Video to other reviewer: youtu.be/iABKHY2Q5zo?si=D_b6viXTjMBdW49G&t=1475
In this video I review the WattCycle 12V 100Ah Bluetooth Mini LiFePO4 battery. This battery is from the European warehouse but the one in the US is the same. I run a full capacity test, open it up, inspect the cells and BMS, test the temperature protection, and run it in parallel with another battery to check current sharing.
I found several issues with this battery including swollen cells, a low balancing current, a high MOSFET temperature disconnect threshold, and concerns around the balance wires. WattCycle responded to my findings and I include their response at the end of the video so you can judge for yourself.
