lifepo4 battery howto

[RCB7]

Hello,

I‘m wonderung, of a booster for Lifepo4 could solve that problem? Connected between generator and Lifepo4 starter battery.

the voltage sag when starting turned out to be my own problem: a bolt on the live terminal was not tight and during starting the metal there would get really hot and resistance rose causing a voltage sag.

Since discovering this and securing it properly have not had an issue. Car can sit without trickle charger for weeks and capacity of battery is still 75% and it starts fast and reliably now.

What was the weight saving?

Hi,
does that mean you work without a booster? I thought of a booster so that I didn't have to deactivate the charge control electronics.

I disconnect the current sensor and get a dashboard notice to check stop/start which I click to dismiss. Thats it.
