Wondering if anyone has experience of these batteries. They're way cheaper than good quality LiFePO4 ones and would save a lot of space. One 125Ah would take up less that half the space of two standard AGMs, based on a 50% DoD. Space saving is important and my main use will be lighting, fridge and diesel heater for long periods off grid, mainly N Europe. They cost €410 for 125Ah one.
What do people think?
Here is Victron blurb:
Exceptional 100% depth of discharge (DoD) performanceTests have shown that the Super Cycle battery does withstand at least three hundred 100% DoD cycles. The tests consist of a daily discharge to 10,8V with I = 0,2C₂₀, followed by approximately two hours rest in discharged condition, and then a recharge with I = 0,2C₂₀. The two hours rest period in discharged condition will damage most batteries within 100 cycles, but not the Super Cycle battery. We recommend the Super Cycle battery for applications where an occasional discharge to 100% DoD, or frequent discharge to 60-80% DoD is expected.
