I am doing research on best practices for my lithium batteries and lifepo4 powerstation. There’s some conflicting opinions and variation for cycle numbers.

Will leaving my things plugged in at 100% hurt it more than constantly unplugging at 80% and replugging at 20%?

      I just googled it, it seems like it is an all in one system. I assumed you were talking about buying battery cells and designing your own system, but since you have a self contained system (which already obviously has a BMS), you can ignore the last paragraph I wrote previously.

      Hope it serves you well.

      This would have been useful to mention in the original post.

      We have very little control over what the solar does with “power stations”. I’d just leave the panels plugged in.

      I’ve never done any solar before
