2.) Lithionics Battery "Retail Customers" Warranty
"Warranty Versus Guarantee"

2. a) Batteries equipped with NeverDie Battery Management System (BMS) When Lithionics Warranty Conditions Can Be Met:
When used correctly, Lithionics Battery warrants your battery to be free from manufacturing defects for a period of 5 years. Also, when used correctly, Lithionics Battery warrants your battery to deliver a minimum of 2,000 cycles at full depth-of-discharge or up to 6,000 cycles. This Warranty requires that either the Bluetooth or round SOC gauge be installed AND the following requirements are met:

• You completely disclose all of the electrical devices (charging and load devices) to us.
• You follow our straight forward best practices which include but are not limited to using the correct gauge of high quality copper or tinned copper marine power cabling, using high quality tinned copper cable ends that are hex crimped (6-way crimp) and sealed with adhesive backed heat shrink tubing.
• You only connect one main power cable to each of the battery/ BMS box terminal studs which will connect to a bus bar where you make all your system connections. Placing multiple cables on a single Lithionics terminal may Void your Warranty.
• You use a knowledgeable or licensed and experienced installer (some cases of self-installation can be covered).
• You select an appropriate environment to install the components (temperature controlled is preferred and free of moisture/ dripping water etc.)
• You provide detailed high quality photos of the Lithionics Battery components installed. These photos need to be from 1,200 to 2,500 pixels wide and show the system as a whole as well as close up photos of the battery system connections and EURO DIN cable connections if applicable.
• You have an appropriate short-circuit main fuse connected inline on the positive battery system cable to the bus bar(s). Consult with us if you are unsure what fuse type/ value to use.
• Additional Conditions that may apply to certain projects.

LITHIONICS BATTERY CHARGING DETAILS

12 Volt Automotive Engine Start Batteries (Excerpt taken from detailed .PDF linked below):

4. Charging Your Battery

4.1 - Supported Chargers:
Lithionics Battery 12V engine start batteries can be charged with either a 12V rated alternator in proper working order or a Lithionics Battery LiFePO4 Charger. Failure to do so will void the battery's warranty. Other chargers are factory approved but you must report that charger to the factory in an email request to Pinnacle Innovations (getlithium.com) at siteinfo@shaw.ca and obtain formal approval.

4.2 - Connecting Your Battery to a Charger:
Step 1.
Verify that the battery output is ON. This can be done by checking that the red pushbutton LED is lit or by checking that battery voltage is present with a multi-meter.

Step 2.
1st: Connect the RED (positive) charger lead to the positive terminal on the battery.
2nd: Connect the BLACK (Negative) charger lead to the negative terminal on the battery.

Step 3.
Plug the charger into a wall outlet and turn on the charger, your battery is now charging!

LITHIONICS BATTERY SOLAR POWER CONTROLLER DETAILS

All 12 Volt Lithionics Battery Lithium ion Batteries need to be charged between 14.4 Volts and 14.6 Volts. Due to variability in Voltage output of Solar Charge Controllers we recommend that you set the Bulk/ Absorb Voltage of Solar Charge Controllers to 14.4 Volts. The Batteries also need to "Float Charge" at 13.4 Volts.
Visit our Alternate/ Off-Grid Energy and Micro Grid page for more information on Solar and Wind Energy...

Not all Solar Controllers have safety features or adjustable voltage settings. Typically, only 3-Stage Solar Controllers can be adjusted to the Voltages listed above or have a "Gel Battery Setting".

Get Lithium and Lithionics Battery have found that some Solar Controller Models by Victron Energy, OutBack and Blue Sky meet our requirements. Get Lithium and Pinnacle Innovations will be happy to bring these in for your application.

Below are just a few examples of Solar Controllers by Blue Sky (see Victron Energy MPPT solar charge controllers on our solar page):

Blue Sky Energy Solar Boost 3024iL & 3024DiL
12 Volt / 24 Volt MPPT charge controller

Patented Maximum Power Point Tracking technology allows Solar Boost 3024iL to increase charge current up to 30% or more compared to conventional charge controllers. Don't waste your money by throwing PV power away!

Solar Boost 3024iL's advanced fully automatic 3-stage charge control system will properly charge flooded lead-acid, AGM and GEL batteries resulting in improved battery performance with less maintenance. The dual 30/40 amp rating will deliver at up to 30 amps in 24 volt systems, or up to 40 amps in 12 volt systems. An automatic or manual equalize function is also provided to periodically condition flooded lead-acid batteries. To further enhance versatility, a user configurable auxiliary output and Blue Sky Energy's advanced IPN network interface are also included.

The user configurable auxiliary output can serve as either a 20 amp load controller, or as a 2 amp auxiliary battery charger. The load control feature can be used to limit excessive battery discharge in unattended remote systems, whereas the auxiliary battery charge feature is ideal for charging a separate battery such as the engine battery in an RV. The auxiliary output can also provide fully adjustable dusk to dawn lighting control.

Blue Sky Energy's advanced Integrated PowerNet, or IPN Network, allows up to 8 IPN capable charge controllers to communicate with each other and operate as a single machine rather than separate charge controllers. The IPN network also allows networked controllers to share an optional battery temperature sensor and remote display. The IPN network does not require a display or other special communication hardware to operate.
