[Electric Boats] LIFEpo4 house bank

 

Hi all;

Does anyone on the group know enough about LIFEPO4 cells to comment on their
suitability to replace traditional house batteries on boats? The two
characteristics I am concerned about are lifespan in years, ie how long will
they last in years if properly maintained, and the ability to withstand
being partially discharged. If on a cruise, a house bank may be charged up
to 100% only occasionally. Maybe the bank is drawn slowly towards 80%
discharge over a week, and then charged up when motoring. Could they be
stored for a long time at 50%, for instance?
