Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery: What is It, Why Choose It

What is LiFePO₄?

Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄ or “LFP”) is the safest and most stable cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, offering optimal electrochemical performance and low resistance.

Safety & Stability

Thanks to the safe and stable chemical, LiFePO₄ batteries are less prone to catching fire or exploding compared to other types of lithium-ion batteries.

Long Lifespan

LiFePO₄ batteries deliver an extended battery life, making them a reliable and long-lasting power source for a wide range of applications.

Unrivalled Duability

LiFePO₄ batteries can reach up to 100% depth of discharge and retain up to 80% of their original capacity even after thousands of charge cycles. The mid-to-high-end power stations of BLUETTI even allow for over 3,500 charge-discharge cycles.

500-3,500 Cycles

Low Discharging Rate

Featuring a low self-discharging rate, LiFePO₄ batteries enable the stored energy to retain for longer periods when not in use or under a very light load, ensuring sufficient power when it's needed.

Eco-friendly

NCM batteries contain heavy metals like nickel, cobalt, and manganese that can damage our environment. LiFePO₄ batteries are non-toxic, emission-free, and ultra-friendly to our environment and planet.

Low-Heat-Generating

Compared to other lithium-ion batteries, LiFePO₄ batteries generate less heat during charging and discharging, reducing the risk of thermal runaway and increasing the safety and efficiency.

Constant Output

LiFePO₄ batteries deliver a constant voltage output during discharge and a flat discharge curve, allowing a more stable and predictable power supply for most scenarios.
