Hey all, so I got lucky and scored quite a few Power Sonic PSL-12450E LiFePO4 lithium batteries along with a Ametek Powervar ABCE150-11M2 power inverter/data link 🤤 But after reviewing data sheet I see the discharge rate is maxed @ 25amps, not nearly enough for what I want to use them for. I bought them with the intentions of using them as my trunk battery bank for car audio (I tinker in all “electronic” fields, currently self teaching Class D amp repair:) so I want to remove/bypass the current limiter to max out the discharge rate, longevity is not what I am after here, do not care if it’s reduced battery life from 10+ years to 1+ year, but ya know a few years out of them would be cool 😅 so my goal is to charge them fully (currently charging each to max using my lab PS @ 14.6v/3a) They do have a battery capacity gauge that displays at push of a button, which I’d like to keep if possible, but main goal is to remove current discharge limiter and run 3-5 in parallel as my trunk battery bank, and of course safety is key, which I’m sure won’t be a problem with what I want to do, my stock alt (14.4v110a) with no upgrades is why I need such a large battery bank, I want to run about 3.5kW RMS.
Any help/advice/insight, etc would be GREATLY appreciated, my budget dictates cheap as possible and this is a huge score for me, I think I have whatever needed to convert these (solder station, PC, etc) and by chance can this be programmed to remove limiter with the inverter, which has the datalink ports the batteries do and usb to connect to Pc, just an idea but don’t know if it’s possible. Thx all, best group on the net 😎
