LifePowers have a BMS. But most people power them with a LFP designed
charger to get the power into them much faster than a regular power supply.

You will need a BMS unless the battery has one built in. If it does,
a regular telco rectifier will do the job.

Subject: [AFMUG] LiFePO4 question again
I'm finding hard to pass up just getting a 100ah 48v LiFePO4 rackmount
battery. I have a new fiber system that will need a maximum of 3kw
once it is maxed out over the years. This seems like an easy and
clean battery solution.
Question is how do I power the system from the AC side on a daily
basis and keep the battery charged. The normal rectifier way seems to
be a bit lacking in LiFePO4 support.
I can get a EG4 Chargeverter 48V 100A Battery Charger that looks like
it would do the job. Not sure if this thing is designed to run 24/7
at load or if it is designed for intermittent loads to just charge
batteries.
Thoughts?
