Precautions for 12.8V LiFePO4 Battery sleep activation

1) When activating a dormant battery, avoid using non-original chargers to avoid battery damage.

2) When activating the battery, do not rush to turn it on. You should charge it for a period of time to ensure that the battery voltage returns to normal.

3) If the battery appears abnormal during the activation process, such as heating, smoking, etc., stop charging immediately and send it to a professional maintenance point for inspection.

4) When activating the battery, you should follow the battery instruction manual to ensure battery safety.

5) Lithium batteries that have not been used for a long time should be charged regularly to extend battery life.

The above is an introduction to how to activate lithium battery hibernation. Battery hibernation is a self-protection mechanism. When the battery voltage is lower than a certain threshold, the battery will enter the hibernation state. Activating dormant lithium batteries requires appropriate methods, such as using the original charger, a charger with a slightly higher voltage than normal, direct power charging, etc. During the activation process, attention should be paid to the choice of charger, charging time, and battery safety. If the battery cannot be activated, it is recommended to send it to a professional repair center for inspection and repair. In addition, regular charging and discharging of lithium batteries can extend the service life of the battery.

RFQ

1.What is the difference between 12.8V LiFePO4 battery and 12V lead-acid battery? Answer see below:

2. Reasons for 12.8V LiFePO4 Battery dormancy

1) Over-discharge: When the voltage of the lithium battery is lower than the minimum threshold voltage set by the protection board, the battery will automatically cut off the power output and enter a sleep state.

2) If the lithium battery is not used for a long time, the battery voltage will gradually decrease due to self-discharge. When the voltage is lower than the minimum threshold voltage set by the protection board, the battery will enter a dormant state.

3) Abnormal charging: During the charging process, if the battery has abnormalities, such as overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, etc., it may cause the battery to enter a dormant state.

3. How to activate 12.8V LiFePO4 Battery hibernation

1) Use the original charger to charge: For damaged lithium batteries, first try to use the original charger to charge. Since the voltage cannot be detected when the battery is in hibernation, it needs to be charged for a period of time to see if the battery regains activity.

2) Use a charger with a voltage slightly higher than the normal voltage: If the battery cannot be activated using the original charger, you can try using a charger with a voltage slightly higher than the normal mobile phone charging voltage for strong activation.

3) Use direct power supply for charging: When the phone is out of power and cannot be turned on, you can try to use direct power supply for charging instead of using a computer socket or mobile power supply. This method may charge slower, but can sometimes successfully activate a dormant battery

4) Low-voltage charger charging: Use a low-voltage charger to charge the battery, or you can also try to activate the battery. This method may require charging for 30 minutes to see if the battery comes back to life

5) Parallel charging: If the battery cannot be charged, you can try to find a set of electric vehicle lithium batteries of the same model as the original battery, and connect them in parallel with this set of unchargeable batteries, so that the good batteries can discharge to the unchargeable batteries. After several cycles of parallel charging, there is a certain chance that the battery can be reactivated.

6) Fast charging: For batteries with serious power loss, you can try to use a fast charger to charge. Fast chargers can provide larger currents to help activate the battery

7) Professional maintenance: If none of the above methods can activate the battery, it is recommended to send the battery to a professional maintenance point for inspection and repair.

4. The following is a comparison table between lithium iron phosphate batteries and lithium-ion batteries:

Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries have a variety of advantages and disadvantages that make them suitable for some applications but less than ideal for others. Here are the main advantages and disadvantages of lithium iron phosphate batteries:

advantage:

Safety: LiFePO4 batteries are known for their safety. They are less prone to thermal runaway, overheating, and the risk of fire or explosion than some other lithium-ion battery chemistries. This is due to the stable and strong crystal structure of LiFePO4.

Long cycle life: LiFePO4 batteries have a long cycle life and are able to withstand thousands of charge and discharge cycles without significant capacity loss when using lithium iron phosphate batteries compared to lithium-ion batteries. This makes them highly durable and cost-effective in the long run.

Stability: LiFePO4 batteries maintain a relatively stable voltage throughout most of their discharge cycles. This feature ensures stable power output, which is critical for applications requiring a stable power supply.

Wide Temperature Range: LiFePO4 batteries can operate effectively in a wide range of temperatures, from extremely cold to high temperatures. This versatility makes them suitable for use in a variety of environmental conditions.

Fast charging: LiFePO4 batteries can accept high charging and discharging currents, allowing for fast charging and discharging. This feature is very beneficial in applications that require fast power supply.

Environmentally Friendly: LiFePO4 chemistry is considered environmentally friendly as it does not contain toxic heavy metals like cobalt or nickel. It is a more environmentally friendly option than some other lithium-ion chemistries.

Low self-discharge: Compared to some other battery types, lithium iron phosphate batteries have a lower self-discharge rate than lithium-ion batteries, which means they can retain a charge longer when not in use.

shortcoming:

Higher Cost: LiFePO4 batteries can have a higher upfront cost compared to some other lithium-ion batteries due to the cost of raw materials and manufacturing processes. However, their long cycle life can offset the initial cost in some applications.

Lower energy density: LiFePO4 batteries generally have a slightly lower energy density than some other lithium-ion battery chemistries. This means they store less energy per unit weight, which may limit their use in applications where space and weight constraints are critical.

Larger and heavier: Due to their lower energy density, LiFePO4 batteries can be larger and heavier for a given energy capacity than batteries with higher energy density. This may affect their suitability for portable applications.

Complex battery management: LiFePO4 batteries may require more complex battery management systems to ensure proper charging and discharging to maximize their lifespan and safety.
