Default A Simple Question About LiFePO4 Batteries

Interesting - the discharge voltage goes down with lower temperatures - isn't that the opposite of lead-acid? At the least, lead-acid needs higher CHARGING voltages when it's cold.

How well does a microAir radio, which is finicky at low SLA voltages, do with a "12V" LFP battery, which offers a slightly higher voltage on the discharge curve?


I have a MicroAir and it works great with a LIFEFO4 battery.
