Pylontech batteries - user experience?

E30M3 · 2020-07-21 06:32:19

Good morning I am just finalising a quote and order. I have the option of 1 or 2 Pylontech 2.4kw batteries. The 2nd battery adds 700 to the quote so I was wondering if any users with both installed could give me a steer on usability and experience to help me decide which option to go for. There seems to be mixed views…

You can go to 100% discharge on LiFePO4 cells no problem and still have about 2000 cycles. Which even at one full cycle per day is still about 6 years. And after that the battery isn't dead, its SOH is down to about 75% (iirc)
My motto is: you have paid a lot of money for your battery. Now it is time for it to pay you back. Work it hard, it's your slave.

Thanks all. Using the power of confirmation bias, I've chosen to reduce it to 10%
