Victron Energy Batteries

In the world of batteries, there are many products and, above all, alternatives that often offer more amp hours for less money. However, the cheaper solution is not always the best in practice. Victron Energy has established itself as a pioneer in the industry and offers solutions that are also convincing in demanding environments. There are two different series of lithium batteries in the Victron Energy product range: Smart Lithium and SuperPack. The SuperPack variants offer an "all in one" solution. These are "exchange batteries", which means that they can be directly exchanged for lead batteries (gel/AGM). The battery management system (BMS) is integrated and several batteries can be connected in parallel.

The SMART Lithium series have a 2-part BMS, cell balancing and the entire sensor system is installed in the battery. The protective circuitry takes place outside the battery with different BMS systems depending on the application. This battery performs much better and is not limited in performance by the BMS. The battery is suitable for the construction of small and large battery banks in 12/24/48V. To ensure optimum charging in such systems, these powerful batteries are often combined with a Victron MPPT solar charge controller or a Victron DC-DC charge booster.

In the following article, we explain the advantages of Victron batteries with LifePO4 and BMS in practical use.

Whether in the solar industry or in leisure companions such as motorhomes and boats, Victron Energy's LiFePO4 batteries have proven to be the perfect choice. They offer numerous advantages compared to conventional lead-acid batteries.

1. High energy density: LiFePO4 batteries have a higher energy density than lead-acid batteries, which means they can store more energy per unit weight. This allows them to be more compact and lighter with the same capacity.
2. Longer service life: LiFePO4 batteries generally have a longer service life than lead-acid batteries. They can withstand a significantly higher number of charge and discharge cycles before their performance decreases. This makes them a cost-effective long-term solution.
3. Deep discharge protection: LiFePO4 batteries can react more safely to a deep discharge than lead-acid batteries. Deep discharge can significantly shorten the life of a battery, but LiFePO4 batteries are better protected against this effect.
4. Low self-discharge: LiFePO4 batteries have a lower self-discharge rate than lead-acid batteries. This means that they can hold their charge longer when not in use. This is particularly useful for applications such as use in motorhomes or boats where the battery may be left unused for long periods of time.

Victron Energy has developed a diverse range of battery models with different capacities and voltages. In order to meet the needs of different applications, the true strength of the various Victron series is demonstrated by a modular design system. A perfect symbiosis of energy efficiency and advanced technology.
