario.
Installation & User Guide SL Range Installation Stowage The Slimline battery is likely to be stowed in a car, RV or 4WD or used as a portable battery for camping. An important part of the battery installation is securely fixing it down or safely stowing it away during transport so that it does not become a projectile in an accident.
Anderson plugs at the top. In this configuration the internal cells are upside down which is against the cell manufacturer’s recommendations. Please refer to the figures below. Figure 5: Recommended orientation for Figure 6: Do not install the LBS-1275-SL/ LBS-1275-SL/LBS-12110-SL (-DCS) batteries. LBS-12110-SL (-DCS) in the above orientation.
5.3.1 LBS-1275-SL and LBS-12110-SL The LBS-1275-SL and LBS-12110-SL models are equipped with two (2) convenient grey Anderson plug connectors, accessible from the side of the battery as shown in Figure 9. Both can be used as input and outputs for charging and running loads.
SL Range 5.3.3 LBS-1275-SL-DCS and LBS-12110-SL-DCS The LBS-1275-SL-DC and LBS-12110-SL-DCS models feature one (1) grey Anderson plug and one (1) blue Anderson plug as shown in Figure 11. The single grey Anderson can be used as an input/output for charging or running loads. The blue Anderson connector is reserved for a 10V to 16V DC input, to make use of the internal DC-DC charger.
Installation & User Guide SL Range Connecting to the integrated DC-DC charger (DCS models only) Configuring the DC-DC Charger 5.4.1 As you look at the 20A DC-DC charger, there is an LED and 2 rotary switches on the side face of the battery.

Installation & User Guide SL Range Example: If you select ‘0’ for the Voltage Switch Position, then the source battery will stop delivering charge once it drops to 10.0V. So that the source battery voltage does not get too low, its best to select a higher voltage shut off point, such as ‘4’...
Installation & User Guide SL Range User Guide Once the battery is securely installed and electrically connected it will automatically be available for use. The internal BMS will actively ensure the battery is always protected and operating safely. The battery requires no user interface or intervention under normal conditions.
