1. Using Solar Panels
The LiTime 12V 280Ah battery can be fully charged by in one day (with effective sunshine 4.5hrs/day) by 1200W solar panels. It may take more than one day to fully charge the battery by ≥1200W solar panels since the duration and intensity of light would be a great factor for their charging efficiency.
2. Generator/Alternator
If the alternator or generator supports DC output, a DC-to-DC charger is needed to connect the battery to the generator; if your alternator or generator supports AC output, please add a suitable battery charger to connect the battery and the generator according to our recommendations. The Recommended Charging Voltage: 14.2V - 14.6V. The Recommended Charging Current: ① 56A (0.2C): the battery will be fully charged in around 5 hrs to 100% capacity; ② 140A (0.5C): the battery will be fully charged in around 2 hrs to around 97% capacity.
3. LiFePO4 Smart Chargers
To charge 12V battery, it is recommended to use 14.6V battery charger. The Recommended Charging Voltage: 14.2V - 14.6V. The Recommended Charging Current: ① 56A (0.2C): the battery will be fully charged in around 5 hrs to 100% capacity; ② 140A (0.5C): the battery will be fully charged in around 2 hrs to around 97% capacity.Related reading: Can I Charge LiFePO4 batteries with a Normal Charger?
It would take around 12.3h to charge when using 12V 20A lithium battery charger
It would take around 6.1h to charge when using 12V 40A lithium battery charger
No. This battery is not compatible with the Bluetooth module. You can use a 500A Battery Monitor With Shunt to keep track of battery status.
LiFePO4 batteries can safely charge between 0℃ to 50℃ / 32℉ to 122℉. LiTime 12V 280Ah LiFePO4 batteries include the low-temperature charging protection which will automatically cut the battery charging off when the cell temperature is lower than 32℉, thus preventing the battery cells from damage when charging under the freezing point.
It is recommended to store LiFePO4 lithium batteries at 50% state of charge (SOC). If the batteries are stored for long periods, cycle the batteries at least every 3 months. Recommended storage environment: 10℃～35℃ (50℉～95℉），45%RH～75％RH
No. LiTime LiFePO4 lithium batteries are not intended to be used as starting batteries but energy storage, please do not use them to start any devices. If you need a marine starting battery, you can try LiTime 12V 165Ah dual purpose lithium battery.
Initial impression is that these 280 Amp lithium batts are well made and from previous reviews, should be reliable. The carrier delivered the goods as requested but somehow reported that they were delivered about 40 mins before they actually were. Leading to some problems.
Arrived in good condition on time quality product for the price
Purchased 2x280amp to replace 2x120amp. So far they seam great. I ran my ac on van for 4 hours and had no issues. Also used airfryer to cook dinner same result.
I wish they had 240x60 amp chargers in Australia
So far so good

Performs Great. Love the price point, capacity and our first trip with it went without a hitch.
Delivery was really quick, but the third party couriers website had reliability issues and I could not track my delivery. (Delivery was quick though)
I recently purchased the 280Ah Lithium from the team at Li-Time and so far, have been super impressed with everything from the communication and support prior to purchase (Thank you Patty), to the delivery, packaging and quality of the actual product. Upgrading my caravan from a 100Ah AGM to this beast is a game changer for staying longer off grid. Connected to a 2000W inverter via a Victron 500A Smart Shunt and currently running my 190 litre Bushman 12V fridge. Im positive I’ll be using Li-Time again in the future!
