Frequently Asked Questions

What is the typical lifespan of an LG RESU 16H Prime battery in a residential application?

The LG RESU 16H Prime typically has a lifespan of 10 years or more, depending on usage patterns, operating temperature, and depth of discharge. The warranty usually covers a specific throughput (kWh) or a time period, whichever comes first.

How does temperature affect the performance and lifespan of the LG RESU 16H Prime?

Extreme temperatures (both high and low) can negatively impact the performance and lifespan of lithium-ion batteries. High temperatures accelerate capacity degradation, while low temperatures reduce capacity and power output. The optimal operating temperature range is typically between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).

What are the recommended settings for the inverter connected to the LG RESU 16H Prime to maximize battery life?

Refer to the inverter manufacturer's documentation for specific recommendations. Generally, avoid high charge/discharge rates and set appropriate voltage limits to prevent overcharging or deep discharging. Enable features like peak shaving and time-of-use optimization to minimize battery cycling.
