Lead-acid and lithium batteries have distinct characteristics, requiring different charging methods and state-of-charge algorithms to ensure accurate monitoring and optimal performance.
Some lithium batteries are promoted as direct replacements for lead-acid batteries without the need for lithium-compatible equipment. However, these batteries often have a unique discharge curve that differs from both traditional lithium and lead-acid batteries.
As a result, state-of-charge algorithms that calculate using standard battery discharge curves may not provide accurate readings when used with these replacement batteries.
If you need guidance on battery compatibility with BMPRO products, our customer service team is happy to assist.
If I replace my lead-acid batteries with lithium batteries, what compatibility do I need to consider to ensure my system runs correctly?
