Installation notes

Before you install.

Open a question for model-specific guidance and sources.

Verified against the manufacturer's documentation (rev. 12.8V 230Ah Plus Low-Temp, 200A BMS; undated 8-page manual), checked 2026-10-19. Manufacturer documentation →

Which LiTime 230Ah battery is this?

This is the 12.8 V 230 Ah Plus Low-Temp model with a 200 A BMS. The manufacturer product page distinguishes it from the Bluetooth Smart and 24 V self-heating versions. Use it for house loads or energy storage; LiTime expressly excludes engine starting.

What charging and discharge limits apply?

Manual pages 2–3 specify 200 A continuous for both charge and discharge. The recommended charging current is 46 A, using CC/CV at 14.4 V ±0.2 V. The 600 A, five-second discharge capability is temporary and does not increase the continuous limit. Size external cable protection separately from the internal BMS.

How are the terminals connected?

The manual identifies positive and negative M8 × 1.25 posts with 12–14 Nm tightening torque. Fit the insulating caps after securing the lugs. This model has no Bluetooth or self-heating; the product page specifies that charging stops below 0°C and resumes at 5°C.
