Customers' Feedback for RV Lithium Battery
For RVs, the biggest feature is limited space. Compared to the lead acid batteries that I used three years ago, lifepo4 batteries are smaller in size and lighter with higher energy density, they are perfect for RV power backup applications. And what’s more, I can discharge the lifepo4 at 90% DOD, while we can only discharge the lead acid batteries at 50%. If some of my friends want me to recommend RV batteries between lifepo4 and lead acid, I would choose lifepo4 for their RV.
They have 10-year warranty for the lifepo4 RV batteries, and the lifepo4 batteries have over 6000 cycle life, which means we do not need to change the RV battery frequently, this helps me to reduce the cost of operation and maintenance in the long run. And for the RV, we know, safety is a big issue, the lifepo4 lithium batteries are environmentally friendly and do not contain any hazardous materials, we are very confident in using lifepo4 as our RV batteries.

“LiFePO4” stands for Lithium Iron Phosphate. The cathode material is lithium iron phosphate, compared to other types of lithium-ion batteries, LifePO4 batteries have higher energy density, safer,more stable, and longer lifespan.
Generally, you need a special charger to charge the lifepo4 batteries. And we give a comprehensive explanation to you here:
- Voltage Requirements
As lifepo4 batteries have a different voltage profile compared to lead acid batteries. The nominal voltage of a lifepo4 battery cell is 3.2V, for a 12.8V lifepo4 battery, the full-charge voltage is 14.6V, but for a 12.8V lead acid battery, the full-charge voltage for it is around 13.2V to 13.8V. So if you use a lead acid battery charger to charge the lifepo4 battery, it may lead to under-charging of the battery, and this could potentially damage the lifepo4 battery;
- Safety Consideration
A lifepo4 battery charger is always designed to equip with safety features, it will protect the lifepo4 battery against overcharging, over current, over temperature, etc. And these conditions may lead to the lifepo4 battery catching fire or exploding. The right lifepo4 battery charger have the function to monitor the lifepo4 batteries’ temperature, current status to maintain the battery in safe conditions.
Most of RV converters are suitable for lead acid batteries, which is different from the lifepo4 batteries. If you change your RV lead acid batteries to LifePo4 batteries, and you consider whether to change the RV converter, pay attention to the issues below to use the lifepo4 in an optimal way:
- Voltage Concern
Many RV converters are designed for lead acid batteries, and the nominal voltage of them is around 13.2V to 13.8V, while the nominal voltage of the lifepo4 batteries is around 14.4V to 14.6V. If your current converter can not provide the correct voltage for the lifepo4 battery charging, it may damage the lifepo4 batteries.
- Battery Management System(BMS)
Lifepo4 batteries are usually equipped with smart battery management system, the BMS will monitor the status of the lifepo4 batteries, such as charging rate, voltage, current, temperature, and so on to ensure safe and efficient operation. The converters for the lead acid battery usually have no support for communication with the BMS, which may lead to sub-optimal charging issues of the lifepo4 batteries. In this way, you can consider to change the RV converter.
- Charging Speed Concern
Usually, the RV converters for the lead acid batteries have lower charging speed, while the lifepo4 batteries can accept a higher charging rate than lead acid batteries. A converter designed for lifepo4 batteries can provide more efficient and faster charging rate, which can charge the lifepo4 batteries in a short time. So you can check the issue as well.
That’s all issues provided for your reference when considering RV converters for lifepo4 batteries, hope this can help you.
RV lithium batteries such as LifePo4 batteries, have a relatively low risk of fire hazard compared to some other batteries. When lithium RV batteries are properly installed, maintained, and used within their specified parameters, you can minimize the fire hazard to largest rate. Always keep in mind to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and guidance to ensure the safe operation of the lithium RV batteries.
You can charge the lifepo4 batteries in the RV with three methods.
1.Solar System Charging
You can add a off grid or hybrid solar system in your RV, and connect the lifepo4 batteries to the solar system to store the power generated from the solar panels.
2.DC to DC charger
You can use the stand alone DC to DC charger to charge the lifepo4 batteries. The DC to DC charger can convert the vehicle’s electrical system voltage to the appropriate charging voltage for the lifepo4 batteries and can help to protect the lifepo4 batteries from over-charging.
3.Shore Power Charging
Modern RVs may have a converter that can convert the AC power from the shore power source to appropriate DC voltage, if they can be adjusted and compatible with lifepo4 batteries, then you can use it to charge the lifepo4 batteries.
Proper maintenance of RV lifepo4 batteries is important to ensure longevity and optimal performance.
- Regular Charging. Charge the lifepo4 batteries regularly. And we recommend you to keep the lifepo4 discharged to around 50% and 60% although the lifepo4 batteries can discharge up to 90%;
- Proper Storage. Keep the lifepo4 batteries in a cool and dry place in your RV, Check the voltage of the batteries periodically during storage to prevent discharge damage;
- Keep Terminals Clean. Use a battery terminal cleaner and water to clean the terminals to prevent them from corrosion.
- Monitor the Performance. Some advanced RV electrical systems have battery monitors, you can monitor the battery parameters such as SOC, voltage, current, temperature, etc. to understand better about the health of the lifepo4 batteries.
