I am loking for ones which are located or are shipping to Europe, if there are some problems or warranty reasons - also there is a huge Tax for Import Batteries, around 5%+19%
There is a new generation of Lithiumax Race7+ and Restart7 coming in april/May
it has 2,5kg - BMS and delcared as 45/48Ah EqPb / 2 Years Warranty
- With import tax and shipping from Australia it would cost ca. 550Euros, but If I happen to have Warranty problem I can ship it bach to Australia, which is a pain in the assss.
The LB20xx is declared as 35-50Ah (
Pb-eq) / 5 Years Warranty and costs 1200Euros and amazing support I heard.
+ it has security features as theft protection, which I find useful for my Project C
I can not decide, I also contacted Lithiumax in germany which said, there are some problems with startstop and regenerating the OPF, programming with the Race7+ and should take the bigger Restart9.
There is a possible problem if I turn of the car and if it has wrong programming it could drain the Battery while OPF Regeneration would be running. Ofc I want to use it as a daily battery for 10-20 Miles (20-30km) per day.
I would want to know how much Amps does the OPF regeneration use. I do not know if it is regeneration or cooling down of the CAT, but 3-4 times a year if I turn off my car, the Fans are still spinning for 2-3 minutes and something is hapening.
On my diesel it hapens 1-2 times (DPF Euro6d Temp) a Year and can take up to 5-10 minutes.
Are there other options which are
under 3kg and have 45+ EqPb Rating?
PS: One other guy from a Store said, If the car has OPF, I should take the stronger LB28xx which has 25% more Capacity than the 20xx and weights only 0,3kg more 50-65Ah (
Pb-eq)
