HI Allan and all,
I”m with Dave when it comes to designing and cobbling together a fix for an
incredibly expensive piece of equipment. Sure I can get it to work, but who’s
fault is it when it doesn’t?
And it does bring up the interesting point about where are the temp sensors
located? Would
Hello, Jay & All~
Anytime the battery mfr. has a solution that is pre-baked into their
product--that's +1 for avoiding later warranty disputes, etc. I'm glad to
learn that LifeBlue is doing a "divert the charge DC method" for cold
lithiums, which seems quite logical to me.

I am trying out an insulated box and small heater. It doesn't get very cold
in West Coast scotland so 120W seems useful. Also automatic vents used on
greenhouses, to open up the sealed box.

The risk may be worth it if the battery is inexpensive.
I have a client who has a neighbor who had to leave his home in Canada
for a funeral. Things snowballed and the road washed out. He could not get
home for a week and lost his well over 10K LFP battery. The battery logged

Jay,
I faced this issue recently with a Blue Ion system. Blue Planet tech
support sent me a clear description of the solution worked out by a Utah
installer, Gardner Energy in West Haven, that was brilliant. It used an
18W and a 24W reptile terrarium heater placed between layers of
batteries
Jay,
I would think this might be pretty riskyI think of the
difficulty in being sure all the cells were uniformly warmed. I guess
if they were in an enclosure and the ambient in there was held at some
determined temp for ? (many) hours then one could assume? all the cells

Hi Jay,
Within the next couple of weeks LiFeBlue Battery will be shipping the new Low
temperature models. They have a heater built in and if the cells are below
32°F, charge current is diverted to heat the cells above freezing before
transferring full charge current. All handled by the internal
Try heated seed mats. They seem to work pretty well if you have an
available power source nearby.

HI All,
I”m wondering if anyone has suggestions about how to charge a Lithium battery
in RV or in this case Polarius in sub zero temps.
Are there batteries that have heaters built in, or is it still a custom design
issue to build a heating system?
( insulation and heaters)
Thanks,
jay
