Qoltec LiFePO4 Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery 12.8V 100Ah 1280Wh with Bluetooth and BMS

The Qoltec LiFePO4 Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery is a high-performance energy storage solution designed for demanding applications. With a nominal voltage of 12.8V, a capacity of 100Ah, and a total energy storage of 1280Wh, this battery provides a stable and reliable power source. It features an integrated Battery Management System (BMS) that monitors cell health and protects against overcharging, deep discharge, and short circuits. The inclusion of Bluetooth connectivity allows users to monitor battery status, voltage, and capacity in real-time via a mobile device.

Advantages

This lithium iron phosphate battery offers significant advantages over traditional lead-acid alternatives, including a much longer cycle life and a lighter overall weight. The deep-cycle technology ensures consistent power delivery even under heavy loads, while the high thermal stability of the LiFePO4 chemistry enhances operational safety. The integrated BMS ensures optimal performance and longevity by balancing cells during charge and discharge cycles, while the Bluetooth interface provides convenient access to critical diagnostic data without needing physical access to the battery terminals.

Suitable for

• Off-grid solar power systems
• Marine and boating electronics
• Recreational vehicles and campers
• Renewable energy storage solutions
• Backup power supplies for critical equipment

When it may not be suitable

This battery is not intended for use as a high-current starter battery for internal combustion engines, as its discharge characteristics are optimized for deep-cycle applications rather than short, high-amperage bursts. Additionally, it may not be suitable for environments where temperatures consistently drop below freezing without an integrated heating element, as charging efficiency decreases in extreme cold.

Key specifications

• Nominal voltage: 12.8V
• Capacity: 100Ah
• Energy: 1280Wh
• Technology: LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate)
• Connectivity: Bluetooth for status monitoring
• Protection: Integrated Battery Management System (BMS)

How to use

To use the battery, connect it to your system using appropriate gauge cables, ensuring the positive and negative terminals are correctly identified. Before initial use, it is recommended to fully charge the battery using a compatible LiFePO4 charger. You can pair the battery with your smartphone via the dedicated application to monitor real-time metrics such as voltage, current, and state of charge. Ensure the battery is installed in a secure, ventilated location away from direct heat sources.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing charger or solar charge controller supports LiFePO4 charging profiles.
• Ensure the physical dimensions of the battery compartment are compatible with the unit size.
• Confirm that your application does not require high-cranking currents typical of starter batteries.
• Check the compatibility of the Bluetooth monitoring app with your mobile operating system.

Usage recommendations

For maximum service life, avoid discharging the battery below 10% capacity and store it in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods. Regularly check the Bluetooth app to ensure the cells remain balanced and the battery is operating within safe temperature parameters.
