Relion 12.8V 100Ah HP LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Lithium Battery
Description
The RB100-HP is a lithium iron phosphate battery, built for starting and cycling marine and RV applications. The RB100-HP has increased peak amps for starting motors, electric start generators, and other high-amp-draw devices – plus, it doubles as a house battery, powering peripherals, accessories, and more. The RB100-HP was the first lithium battery to be evaluated and approved for use with select Mercury Marine® outboard engines.
Features
The RB100-HP now includes six battery terminals versus the two on standard batteries, offering users more flexibility when connecting electronics to the battery. The battery includes an IP67 ingress protection rating, which completely repels dust and resists water ingress for up to 30 minutes submerged at 1 meter. Other improvements include an atmospheric vent added to the top of the case that equalizes pressure while preventing contaminants from entering the battery; a glue channel to ensure IP67 seal; screw latched closure to ensure seal longevity, and tied a rope with handle guides that replace ultrasonically welded straps to improve durability.
The RB100-HP is the first lithium battery to be evaluated and approved for use with select Mercury Marine® outboard engines.
Temperature Tolerant: Lithium batteries can handle a wide variety of conditions and are even 2.5x more efficient at low temperatures than lead-acid while being able to safely operate up to 149°F (65°C).
Eco-Friendly & Safe: RELiON lithium batteries are the ultimate clean energy. No gassing, no fumes, and no pollution. Enjoy reliable power, while protecting the environment, using these non-hazardous batteries.
Lightweight; RELiON lithium batteries provide more power than lead-acid batteries and are typically half the weight. Boosting both performance and agility on the water.
Constant Power: Full power is available throughout discharge. Voltage does not drop like lead-acid.
Maintenance Free: Plug, play, and charge. No watering, no corrosion
Long Life: RELiON lithium batteries provide up to 10 times longer life than lead-acid batteries, and they still provide 80% of the rated capacity after 3,500 cycles.
More Usable Capacity: Lead-acid batteries are typically sized up to two times your energy needs to account for extended periods without sun and less usable energy with higher rates of discharge. Plus, you are typically cautioned to limit your use to 50% of the rated capacity, as using more can significantly reduce performance. Lithium batteries provide 100% of their rated capacity, regardless of the rate of discharge. And, you can use it all and still get a substantially longer cycle life.
Partial State of Charge Tolerant: Partial state of charge, known as PSOC, which is a killer of lead-acid batteries, does not affect the performance or battery life of a lithium battery. Sometimes batteries don’t get fully charged, or they regularly operate in a partial state of charge. Either way, you can count on RELiON lithium batteries to live a long and productive life.
