LiFePO4 batteries perform well in various conditions, but extreme temperatures can affect their efficiency and lifespan.
In Hot Weather:
- Avoid direct sunlight and ensure proper ventilation.
- Keep operating temps below 45°C (113°F).
- Consider cooling systems for high-load applications.
In Cold Weather:
- Charging below 0°C (32°F) can cause lithium plating—use a battery heater if necessary.
- Discharge performance may drop, so account for reduced capacity.
- Store batteries in insulated enclosures in freezing conditions.
Proper temperature management ensures optimal performance year-round.
