LiFePO4 generally degrades to 80% capacity after 10 years, that's it. Safety isn't an issue.
- lostapathy 9mo agoAt which point if you're short on capacity (but who knows how your demand might shift over a decade) it's not like you need to replace the original batteries to get that 20% back, you will probably be able to just expand the pack to bring the capacity up.
