Hasn't the battery manufacturing in China matured over the last year or two. This is a complete battery with heating, low temperature, almost exactly 100AH with Bluetooth. Fantastic.

[@BradCagle]

It's wild, man. Also I just added a discount code that I think will make it even cheaper, LOL. Thanks, Ben.

I bought this same battery about three weeks ago for my travel trailer. I love the bluetooth, so I don’t need a bunch of other wires, shunts, gauges to give me the state of charge. The price difference between the heated and non heated was only a few dollars so it was worth the upgrade. You are the first person that I have seen disassemble this particular model of Vatrer battery so I was a particularly nice video for me, thanks.

[@BradCagle]

Nice. You get the kitchen sink with this battery for the price of the cheapest batteries around. Thanks!

[@timothyprentice5944]

Very nice review. Thank you for taking the time to be so thorough.

[@BradCagle]

You're welcome. Thanks for watching :)

[@helenabha]

There is a 300ah model. It would be nice to evaluate it when there is a chance. Thank You

[@BreakingElegance]

I am pissed I bought the standard version of this battery a few months back on amazon now this one is out

[@ramfanweber632]

Wish you could of verified the Bluetooth was accurate during testing to your shunt while charging and discharging and cold temp testing with heaters on. Thanks for showing us battery.

[@BradCagle]

Good call, I might find some time to check that. Thanks!

[@holgerk6352]

This! Would love to see an update if the internal measures in the bt app is correct when heatmat is working vs external shunt. As I understand, external shunts aren’t working correct with self heated batterys because the shunt logs the energy for the heating like it is used to charge the battery, correct? So you have to recalibrate the shunt if the heating was used?

[@BradCagle]

@@holgerk6352 Interesting, I have not thought of that, but I can see where it would be a problem with an external shut. Ill see if I can get a test going where I freeze the battery, and see what the BMS does for SOC while heaters are on. Thanks

[@holgerk6352]

@@BradCagle nice! :)

[@JustBlessd84]

So how many man hours did the battery run the heater? Great review by the way and hope to use your promo code soon 😂

[@kevinholland4156]

I'm impressed with the battery. Where do the Chinese come up with these names? What 1500 watt inverter is that and do you like it?

[@jc35957]

Look in the video description

[@billdavidson4424]

How much battery power is lost if my rv is in freezing Temps nonstop for weeks? No charging allowed by BMS?

[@BradCagle]

Good question, Bill. So usually the way heated batteries work, they only heat when charging is applied (i.e. the charge power gets directed to the heater). They typically do not use the battery power to heat. Now that being said, I need to test this battery to verify this one does it that way. Thanks

[@billdavidson4424]

So if my solar charge controller applies power your test shows no power goingbinto the battery from your power source. Anyway if the sun is out and its freezing then heaters warm the battery so it can accept charge. Then does the battery cool off and stop charging and turn the heaters back on and repeat this cycle all day? Boondocks you need all the solar charging you can get. Thanks

[@ryan99gsr]

Do you have any plans to review the vatrer 51.2v server rack battery? I've been tempted to get one.

[@BradCagle]

Yes. They are supposed to send one. I'll keep asking them. Thanks

[@ryan99gsr]

Awesome! It seems like a pretty good deal with free shipping and the display. It's between that one or the calpha that you reviewed. It's hard for me to justify shipping on a single battery so I've been looking at ones with free shipping. I've been using 12v batteries in series but can't keep them balanced so I missing 9ah of capacity

[@trainmaster0217]

How do I download the blue tooth app to my laptop? I don't have a cell phone. Went to Google Play but it won't let me make a Google acct on my PC.

[@BloodAlwaysFindsItsLevel]

Whats the red top equivalent

[@marciaprater5120]

"The battery will activate the heating function only when the charging current is more than 10A. " -Looks like my 100w panel or Noco 10amp isn't going to trigger the heating function.

[@fullyelectric]

Very nice i like this one

[@johnperry5960]

That's a great price for a battery that is also heated

[@jimcny3]

Nice price great features.

[@kamyk357]

Chow much is dirt cheap? :P
