LiThink Publishes an 11-Point In-House Lab Protocol for LiFePO₄ Batteries Used in RV, Marine and Off-Grid Systems
A LiThink technician conducts verification checks as part of the company's "11-Point Lab Protocol." This rigorous process ensures the safety and durability of LiFePO4 batteries designed for RV, marine, and off-grid use.
Checklist summarises 11 in-house lab checks and links to compliance files (IEC 62619, CE EMC/RED, UN38.3, RoHS, REACH, BattG).
BERLIN, GERMANY, January 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- LiThink today published a public overview of its internal “11-Point Lab Protocol” used to validate LiFePO₄ batteries designed for RV, marine and off-grid applications in Europe. The company said the checklist is intended to address a common buyer concern: battery specifications are often easy to compare, but verification practices are rarely visible.“Long service life is not only a chemistry question. It is also about repeatable verification, and about designing for real European use cases—winter storage, salt air, deep cycling, and mobile installations,” a LiThink spokesperson said. “We are publishing our protocol so customers and installers can see what we check before products ship.”
The protocol is organised into two sections: environmental & mechanical resilience, and electrical safety & long-duration validation.
11-Point Lab Protocol (public overview)
A. Environmental & Mechanical Resilience (6 checks)
1. Salt Spray Exposure: evaluates corrosion resistance for casing hardware and external connection areas in marine and coastal conditions.
2. Temperature & Humidity Exposure: checks sealing integrity and functional stability under high humidity and temperature variation.
3. Vibration Test: simulates continuous multi-axis vibration typical of RV and trailer operation to verify retention and connection stability.
4. Drop Test: evaluates structural robustness after controlled drops to confirm the enclosure and internal fixation remain intact.
5. Impact Test: assesses resistance to sudden external shocks that can occur during transport or handling.
6. Transport Simulation: reproduces logistics stresses (shock/vibration/temperature changes) to help ensure the battery arrives in usable condition.
B. Electrical Safety & Long-Duration Validation (5 checks)
7. Charge/Discharge Cycling (Cycle & Aging): long-duration cycling used to evaluate consistency over time and to support warranty planning.
8. Short-Circuit Response: verifies protective cut-off behaviour of the battery protection system during electrical fault scenarios.
9. Thermal Abuse Screening: evaluates behaviour under abnormal high-temperature stress conditions to confirm stability under misuse scenarios.
10. Low-Temperature Behaviour: verifies protection logic and cold-weather usability; models with heating functions are evaluated for cold-condition readiness.
11. Crush Resistance Screening: evaluates safety behaviour under severe mechanical deformation scenarios.
LiThink added that the protocol is paired with product design measures intended to improve long-term mechanical stability in prismatic-cell packs, including rigid internal retention and comprehensive insulation practices, where applicable across the product lineup.
