So my new Sunsynk CATL LFP batteries advertise a '100% depth of discharge'.
What would you say is a sensible minimum charge level actually to specify in my inverter? I have 15% at present.
I don't want to unnecessarily shorten the life of my batteries, but I also don't want to waste capacity I could sensibly be using,
I'm new to home batteries, but I know that on my electric cars, the manufacturers arrange that 0% or 100% (as displayed to the user) have sensible margins to protect the batteries, and it's normally impossible either to fully charge or fully discharge them. What should I assume is the usable capacity of my 5.1kWh batteries, do you think?
many thanks,
Quentin
