Hello all.
I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy lithium, as my Hoppecke FLAs have died after just 8 years.
I say died, but they still function. They just lose voltage very rapidly.
I was thinking of leaving the FLAs where they are and keeping them trickle charged "just in case".
It's a 48v system.
Has anybody here done this?
PS: It's a Quattro 48/8000
When you say leave in place do you mean still connected to the system?
The charge profiles for Lithium (im guessing you're going for LiFePO4) are quite different to FLA. I don't think it's possible (or at the very least not recommend that you connect both at the same time ie in parallel, without further devices/configuration to protect both batteries).
I've not got any experience with this just sharing what I've seen on other posts.
