Identified by SKU RS-B122S, it provides 2,560Wh nominal energy at 12.8V, with a 200Ah nominal capacity and 100A maximum charging and discharge ratings. This ALPHA configuration includes internal heat technology for supported low-temperature charging conditions and built-in Bluetooth for real-time monitoring through compatible mobile devices. Its integrated battery management system provides documented overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, short-circuit, temperature, and cell-balancing protection functions. The official specification sheet lists an IP65 waterproof and dustproof rating and a UL94 V-0 flame-retardant plastic shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2,560Wh LiFePO4 Storage for Mobile and Off-Grid Systems\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ALPHA 2 provides 200Ah of nominal lithium battery capacity with 2,560Wh of nominal energy for properly designed 12V systems. It is intended for compatible applications where a 200Ah battery configuration is appropriate, including RV, marine, camping, cabin, and off-grid electrical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Heating for Supported Low-Temperature Charging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe battery includes a 100W internal heater controlled by the battery management system. According to the official manual, heating operates only when charging current is present, starts when the internal battery probe detects 41°F or below, and stops when the charger is disconnected or the detected temperature reaches 50°F or above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth Monitoring for Battery Status Visibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in Bluetooth communication allows supported battery operating information to be viewed on a compatible mobile device.
