Lithium batteries 5: Œuvre layout
Now that the theoretical bases were exposed, It is time to practice.
Nothing easier than to charge a lithium battery : You connect to a current source continuous maximum current is limited to 0, 3 c (120A for a battery of 400Ah) and the maximum voltage limited to 13.8V When the voltage reaches 13.8V and the current drops to 0.025C (10A…
Any battery is potentially dangerous ! Even if the lithium batteries (LiFePo4) are the safest of the lithium batteries (and might even present less risk than the battery lead), they can easily be destroyed and/or be dangerous in certain extreme situations...
See performance clearly superior to those of the lead-acid batteries, the lithium battery (LiFePo4) seems the best choice for the boat service batteries. But they are very sensitive to certain parameters that must master before embarking on this adventure.
Coming from the unibody I had kept the habit of putting, on Tao, a hoist used boom by wind. It was struck between the central cleat and a bridge to the 2/3 the back of the boom... until the day when the cleat pulled out... and a buddy has folded its boom with the same technical!!! As we learn…
