Well, not mine, but those of op Main Sail, a frequent poster over at Cruisers Forum in LFP and also at the Marinehowto. com site.
Very glad to hear he's on the mend!
Essentially 400ah of Winston prismatics, still pulling full capacity after 13 years and more than 2300+ cycles. Essentially low CV's, minimal absorb, a conservative LVD, and a change or two of bms. Man, time flies. See his posting about the 13th birthday on the Cruiser forum.
All these years he has documented his working with LFP, and I've been following him since about 2010 watching his progress and testing, and sharing all these years. Well done!
The point is, that with proper care, one *can* avoid the seemingly inevitable 10-year chemical aging. Even with cells from waaay back then when all we had to play with were Winstons, Calbs, GBS, and maybe a Sinopoly or two.
Most importantly, he hung in there with all of us, when many just ditched the DIY market as fast as they could. Thanks, Main Sail !
