Wow, really? I was staying away from them as I confused them with TimeUSB that was using degraded higher capacity batteries. Glad you mentioned Redodo. They actually say 'grade A' in their advertising vs Power Queen that says 'automotive grade' which should be 'A'.
Not at my house which is where this will be located.
Also, some of the cheapest lifepo4 batteries, once they’ve gained popularity thanks in large part to Will Prowse and his DIY solar forum here, have switched to using pouch cells.
The ones I am looking at are rated for up to a 4S configuration (4 in series).
I see a thermistor on your LiTime. Which one did you buy? Was it advertised to have low temp charge protection? And what is that round black disk on the left top of the pack?
I'm only plan to go to 24V in a 2S1P or a 2S2P configuration. Regarding taking it apart, I should have been more clear. If I end up with a bad battery, or upgrade to newer batteries or technology in the future, these batteries will always be useful, and much more useful as a 12V pack than a 24V. I have many many devices that will run off 12V, but going to 24V for inverter use to reduce wire gauge needed, minimize I2R losses, and when I add a MPPT or PWM charger, higher charging wattage capability as chargers are usually current limited vs wattage. Plus I have other networking equipment and PC's that only take 120VAC.
Yes and no. They are all using the Shopify platform. You’ve probably run across it many times if you started (or continued) non-Amazon online shopping as it picked during COVID. It’s extremely easy for a business to set up and these all look like the default checkout templates.
LoL. I once had my business setup on Shopify and iirc, the add a tip feature either was on by default or was placed in a way that just made you want to push the little lever to turn it on so it wasn’t the only one off. lol. So it might be then being brazen but it might be a mistake.
