Technical Specifications Decoded

The Big Three: Capacity, Voltage, and Chemistry

Think of these as the battery''s DNA:

Parameter	Residential Use	Industrial Use
Capacity (Ah)	100-200Ah	500-2000Ah
Voltage	12V	48V-96V

Cycle Life: The Battery''s Expiry Date

New UL 1973 standards require:

• Minimum 3,000 cycles @ 80% DoD for solar applications
• 10-year warranty becoming industry norm

Application-Specific Selection

Like choosing tires - highway vs. off-road matters:

• Solar Storage: Deep-cycle + high DoD tolerance
• EV Charging Stations: Fast charge/discharge capability

Real-World Case Study

A textile factory reduced energy costs 23% by:

1. Switching to lithium ferro-phosphate (LFP) batteries
2. Implementing AI-powered load management

FAQ: Quick Answers to Common Queries

Can I mix old and new batteries?

Not recommended - it''s like pairing a racehorse with a donkey. Mismatched batteries reduce overall efficiency by up to 40%.

How often should I check battery water levels?

Every 45 days for flooded lead-acid types. Sealed batteries? They''re the "install and forget" option.

Lithium vs. Lead-Acid: Which wins?

Lithium batteries have 3x longer lifespan but cost 2.5x more upfront. Do the math on your usage patterns first.
