LITHIUM BATTERIES FOR MOTORHOMES

Deep cycle lithium batteries for Motorhomes are becoming more popular as they offer many advantages over traditional lead-acid batteries. At Lithium Pro Energy we think we’ve designed the ideal Leisure Batteries for Motorhome.

A Lithium battery is perfect for use in a Motorhomes as they do not release toxic or harmful gases during charging or discharging. They are safe to have onboard your Motorhome with no need for gas or safety checks so you can sleep easy with your battery onboard.

WHY DO I NEED A LITHIUM BATTERY FOR MY MOTORHOME ?

At Lithiumpro we have designed our batteries specifically for use in Motorhomes, Campervans, Caravans and Boats. In particular, we have made use of the familiar Automotive style battery box with base rails for safely securing them into your vehicle. Additionally, we continue to use the high quality Brass terminal posts for the battery terminal connections. However, thats where the similarities end…
Inside, there are no chemicals. We use Premium Grade A ‘EVE’ Cells in our low profile battery. As a result they have the ability to be cycled up to 4000 times. In summary this means 10+ years of daily use. We have also made them serviceable by redesigning the battery top with secure fixings in an effort to future proof your investment. We do not glue our cases but use screw top lids for piece of mind that they can be serviced.

HOW TO REDUCE THE WEIGHT OF MY MOTORHOME?

Weighing in at less than 60% of your old deep cycle Lead-acid leisure battery. Our Lithium batteries offer 100% useable capacity – Unlike, your existing battery you can USE all the published amp hours in a single discharge without damaging your battery. Try this 4000 times before your battery will even start to feel the strain.

Two of our SMARTIQ batteries are designed to fit perfectly under the seat of you fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer and Citroen Relay. See fitment diagram Recharge them in as little as just 1 hour and you’re ready to drain again. They will connect seamlessly to your solar system.

ARE LITHIUM BATTERIES REALLY 'PLUG & PLAY' ?

PLUG & PLAY TECHNOLOGY

Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries (LiFePO4) can be used as a versatile alternative to 12v Lead-acid leisure batteries in most situations.

LithiumPro Energy SMARTIQ SERIES batteries all have DIN Standard size battery cases, that fit perfectly into your motorhome, caravan, campervan or boat. Our new generation of  battery is the same size shell as your old lead-acid battery. Meaning they are identical in size and shape. They also feature standard brass terminals posts, so there is no requirement to change you battery leads or terminal connections.  We have also retained the mounting rail at the base, to enable it to be safely and securely fitted into your battery tray. There is no need to find creative ways in which to securely mount your new lithium battery. 

All LithiumPro batteries can be charged with Lead acid chargers that charge between 14.2-14.6v.  A dedicated lithium LiFePO4 charger is ideal as it will charge faster and more efficiently but is NOT required with our batteries.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

No special charger is required.  Any normal lead-acid battery charger designed to output a Constant Voltage Constant Current (CCCV) charge profile, which 95% of chargers do, then this is fine and safe for LithiumPro batteries. Many battery chargers will have pre-programmed settings for different battery chemistries.  For Lithium batteries, select the ‘LiFePO4’ profile or the closest charge profile between 14.2-14.6v. 
Of course, should you wish to upgrade to a lithium based charger, we would recommend this, as it will charge faster and more efficiently, whilst offering more enhanced protection features during charging, thus preserving the life of you battery.

You can charge your Lithium battery using any or all of the three simple ways listed below:-

1.  Harness your alternator’s surplus power to deliver a steady 14.4v charge voltage. Click here for DC-DC Chargers

2. Using a MPPT Solar Charge Controller, you can charge your leisure batteries at a regulated voltage using your solar panels ability to harness the suns energy. Click here for Solar Charge Controllers

3 Using a Mains hook-up charger, you can use a domestic 240v electricity supply to charge you leisure batteries via hook-up or shore power. Click here for Mains Chargers

IMPORTANTWhen you first receive your battery, fully charge it until you get a ‘Cell Over Voltage’ (COV) notification. This indicates the battery is fully charged. Then, complete a full discharge until you get a ‘Cell Under Voltage’ (CUV) notification, showing the battery is fully discharged.This process allows your Battery Management System (BMS) to calibrate the State of Charge (SOC) in your app. The BMS will then learn to provide more accurate data, understanding both the 0% and 100% charge parameters.

