I am trying to figue out how one manufacturer sells a battery with a 0.5C and another a 1C, but they are both 5 kwh and both use BYD cells?
From the little knowledge I have acquired about lithium batteries, the only way I can see that you could achieve a higher C rating is if you have a cooling system in place.
The one has increased the warranty to 10 years and the other has reduced the cycles to 3000 but indicates a 15 year life design.
How do you cut through all the bullshit and get the apples to compare apples with apples or 5 kwh with 5 kwh?
Deep cycle batteries had thicker platers and bases, what makes a lithium battery a good battery, what a the key point to identify when selecting a good quality lithium battery?
If I have ever had to deal with an industry that tries to baffle customers with bullshit, this solar industry certainly takes the cake with the cherry on top.
What do we know about lithium batteries, the harder they work the lower the cycle life. Can we agree that if a battery is advertised at 1C with 3000 cycles, then a 0.5 C battery advertised at 0.5C at 6000 cycles, would also be capable of 1C rating if advertised at a max of 100 amps (for a 100 amp hour battery) if we reduce the cycles to 3000 cycles?
