Litime 12V 230Ah LiFePO4 Battery, 4000+ Deep Cycles Lithium Rechargeable Battery, Backup Power for RV, Travel Trailer, Trolling Motor

Used it for a a year and a half, boondocking last winter for 5 months in the SW desert. Worked flawlessly. Using solar for 90% of the charging and generator for the no sun days. Still as good as new. This was the best upgrade on my travel trailer and well worth the money. I will never go back to lead acid now that lithium is priced comparable to standard batteries.

Packaged well. Nice lifting handles. Light weight. Good price. Charged well with my PowerMax 75 amp converter in my RV. Performs well so far but only in use a short time. Will update in a year or two.

Yes this battery is amazing. We went off grid for 4 days and it never loss any charge. Super fast shipping that we got it 2 days before what was estimated. Happy campers about this battery!

I wanted to publish the following information I received from Li Time Customer Service after I sent them an email that I was having some strange behavior when initially charging the battery using a 14.6V 20A Li Time Charger that I also purchased. This might help others avoid confusion and frustration. I can say that their support was excellent and within the 24 hour response time they promise. I will share the description of the issue I sent to Li Time and the response I received. It turns out that everything was operating as designed. I did respond back to them and ask that they publish the explanation in their product manuals and/or Website so customers don't waste time TS or think they have a faulty product. Issue: I just bought a 12V 230Ah from Amazon and delivered 3/15/24. I also bought at Li Time 14.6V 20A charger from Amazon. I was finally able to charge and use this weekend. I measured the standing voltage at 13.17V "As Shipped" to me. I connected the charger and let it run all day. When I first connected the charger, I measured the voltage across the terminals at 13.46V. A few hours later it measured 13.6. Again a few hours later it measured 14.1V. Hours later I checked the charger and the Li Time LED light was flashing Red and then Green. At that point I measured the standing voltage at was 12.94V. I'm not sure the 12.94 voltage make sense if the battery is fully charged. I expected the standing voltage to be much higher when fully charged. I assumed a fully charged battery would have a standing voltage of 13.6V. I connected the battery today to my RV and tested by turning on my propane refrigerator. I also connected a Multifunction Meter with a shunt to monitor voltage and current. When I first connected the meter and shunt with no load, the voltage measured 12.84V. When I turned on the RV refrigerator, the voltage measured 12.62V. A few minutes later I looked at the meter again and the voltage measured 13.24V. 2.5 hours later the voltage measured 13.21. This seemed very odd to me that the voltage jumped from 12.62 to 13.24 in a few minutes. There is no AC power and/or charger connected to the RV. minutes. Can you help me to understand if this is normal or is there an issue with the battery and/or my charging process. I really need some advice on this and what next steps to take. Thank you in advance Response: Thank you contacting LiTime service, it's Ricket, i will be of your any assistance. Don't worried, it was the over-charged protection by the BMS. The original intention of our design is that after the battery is fully charged to about 14.4V, theoretically the battery voltage will slowly fall back to the resting voltage of about 13.33V after charging is turned off. However, the logic of most protection boards and chargers currently on the market is When the voltage drops back to about 13.8-14V, charging will be restarted unless the charger is disconnected. If the user does not disconnect the charger in time, it means that the battery will be cut off by repeated charging and cause voltage oscillation. Therefore, when we develop the protection board, we will protect the battery. The recovery voltage of the board after overcharging is designed to the battery's resting voltage of 13.33V, so that the battery will not be repeatedly charged and cut off, which is a benefit for protecting the board. After the battery is charged, the measured voltage is about 12.9V, which is exactly The virtual voltage after full charge protection. At this time, the charging channel is closed, but it does not affect the use. As long as the protection board is normally loaded, it will be reactivated and started. When you checked the resting voltage within 12.8-13.1V after fully charged, just need to connect with the small rated load to discharge 2-3 minutes with greater 2A discharge current and then you will see the resting voltage ≥13.33V. Thanks for your understanding and wish you a good day.

Since this has just been installed, I have no idea about it's 'longevity' and 'value for the money', but I DO have an idea about the 'Easy to Install' aspect. These replaced two very large and VERY heavy group 31 AGM batteries in our motor home. This battery appears to be about 1/4 the weight of the two it replaced, so THAT, by itself, is a very good thing!. With our old setup, all the cables and main battery fuse box ran between the two batteries, so, in order to install this LONG battery, I had to remove and reposition everything to one end of the battery box (under the entry steps). It took around 4 hours, but this thing fit perfectly. Will post a followup in the future as to the 'longevity' and 'value for the money' features. 2.4.25 Update: I've had this battery for 1-1/2 years and it's performed well, until TODAY! I've had the motorhome here at the house working on a lot of things over the past 4 days, with no shore power and the generator off, with the interior lights and accessories draining the battery. This morning I tried to bring in the slide and nothing happened. None of the lights in the motorhome worked either. So, I checked the voltage on my interior display panel. ZERO volts. ZERO! Rechecked with my multimeter, same thing ZERO volts. Tried to connect NOCO jump starter, and the thing would just shut down like it was shorted out! Then I connected my BIG jump starter with the same results. So, I had to do some SERIOUS thinking.......Kinda like Wily Coyote on those old Road Runner cartoons! I figured maybe the motorhome house 'load' (the main switch was 'ON' to supply all the house) needed to be 'OFF' so the BMS woould reset with just a charger on it and NOT also the load from the house. So, with the BIG charger hooked up and ON (but not charging), I reached over an switched the main house switch OFF. The battery charger IMMEDIATELY switched to actively charging! So the key is to switch off all current loading to the lithium battery and the connect the charger. After a couple of minutes, the BMS was happy, I disconnected the charger, and hooked up shore power. Battery is now recharged and All is good!

Good battery- light & has a lot of capacity. I ran my Haswing 1 Hp, 65lb thrust OB for over two hrs at 90-100% cranked doing about 5 MPH in a 14 ft Saturn Kaboat. I still had 44% power left. I bought two 12 V mini’s at $319 each less than two weeks ago. Now they are $271 each- too bad I couldn’t get a discount then. That’s the reason for the 4 stars. I bought a 40 A charger to charge. It took about 1.2 hrs to top off. We should be good to fish all day with two batteries & at around 3 MPH.

This was the lightest battery in its class that I could purchase to run my kayak trolling motor. Bluetooth app that shows battery charge and other stats works great. Battery charged as expected using a 10 amp charger. Haven’t had an opportunity to use it on the water yet, but otherwise everything works as expected.

Great battery this is my second purchased
