Picking the wrong charger can shorten your LiFePO4 battery's lifespan. Here's how to find the perfect match for your 12V/24V/36V/48V system.

Step 1: Match Voltage Precisely

     12V LiFePO4 Battery Charger Requirement:

    Output: 14.2-14.6V (3.65V/cell)

    Never use lead-acid chargers – they overcharge to 15V+!

    24V System: Seek 28.8-29.2V output

    36V Setup: Requires 43.8-44.4V charger

    48V LiFePO4 Charger: 54-55V output recommended

Step 2: Calculate Charging Speed

    Divide battery capacity (Ah) by charger current (A) to estimate hours:

    Example: 100Ah 12V battery + 10A charger = 10 hours

    Fast Charging Alert: Avoid exceeding 0.5C rate (e.g., 50A max for 100Ah battery)

Step 3: Demand Smart Features

    Look for:

    ✅ Automatic voltage detection

    ✅ Temperature compensation (adjusts voltage in hot/cold environments)

    ✅ LED status indicators (like our Smart Charger Series)

Step 4: Verify Connector Compatibility

    Common plug types:

    Anderson SB50 (high-current 48V systems)

    XT60 (24V/36V solar setups)

    Alligator clips (temporary 12V use)
