EXTENDED BATTERY LIFE
CHARGE YOUR BATTERIES WHILE DRIVING
Ensuring the longevity of your electric vehicle’s batteries is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and minimizing maintenance costs. The SolarDrive S6F solar system offers a unique solution to help you achieve just that—charging your batteries while you drive.
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DEPTH OF DISCHARGE AND BATTERY LIFE
Especially with lead-acid batteries, there exists an exponential relationship between the “Depth of Discharge” (DOD) and the number of Life Cycles or charge cycles. This relationship is illustrated by the black curve in the chart below.
PREVENTING DEEP DISCHARGES
The SolarDrive S6F solar system plays a crucial role in preventing deep discharges of your batteries. Unlike traditional grid chargers, which only recharge your batteries while parked, our solar system actively charges your batteries while you drive as well. This continuous charging process has a significant positive effect on your battery’s overall life cycle.
LOCAL CONDITIONS AND USAGE PATTERNS
The actual impact of the SolarDrive S6F system on your battery life may vary depending on local conditions and your usage pattern. Some of our customers have reported seeing a 50% extension in battery life, while others have experienced up to three times longer battery life.
Harnessing the power of the sun to charge your batteries while driving not only extends battery life but also reduces the need for frequent charging and maintenance. It’s a sustainable and cost-effective way to ensure that your electric vehicle remains in peak condition for years to come.
