Lithium phosphate batteries…expensive!
Thought someone may like the following info if you are considering changing to lithium but are a little freaked out by the price / putting it off as I am.
There is a company, selling in America , called Ipowerqueen that are selling exceptionally cheap and apparently good value Lithium leisure batteries.
They are also in Germany and I contacted them last night re postage to UK as they deliver free throughout EU.
The website is available in different languages, may be worth a visit

A chap called Mike messaged me back, saying they would be opening a branch in the UK in a few months.
Just a taster, a 100amp hr €399 with a discount at the checkout. 12.8v, from 4000cycles, weight 11kg, 100A BMS to protect against over charge & discharge, over current, short circuit, over temperature. 2 hours fully charged with a 50A charger.Apparently can be used at minus 10 deg C and charged from 0deg C. Whole range of others available….also ones that can be charged at below 0 deg c as well.
I like the 300 amp hr, usable capacity of 3840Wh, 29kg, 4000-15000+ cycle times under different depth of discharge, usable 100% depth of discharge and €1088.99!
They are said to use good quality prismatic cells (what ever that means) and even though not ‘top of the range’ may possibly suit some people.
There are videos of reviews, use tests, strip downs etc on YouTube.
I have no connection to the company, just though the info maybe of use…obviously you’d need to check supporting electrics in your van for suitability.
Cheers,
Peter