It is recommended to charge your battery at ≤0.5C (0.5 times the battery’s rated capacity). For instance, if the battery has a capacity of 100Ah, the recommended charging current would be ≤50 amps. Please observe the maximum charging capacity listed on your battery.

Your Lithium Battery with a Constant Current Constant Voltage charger CCCV with a LiFePO4 charging profile.

Absorption should be set to 14.2-14.6v 

Float should be set to 13.5-13.9v

De-sulfation/Equalisation should be switched off

Most Victron chargers already have a Lithium charging profile. However, should you wish to personalise your settings, please use the following;

Absorption voltage: 14.4V
Absorption time: Recommended setting is half an hour per 100ah of LiFePO4 battery (for example if you have 2x 150ah batteries select 90mins).
Float Voltage: 13.5V
Equalisation voltage: This must be disabled on all Lithium batteries as this can damage the battery with pulses of high voltages. This is designed for lead acid batteries to add with desulfation.
Temperature compensation: This should also be disabled on Lithium batteries.
Charged Voltage: This is where your battery is considered fully charged – Lithium batteries should be set to 14.4V for Victron equipment.
Low Temperature cut-off: The Drift batteries have low temperature charging protection built into the battery. You can leave this off.
Discharge Floor: 0%
Tail Current: This is the minimum current at which the Smart Shunt considers charging or discharging finished. We recommend 4%.
Peukert Exponent: Not required – this is for Lead Acid batteries.

Yes our SMARTIQ Series batteries are all ‘Drop-In’ Lead-Acid replacements. They are exactly the same size and shape as your old Lead-Acid batteries with the exact same terminal posts, so there is not need to change your electrical connections. They even have the base rail at the base to safely secure your battery in place. No need to look for inventive ways to strap a chinese replacement battery down. Click here for ‘Drop-In’ replacement batteries.

Yes, all LithiumPro Energy batteries can be connected in Series or Parallel up to a maximum of 4 units. Our SMARTIQ BMS APP with also be able to display your battery system as a whole in both Series or Parallel configurations.

WARNING: Never connect Lithium batteries of different brands, capacities, or ages together. All brands have unique Battery Management Systems (BMS), and mixing can cause imbalances in charging or discharging, potentially leading to overheating and premature failure. NOTE: Always fully charge each battery separately before connecting them in series or parallel. LithiumPro batteries can be configured as follows:

  • In series to increase voltage up to 24V, 36V, or a maximum of 48V.
  • In parallel up to a maximum of 4 batteries for the SMARTIQ SERIES. Or a maximum of 8 batteries for SMARTCOMM SERIES.

For series configuration, ensure each battery is charged to within 0.05V of each other to prevent imbalances.

For parallel configurations, use cables that are as short and identical in length as possible; batteries naturally equalise in voltage when connected this way.

Lithium batteries are extremely reliable technology. If cared for and looked after according to the manufacturers guidelines you should still be using your battery in 10+ years time. LithiumPro Energy only use traceable Grade-A Prismatic cell technology in all of their batteries which are capable of over 4000-8000 cycles at 80% depth of discharge. Meaning if used every day it will last between 11 -21 years, and still retain 80% of their rated capacity. We are so confident of all our batteries they are covered by our comprehensive 5 year manufacturers warranty.

Yes, you can safely discharge your Lithium Battery down to temperatures as low as -20ºc However, Lithium batteries cannot be charged in temperatures below zero unless they have heaters embedded within the battery. All LithiumPro Batteries have a safety feature built into the battery to prevent it charging below 0ºc. If you are using one of our SMARTCOMM SERIES batteries they are come with heaters on-board as standard Click here to see our ARCTICXTREME V2 Battery designed for charging in colder climates.
