A Deep Dive Into The B-LFP LT Series Batteries: How They Function And Why You Need Them

Published by BSLBATTNov 16,2020

In this week’s blog, we’re discussing the Low Temperature, or LT, line of BSLBATT lithium batteries. Lithium batteries have limited charging capabilities in temperatures below 32°F (0°C) – therefore, having a battery designed specifically for low-temperature conditions can help extend the life of your battery and keep you powered. This week we’ll review what LT is, why it’s needed, how Low Temperature (LT) Models function, and how to choose the right Low Temperature (LT) Models for your application. What happens without LT? LiFePO4 batteries function from the electrochemical potential of metal, specifically the electrolyte within the battery carrying lithium ions between the anode and the cathode during charging and discharging. All batteries function best in mild to warm climates since the electrochemical process slows the colder it becomes. Although you may notice reduced capacity in temperatures below 32°F (0°C), it is perfectly safe to discharge your LiFePO4 batteries in tem...

What is the Best Battery for Cold Weather? In order to make the most of the COVID-19 pandemic and the opportunity to work remotely, Each winter we see temperatures in the -40F to -20F at our factory in Grand Forks, ND. That’s cold enough that you can throw a cup of coffee in the air and it will freeze before hitting the ground. Up here on the great plains the cold weather is unforgiving – high winds, deep snow, long nights. BSLBATT Lithium was born out of this rugged landscape. We wanted to build a battery to endure harsh conditions and low temperatures for a long time. Here’s what we learned: Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries Are the Best Battery for Cold Weather When it comes to powering RVs, boats, golf cars and electric vehicles, or providing storage for solar power systems, BSLBATT’s lithium iron phosphate batteries offer several advantages over lead-acid batteries. They have longer life. They are lighter weight, and yet have a higher capacity. They require no maintenance an...

Lithium Batteries for Floor Machines Cleaning industry professionals are always on new technology to make their jobs more efficient. But they can’t take a chance on unproven solutions. That’s one reason why lithium-ion (Li-on) batteries are growing in popularity. Facility cleaning professionals and building service contractors recognize the potential role of lithium-ion battery technology in day-to-day operations. Specifically, these batteries are poised to make an immediate impact as power sources for floor cleaning machines. Read on to learn how Lithium-Ion Technology are changing the face of the cleaning industry. LIFE Probably the most well-known and obvious benefit is a significantly longer life. Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries will provide 5 – 10 times more cycles than lead-acid batteries. This means you aren’t replacing your batteries every 2-4 years. And, replacing lead-acid batteries is not a fun task; first, there is downtime to do the battery r...

With lithium batteries becoming a more common option in RV solar, it can add to the information overload for both dealers and customers alike. Do they go with the traditional AGM or move to Li-Ion Technology? Here are a few tips to weigh the benefits of each battery type for your customer and help them make a more informed decision. Lifespan and Costs Budgets play a huge role in deciding which battery to get. With Lithium batteries being more expensive, to begin with, it can seem like a no-brainer to go with an AGM. But what causes this difference? AGM batteries remain less expensive because the materials used to make them are inexpensive and widely available. Lithium batteries, on the other hand, use more expensive materials with some being harder to come by Li-Ion Technology. Another part of the decision-making process to consider is the lifespan of these batteries. This is where the initial cost of the Lithium could be offset. The following points highlight the differences be...

Lithium-ion battery technology has popped in and out of the news in recent years, mostly for safety concerns. But engineers who understand how lithium batteries work know that it’s among the best and safest commercial options for energy storage needs. So despite exploding cellphones, smoldering plane engines, and hover-boards that are too hot to ride, lithium-ion batteries remain the go-to energy storage technology worldwide and account for 95 percent of newly announced energy storage projects in 2020, according to a new report by Navigant Research. Safety is a full-fledged design feature with lithium batteries, and for good reason. As we’ve all seen, the chemistry and energy density that allows lithium-ion batteries to work so well also makes them flammable, so when the batteries malfunction, they often make a spectacular and dangerous mess. All lithium chemistries are not created equal. In fact, most BSLBATT Lithium consumers – electronic enthusiasts aside – are only familiar ...
