[RE-wrenches] Lithium battery systems

2016-10-14 Thread Starlight Solar Power Systems
Hi Chris,

I am in our 3rd year of designing and selling Lithium Iron Manganese Phosphate 
(LFMP) battery systems for our mobile, boat and off grid customers. There is no 
mystery to using Lithium Iron type batteries with most modern 
inverter/chargers, although some manufacturers disagree. Our LFMP batteries 
work with any charger that has programmable absorb and float voltage and has 
adjustable absorb timers down to 5 minutes. Temperature compensation is not 
used. At my Montana home, I have a the Outback GS8048 for powering my shop 
building, home office and to backup loads in the house.

I have looked at many other batteries being marketed but none of the EMS 
systems or designs have the features and protection that I deem necessary. Too 
much to write about here but buyer do your research. A customer will not be 
happy if their battery often shuts down.

will be suitable for an Outback Radian based system. Let me know what is out 
there please.

Check with Iron Edison in Denver about their LiFePo batteries. The BMS is
built in. They support Radian.
