Same 1,280Wh and same Group 24 case as the ALPHA 1, but with UL1973 listing, a 7,000-cycle rating and a 10-year performance guarantee - the combination you need when an inspector, insurer or marine surveyor asks for paperwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy this battery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUL1973 certified, plus FCC, UN38.3 and MSDS documentation.

It is identical on voltage, capacity, charge rate and discharge rate, and the same 24 lb. The premium buys certification and cycle life, nothing else. If neither matters to your install, the ALPHA 1 does the same work for less.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10.2 x 6.6 x 8.3 in Group 24 case, a direct swap for most lead-acid trays.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharge at 14.4V ± 0.2V on a LiFePO4 profile; a 20A charger fills it in roughly six hours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbout 400W of solar recovers a full charge in one clear day; a 20A DC-DC charger takes about six hours off an alternator or generator.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum charge current 100A - keep controller and charger output under that figure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharging window 32°F to 131°F, discharge -4°F to 140°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10-year performance guarantee published by Rich Solar, the longest term in the 12V ALPHA range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertification of conformity, specification sheet, user manual and app quick-start guide are all published by the manufacturer; ask us if you need copies for an inspection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalifornia Proposition 65 warning applies: this product can expose you to chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RICHSOLAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46391895916694,"sku":"RS-B121SP","price":479.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/5291\/1254\/files\/ALPHA_1_PRO_Lithium_Iron_Phosphate_Battery_20240914.jpg?v=1785821029","url":"https:\/\/sunenergydepot.com\/products\/alpha-1-pro-12v-100ah-lifepo4-battery","provider":"sunenergydepot.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
