injury. This User Manual explains how to connect and safely

operate your Deep Cycle Lithium battery. As with all batteries,

please consider the mechanical and environmental conditions

the battery will be operated in to maximise performance and

achieve long battery life. If you are in any doubt with how to

operate your battery contact the retailer where you purchased

your battery.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Your Lithium Deep Cycle Battery contains lithium iron

phosphate LiFePO4 cells. While LiFePO4 cells are the safest

Li-Ion chemistry, the stored chemical energy represents a risk

of re, burns or explosion if misused.

• Do not use or store the battery near high temperatures,

sparks or ames.

• Do not short-circuit the battery. For example, do not

connect metal objects directly to the battery positive or

negative.

• Do not charge batteries in an inverted position.

• Do not damage the battery by dropping, knocking.

throwing, trampling, etc.

• Do not pierce the battery or drill into the enclosure.

• Do not apply undue force to the terminals or bend them.

• Avoid applying heat to the terminals through processes

such as soldering.

• Do not disassemble or ret.

• Do not expose the battery case and lid to organic solvents

or adhesives.

• In case of any battery abnormality, such as unusual odour

or deformation, stop using the battery immediately and

isolate it.

• Keep children and pets away from batteries.

• Ensure the battery is safely secured before travel.

RECYCLING

Your lithium battery is recyclable at

permitted treatment facilities. Discharge

the battery before recycling (disposal).

WHAT IS LiFePO4?

Lithium Iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries are a type of

lithium ion (Li-Ion) rechargeable battery in which lithium ions

move from the negative electrode (anode) to the positive

electrode (cathode) during discharge and back again when

being charged. LiFePO4 batteries provide reliable power, are

environmental friendly containing no toxic substances, fast

charging and long lasting in a compact, lightweight package.

BATTERY CARE

To ensure a long and safe life from your battery, please ensure

you consider the following:

• Store where it’s dry, clean, shaded and well-ventilated at a

temperature between 0°C to 40°C when charging.

• During storage store at approx 50% State of Charge (SOC).

• Charge every 6 months if in an unused situation.

• Keep the top of the battery and its terminals clean.

• Protect the battery from being dropped, turning over and

serious stacking during loading.

• Can be mounted on it’s side.

The lifespan of a deep cycle battery will vary considerably with

how it is used, how it is maintained and charged, temperature,

and other factors. With good care, your Lithium battery should

have a long lifespan.

INSTALLATION

Your Lithium LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Battery is designed for

single, series or parallel use. Only connect batteries of the

same type, model, capacity, and age.

This battery is not designed for, nor should it be tted into an

engine bay or other area subject to high heat.

To install your battery:

• Before making any electrical connections to or from your

battery, secure the battery in place. Fasten tightly and make

provisions for shock absorption if exposure to shock or

vibration is likely.

• Once secured in place, unscrew the metal nut from the

terminals with a spanner or adjustable wrench, red (+)

positive, and black (-) negative. Be careful not to short-

circuit the battery with any metal objects across the

terminals.

• Ensure the charging source

cables have M8 ring terminals

suitable size to match the

battery M8 terminals.

• NOTE: Do not place anything

such as a washer between the

battery terminal and the cables.

• Connect the charging and load

cables to the battery, red (+)

positive, and black (-) negative. Fastening the nut for each

tightly without excessive torque or over-tightening.

• It is good practice to ensure that the connections are re-

torqued and the batteries are cleaned periodically.

CYCLES VS LIFE

The lifespan of a Lithium LiFePO4 Deep Cycle battery is

directly related to how deep the battery is cycled each time.

A cycle is what percentage of the battery capacity is being

used each time, when discharging from fully charged to a

percentage Depth of Discharge (DOD) and then charging to

full again. The DOD describes the percentage of the battery

capacity used each time.

Check your battery specications for the expected life cycle.

BATTERY MANAGEMENT

Your Lithium LiFePO4 Deep Cycle battery is equipped

with an internal Battery Management System (BMS). The

BMS monitors the battery’s state and ensures the safety of

operation.

INTERNAL BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

For Lithium Deep Cycle batteries equipped with an internal

BMS, the BMS will control the charging ow and ensure your

lithium battery is safely charged under the correct charging

parameter. There are 2 temperature sensors (1 for prismatic

cells and 1 for the BMS itself) to protect against over-

charging, over-discharge and short-circuiting. The BMS will

limit discharge, manage cut-o voltage and protect the inner

cells. It also contains a circuit that handles cell balancing,

low voltage cuto, high voltage cuto, short circuit protection

and high temperature protection improving performance and

increasing the longevity of the battery.

BLUETOOTH MONITORING

Lithium Deep Cycle batteries equipped with a Bluetooth

enabled BMS can be monitored via Bluetooth with a

Smartphone and the SMART BMS App.

Use the app to access accurate data from your battery including

current cycles, current state of charge, minimum/maximum

voltages and view individual voltages of each battery cell.

