I have a 12v 200ah LifePo4 battery that gets seasonal use in the warm weather. I’ve been monitoring the voltage all winter while it’s been sitting unused in my basement and finally plugged it in to a charger today to get it ready for the season. The voltage was about 13.04 so I understood there was about a 50% state of charge based on charts I’ve been looking at. From what I understand that’s a decent state of charge for storage over several months.
When I plugged in the charger the display indicated only about 3.x amp hours in the battery. It’s been charging all day and is up to well over 100 now, hopefully on the way back to 200. But I don’t get the very low amp hour reading in light of the 13.04 voltage reading.
This is all still new to me and I’m totally in the dark. What’s going on here?
