SGT_76 Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Looking at other lifepo4 options since the 38120hp's are getting harder to find at a good price. I'm still learning but dont we need higher "C rates"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT_76 Posted May 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Lol, no opinions on these? I know with the smaller cells like the 38120's being 8ah, them having the higher C-rates (10 & 25) makes them good for us. With these being larger 240ah, wouldn't their C-rates of 1 & 2 still make them a viable option for us? Or am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwking Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 yeah we need C rates of 10 or higher to be useful for car audio demands. these would be better suited for energy storage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hell, I was hoping their charge rate of 240a, and Max discharge rate of 360a, would've still worked even with the reduced C-rating. I'm trying to get a grasp of the whole "C-rating" thing. Obviously with little success lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
