The debate is always raging about which is the best solution between lithium batteries and traditional lead batteries. On the one hand, the almost total discharge capacity (and therefore usability) of lithium batteries, and on the other, the peak performance and power offered by traditional AGMs, which, however, cannot drop below 80% of their voltage otherwise they are irreparably compromised.
It’s quite a dilemma to face, especially when it comes to marine use, where our beloved service batteries are subjected to intensive use and must (given their cost) last a long time and not leave us stranded.
Fortunately, the German company BOS AG has come up with an ingenious solution that maximizes the strengths of the two alternatives by making them work together – an innovation that we were so intrigued by that we wanted to try it out…
