The AC-to-DC Charger is an portable charger intended for 12V Lithium-iron phosphate (Lifepo4) batteries. Its outputs power based on the battery's power, voltage, and current condition. The unit's status indicator light illustrates the connected battery's operating mode and condition. The Portable LFP charger automatically monitors and maintains the battery at full charge. Lithium-iron phosphate (Lifepo4) batteries chargers are based on a CV/CC (constant voltage/constant current) charge algorithm.
The charger limits the amount of current to a pre-set level until the battery reaches a pre-set voltage level. The current then reduces as the battery becomes fully charged.
This system allows fast charging without the risk of over-charging. Ultimately, using a charger with a specific Lithium charge algorithm is the best option for maximum performance and lifespan of any Lithium-iron phosphate (Lifepo4) battery. Using any other charger may cause damage to the Lithium-iron phosphate (Lifepo4) battery. (3) Output: 14.6V 10A/20A/30A/40A. Question: Can I charge my lithium battery with a lead acid charger?
Lithium batteries are not like lead acid and not all battery chargers are the same. A 12v lithium LiFePO4 battery fully charged to 100% will hold voltage around 13.3-13.4v. Its lead acid cousin will be approx 12.6-12.7v. A lithium battery at 20% capacity will hold voltage around 13V, its lead acid cousin will be approx 11.8v at the same capacity.As you can see, we are playing with a very narrow window of voltage with lithium, less than 0.5V over 80% capacity. Lithium chargers are based on a CV/CC (constant voltage/constant current) charge algorithm. This system allows fast charging without the risk of over-charging and is suitable for Lithium Iron and other battery types. Ultimately, using a battery charger with a specific Lithium charge algorithm is the best option for maximum performance and lifespan of any lithium battery. Using any other charger may cause damage to the Lithium battery.
