[Emily Wong]

What's the best active balancer for LTO batteries that will be used in the Car Studio system. Need advices!!

That's not a real popular battery chemistry on this site you can try the search engine up on the right corner

The first thing that comes to mind when I hear LTO is "Fire" Good luck and be safe

I don't think LTO is a fire risk .... They are a pretty safe chemistry ..... but, not many LTO users on here that I know of. The extra cost for the LTOs isn't justified in most use cases for a solar system.

I'd go to YouTube for ideas and go from there.

Any battery chemistry can be a risk if not understood and managed properly.

I think I would do more research and development before implementing this system into an occupied space.

Oh! There are some good demonstration on YouTube, I'd better check and see how those good practices preform. Still need more research and knowledge to build up my LTO battery structure.

LTO battery fire

My home build LTO battery had a fire last night. We heard a large pop and came out to find a small arc fire in one of the cells. One of the cells had popped completly apart. The wiring was arcing and causing a small flame. We were running five 10 amp active balancers on five 22S banks...

What is the safety profile of LTO compared to LFP?

Not sure. What's the safety profile of LFP?
