Hello folks, This is my first video on the channel and I wanted to go over some amazing LiFePo4 Batteries. I just love these valence batteries and I got a great deal! Not many videos showing their range of batteries. I would love to get my hands on the larger size standards but that's dreams...
Looking into possible LiFePo4 Battery Bank builds using some of our batteries, Making custom LiFePo4 battery packs using the cases and/or bms from some dead valence batteries. We will discuss LiFePo4 battery charging in a later video in the series. Possible Solar setup in the future? Look at AliExpress batteries? Soldering or Spot Weld? Use in EBikes? Comparisons to other popular LiFePo4 modules like the BattleBorn.

Valence AKA "Lithium Werks" AKA "Lithion Battery". So they have gone through several rebrands/staff changes lately and as of recently, they are now known as "Lithion Battery" company. They make some industry-leading LiFeMgPo 4 batteries "Lithium Iron Magnesium Phosphate". The magnesium is their little 'touch'. Supposedly having benefits, And considering its a material that costs money, Why would they add it if it didn't actually work? Visit their channel "Valence Technology" for some more clean-cut information about their modules.

Stay tuned for more fun with these great batteries!

Below i have attached a wiring diagram for the Valence Communications Cable to use in place of their "Valence diagnostics toolkit". i have shown the wiring for both generations, The first generation using the "M12" Connector and the second generation using the "Tyco AMP Superseal 5 Pin" Connectors.

I've compiled all the info i have gathered (Manuals, User Guides, SDS Info, and more). Keep this link as i will be adding more useful information during my time with these batteries.