To connect to your Smartphone

1. Download the SMART BMS App from the Apple App Store

or Google Play for Android

2. Connect to your battery with Bluetooth

3. Monitor your battery

Note: Parameters are not user accessible.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERY

Your Lithium LiFePO4 battery arrives approx 30% charged

and will require a full charge before use.

CHARGE THE BATTERY

• When the voltage is lower than 12.8V, the battery should be

charged as soon as possible rather than discharging again.

• The charging voltage should be lower than 15V during

charging the battery.

Pending the BMS inside the battery, capacity of the battery

and size of the charger used, a Lithium battery can take

anywhere from 3 to 12 hours to fully charge.

Voltage Capacity

14.4V 100%

13.6V 100%

13.4V 99%

13.3V 90%

13.2V 70%

13.1V 40%

13.0V 30%

12.9V 20%

12.8V 17%

12.5V 14%

12.0V 9%

10.0V 0%

This chart shows the resting

voltage of a lithium battery

compared to its state of charge

in percentage, this is only a guide

and accuracy may vary depending

on what you are using to measure

the voltage. The voltage should

be measured while the battery

is resting, not while charging or

discharging as that will skew the

results. 13.4V or above resting can

be considered fully charged.

CHARGING WITH A BATTERY CHARGER

To ensure that your battery can charge fully and in a

reasonable amount of time, the charger:

• does not have to have a lithium prole to work.

• does need to be the right size for your battery and output

power in the correct voltage range.

• with a Lithium prole, should be at least 10 Amps.

• without a Lithium prole, should be at least 15 Amps, set to

AGM as this tends to be the closest in voltage to what the

lithium batteries want to charge at.

If you have a large battery over 200AH or multiple batteries

totaling more than 200AH then we recommend using a charger

at least 10% of the size of the battery, so a 300AH battery

bank would need at least a 30 Amp charger.

If your charger does not meet the requirements, it won’t

damage the lithium battery due to the inbuilt safety measures,

but it may not charge the battery or only charge to a low level.

If this is the case contact the retailer for a range of Ardent

Lithium Battery Chargers.

CHARGING WITH A SOLAR CHARGER SOURCE

Your Lithium Deep Cycle battery can be charged with solar

panels. Make sure to use a Maximum Power Point Tracking

(MPPT) Regulator to regulate the voltage and current output of

your solar panels to eciently charge your lithium battery.

Conversely, add an Ardent Battery Box with Anderson Plug

Connections. An Anderson style plug is a moulded, heavy-duty

connector designed for high current 12V circuits. They are

commonly used to create a safe and secure power connection

between a battery and the solar panels. Most modern caravans

and campers have an Anderson style plugs installed from

factory.

CHARGING TOO HIGH

If you charge your Lithium Deep Cycle battery above 15V for

a 12V battery, the BMS inside the battery terminal will turn

o. The cut-o voltage settings will vary slightly depending on

current levels, temperature and part tolerances.

To turn ON the battery again, disconnect the charging source

and let the battery rest for several seconds (~30 sec). It should

come on.

If the 12V battery has voltages higher than 18V, the internal

BMS is damaged and will not turn ON. Battery life for a lithium

battery can be enhanced by not discharging the battery to 1Ah

capacity or BMS lower voltage cut-o settings. Discharging

down to BMS lower voltage cut-o settings can quickly

decrease the life of the battery. Discharge down to 20%

capacity remaining then re-charging the battery.

WITH A CHARGED BATTERY

If you have a charged battery

(E.G. car battery) and jumper

cables, follow the below steps in

sequence to bring your Lithium

battery out of safe mode.

1. Disconnect all loads/inputs from

the Lithium battery.

2. Connect the Lithium battery in

parallel to a dierent battery

(battery number 2).

3. Cross reference the voltage on

each battery now they are in

parallel – they should both now

read a similar voltage.

4. Connect an AC to DC charger

to the Lithium battery and

allow it to begin charging. We

recommend a 20 amp or higher

charger.

5. When the charger begins to

charge the Lithium battery,

disconnect battery number 2.

6. The charger should continue

to charge the Lithium battery,

bringing it out of safe mode.

7. Allow the charger to fully charge

the battery.

Starter, follow the below steps in

sequence to bring your Lithium

battery out of safe (low voltage)

mode.

1. Disconnect all loads/inputs from

the Lithium battery.

2. Connect the Jump Starter

cables to the battery (Positive to

Positive, Negative to Negative)

3. Connect an AC to DC charger

to the Lithium battery. We

recommend a 20 amp or higher

charger.

4. Activate the jump starter to

supply power to the Lithium

battery. The charger will now

detect the battery and begin to

charge.

5. When the charger begins to

charge the Lithium battery,

disconnect the Jump Starter

from the battery.

6. The charger should continue

to charge the Lithium battery,

bringing it out of safe mode.

7. Allow the charger to fully charge

the battery.
