Hello Vicron comunity
I want to protect the life time of my HE batteries at best.
We use them in default mode.
I read that I could unload them at 0%.
But what is the optimum level of discharge to maximize lifetime? 20% / 25%?
thank for your help

dischage level for Lithium HE
Hi @LE BEL
Depending on the use of the batteries (are they mostly fully charged, or cyclic use, etc)
the most life-extending is to not charge to 100%, the batteries are on default not charged to the max, but you'll win most by charging to even less voltage, like 27,5 volt.
keeping discharge levels above 10-20% SOC will also help, but mostly only when they stay at these levels for longer times.
Hi Daniël
Thanks a lot
It's a cyclic use in a boat.
For the discharge level, Is this true for all lithium batteries or specifically for Lithium HE?
Best regards
I suggest you have a thorough read through these pages:
Those articles are about LiFePO4 batteries, a different chemistry then the HE batteries, and not applicable.
