Are Battle Born Batteries Equipped for Starting Applications?
Although Battle Born Batteries thrive in deep cycle house applications, they are not equipped to handle the cold cranking amps that starting an engine requires. It is best to use a lead-acid battery for starting your engine. The lead-acid chemistry can provide the large rush current and quick recharging needed for starting. A quality lead-acid battery will last many years in this application. When it comes to the house banks, lead acid batteries really struggle with longevity when they can’t be fully recharged.
On the other hand, lithium-iron-phosphate batteries, like Battle Born, thrive at a partial state of charge and can operate without worry of diminished capacity in house electrical systems. While multiple Battle Born Batteries, connected in parallel, can be used to start an engine in an emergency, we don’t recommend it. Prolonged use in starting applications can result in diminished capacity or damage to the battery management system.
