How high of a C discharge rate should a healthy, well-balanced lifepo4 cell pack be able to support and still produce its rated ah capacity?
We have a 4s 200ah pack that produced 198ah with a constant .55c load (110a for 108 min). Is 198ah at .55c good, bad or indifferent? The pack was top-balanced prior to the test. Delta was approx. 200mv at low-voltage cut-off (2.700v). We frequently do high c discharges---should we bottom balance instead?
