Using the LFP cells and LP batteries in the sea/lake ships and boats

Many boats’ owners have installed the LiFePO4 cells (or 12V LP batteries) into their boats.  There are several possible applications for the lithium iron cells:

1) Boats with electric engines
The LFP cells/LP batteries are used to replace conventional lead-acid (SLA) batteries. Advantages: the lithium solution is lighter, provides higher capacity and discharge currents. The LFP cells/LP batteries allow for faster charging and keep the performance even at low temperatures (Nordic Sea).

2) Boats with electric equipments on board
The LFP cells/LP batteries provide the power for the on-board equipment during on-sea trips. They are used to replace the lead acid battery bank. The LFP cells/LP batteries are lighter, give higher capacity and last longer.

3) Boats with solar charging (solar panels)
The LFP cells/LP batteries replace the “solar charge lead-acid batteries”.  They work fine with many solar charge controllers.  Unlike lead-acid (SLA) batteries, the LFP/LP solution allows for faster charging (more solar panels can be used). The battery bank can have  significantly higher capacity while keeping the original weight.

Conclusion: The LFP cells/LP batteries are a universal solution to replace the lead-acid (SLA) batteries. With the LFP cells/LP batteries you will ge a longer time on the sea!
