1. Introduction
1.1. Product description
The WP-Lithium Power Plus 12 V/105 Ah is a Lithium Iron Phosphate rechargeable baery.
The unique combinaon of state-of-the art technology and smart soware makes this
Lithium baery a robust, safe and easy to use energy storage soluon.
The Lithium Power Plus baery uses exceponally safe Lithium Iron phosphate (LiFePO4)
technology. With its integrated baery management system the Lithium Power Plus baery
is protected from deep discharging, overcharging and overheang.
Cauon!External disconnect device is required!
1.2. Intended use
The WP-Lithium Power Plus 12 V/105 Ah baery serves as a energy source of 12V in power
systems for recreaonal vehicles, commercial vehicles, leisure boats, commercial vessels
and staonary applicaons. Potenal applicaons of this Lithium Power Plus baery in-
clude: o grid power supply, marine power supply, medium for (renewable) energy storage
and (tracon) baery for vehicles.Use as a starter baery is not possible. Up to 4 baeries
can be connected in series or in parallel to increase the total capacity up to 420 Ah. For
more baeries in series or parallel always consult with WhisperPower.
