Maintenance Tips
-
Regular Inspection: Check battery terminals and cables monthly for corrosion, tightness, and clean with a soft brush.
-
Keep Clean & Dry: Wipe the battery housing to prevent dirt build-up and moisture that can drain charge.
-
Proper Charging: Use a charger compatible with LiFePO4 chemistry to avoid over/under-charging; avoid trickle chargers not designed for LiFePO4.
-
Stable Storage: If storing the vehicle, maintain a charge level between 50–80% and avoid extreme temperatures.
-
Secure Mounting: Ensure the battery is firmly mounted to reduce vibration and extend lifespan.
-
Avoid Deep Discharge: Start the car regularly and avoid leaving electronics on when the engine is off.
-
Temperature Awareness: Lithium batteries perform best in moderate temperatures; limit exposure to extreme heat or cold.
-
Periodic Voltage Check: Use a voltmeter to confirm healthy voltage (typically ~13–14.4 V when engine running).
