WEIZE 12V 100Ah 1280Wh Lithium Battery. Only 229.99!
WEIZE 12V 100Ah 1280Wh Lithium Battery. Only 229.99!
I picked this WEIZE battery to replace an AGM 12volt 100 amp-hour battery I have owned for some years which is no longer holding a full charge. I already own a WEIZE mini, and it is working very well, so let’s try another one.
This battery has a 10-year warranty - which is very good. This battery also has low temp protection, so that your battery remains dependable even in harsh conditions. The company says you can put 10 batteries in parallel. Most batteries can only be connected up to 4 batteries together.
The manufacturer claims that these Weize 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Batteries are designed to endure more than 2,000 cycles at 100% discharge or an impressive 8,000 cycles at 50% depth of discharge. By comparison, most traditional lead-acid batteries typically last only around two years (or about 500 cycles) at 50% discharge. Not only are these LiFePO4 batteries attractively priced, but they are also expected to last at least 5 times longer than a lead-acid one, offering significant cost savings in the long run.
As the video shows, this battery passed every test I put to it. I am looking forward to many years of service from this battery. If you have a similar need, please click on the link below.

Then the cables from the charge controller to the battery. #2<<Do those need to be a certain gauge though, coming from charge controller to battery? I do have a little 300 watt pure sine wave inverter with alligator clips I could use with it, but I wanted to know the highest watt one you could use with one of those. I know the DOD is only 50% on those batteries and I guess you'd keep track of that with a battery checker, the correct name escapes me ATM?

    • @shoestringprep
      @shoestringprep 18 днів тому

      You have several questions here. Let's try to answer them for you. 1) You can use any size inverter with a 35AH battery, but I would recommend not using anything larger than your 300-watt inverter. Anything larger will just draw the power out faster. 2) Most solar panels come with their own wires. However, the last time I had to buy wires, I got some 10AWG and they have been working fine. You may use the same size cables on both sides of the charge controller. 3) As you know, it's best to use only 50% of the lead-acid battery's capacity before recharging. However, with your inverter, the manufacturer says it is 300 watts. And you may accept that as its upper limit. If you try to pull more than 300 watts, the inverter will just shut down (but I don't think it's damaged by the experience). Good luck with your solar power journey. Thank you for your comment.

    Is there a reason why you connected two batteries “nooby way“? And I think that is the reason why your battery voltage drops to 11.1v. When you use two batteries set-up you wanna connect the positive wire on one battery and the negative wire on the other battery.

      I was connecting the batteries in parallel. Thank you for your comment.

    So it is essential to test and charge even a new battery before installing in your vehicle .

      I also test and charge a battery before I use it. Thanks for your comment.

    I want to charge 12V old car battery and use it for WIFI surveillance camera that uses 12V. Commercial manufactured solar or battery powered cameras can't do 24/7 they only wake up with PIR sensor. Camera uses up to 8W of energy, to run 24/7 it will be about 192Wh /24h. From 12V battery it would be about 192/12=16Hh, Old battery is rated at 45Ah, so I assume that it can hold a third of its rated power, and it will get some light during the day directly from solar panels, so from the battery it will have to run only for max 16 hours when there is no sun. So in the winter short cloudy days I might need some 100W to 200W so it reliably can top off while sun is available. There are plenty of cheap used panels available locally, panels in 100 to 200W range are almost for free. But most of them have higher rated working voltages, 40V or more, up to 100V. I wonder what will happen if I connect such panel (say 50V working voltage, and use only one 12V battery) to this little inverter that is rated for panels up to 25V when using 12V battery, or 50V with 24v battery. Will it fry controller, will it fry battery, or full potential of solar panel will not be used, and extra Voltage will go to waist, and I will get only half of what solar panel would be able to deliver?

    You don't have to disconnect it at night. It won't drain the battery lol.
