Why are LiFePO4 batteries safer?
If you are struggling to choose which type of battery to use for applications such as UPS/AGV/AMR/lead-acid replacement/solar lights/off-grid solar/startup power, I will recommend the safest option: lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. Why are LiFePO4 batteries safer? Let’s discuss LiFePO4 batteries together. What is a lithium iron phosphate battery? Lithium iron phosphate batteries, also known as LFP batteries, are lithium-ion batteries with a positive electrode material of lithium iron phosphate and a negative electrode material of carbon. The nominal voltage of a single LiFePO4 cell is 3.2V, and they can be assembled into battery packs with different voltages and currents through various series and parallel configurations. What are the characteristics of lithium iron phosphate batteries? High Charge/Discharge Efficiency: LiFePO4 batteries have a charge/discharge efficiency of over 90%. High Safety: LiFePO4 batteries are structurally more stable compared to other lithium batt
