Section 3 - Discharging (using the battery)
The Enerdrive B-TEC Lithium Battery can deliver a maximum of 100 Amps for the 100 & 125Ah battery and
200 Amps for the 200Ah battery for 30 minutes due to the high power, high quality Battery Management
System (BMS) and prismatic Lithium cells inside the battery. For this to happen, you MUST USE cable of the
correct guage.
These are recommended wire guages and approximate current specifications for cable lengths shorter
than 1-2 meters:
Guage 2
35mm²
100 Amps
Guage 0
50mm²
150 Amps
Guage 00
70mm²
200 Amps
A 2000W inverter will draw approximately 170-180 Amps through the cables connected between it and the
battery - this will NOT be achieved with undersized wire.
Consider current like plumbing...
The thicker the pipe (cable) the more current can flow through it.
