I couldn't get my ctek to wake up two 10ah LiFePO4 batteries ..... I luckily discovered on youtube that if I use another charged battery, it will wake the sleeping battery enough to charge it, using my ctek charger at the moment, cheers
Hello! Does the CT5 powersport charger follow the same charging steps as this one? I currently have a lithium battery on my motorcycle and I am trying to decide between the two. Thanks in advance
Hi, Thank you for your message! 😊 Yes it does but with fewer Amps. If you have further questions, please contact us at support.ctek.com/ and we will help you further. Have a great day! ☺
Hi, Thank you for your message! 😊 That's not possible to answer since it would depend on the size of the batteries, their bms, the temperature, the SOC and how they're wired up to each other.

I'm using the LITHIUM XS to maintain 3ah and 4ah lifepo4 motorbike batteries (shido ones with bms protection). Is this OK, as I noticed that the CTEK manual states battery sizes from 5ah upwards?
Hi! We do not recommend using a charger that is made to charge larger batteries than the ones you have. For the best charging experience we'd recommend the CS ONE, which automatically adapts to the size, chemistry and health of your battery and can be used with any battery between 3-180Ah.
I have one of these in my camper. Wondering if it's OK to be charging my LiFePO4 house battery while also having a load on it? Eg. plugged in and charging while my lights are on, fridge is running, etc. off the battery. Will the load on the battery "trick" the charger into thinking the battery is in a deeper state of discharge than it is due to voltage sag, resulting in the charger overcharging the battery? Is it not acceptable to have a load on the battery while charging?
Hi, Thank you for choosing CTEK! You can have the charger active whilst using your lights, fridge and so on - but I think that the Lithium XS is too small for that amount of consumers. The charger gives 5A, and if your consumers takes more there is a risk that the Luthium XS will close down. I recommend a bigger charger, as the PRO25 or M25. Best regards CTEK Support
Yes! As long as the chemistry is LiFePO4, the most common Lithium battery in vehicles today (not Electrical vehicles). Good Luck. Best regards CTEK Support
Hi, Yes, if the batteries are connected in parallel, the charger will see them as one big battery. Make sure the size of the batteries are within the range of what the charger is recommended for. Connecting in Parallel will double the Ah. Best regards CTEK Support
Hi Ian! The Lithium XS is made to charge batteries between 5-60 Ah. If you need to charge a 120Ah LiFePO4 battery, we would recommend the CS ONE. If you're based in a country where the CS ONE is not available, or if you want even more power, you could also choose the PRO25S. Best regards, CTEK Support
Hi, I don't know. You need to check with a battery manufacturer to get sure. There are a lot of Lithium Ion batteries out there, and I have not heard of the one you mention. I hope you will find an answer. Best regards CTEK Support
It means that there is poor contact with the battery or that the battery voltage is below 2V ( the level needed to make the charger reverse polarity protected) Best regard CTEK Support
What does this then mean on no 3 charger. They've been on for one night, and the 3 LiPoFe4 batt's all read 13,8 to 14,2 volt.... ruclips.net/video/bRM2FKUGxoA/видео.html As i see it, it stops at poin 5 ?? Info: the charger and batteries are brand new.
Hi, The charger will fully charge your lithium battery and then keep it fully charge in a safe way. Everythiong looks as it works fine. Bests regards CTEK Support
Oh.. tell me more. is there a LiFePO4 battery in your BMW? In what way does it not work? Tell me more and I will do my best to find the reason. Best regards CTEK Support
Hi, Thank you for your feedback! We will make sure that our Skillbase department gets to know this and hopefully can elaborate on that topic. Have a nice day! 😊
Hello, a have Li-Pol battery on my motorbike, will the charger be able to charge this type of battery? It will not damage battery?

Hi, is it possible to reset uvp in bmw lithium battery with BMW battery charger? There is no "Reset" button, only "Mode".

That would be a better suited question to BMW.

It look like a great charger! Is it totally fanless?
It is! Yes, it is completely sealed, without any external fans.
@@CTEKBatteryChargers Great! Thanks!
When trying to disable uvp protection should I disconnect everything else from the terminals of the battery?
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to us! 😊
That shouldn't be necessary but if you want to be sure you should contact the vehicle manufacturer.
Ctek,you make me smile...
Will this charge a 50ah Lithium battery? Thanks
Yes! As long as the chemistry is LiFePO4, the most common Lithium battery in vehicles today (not Electrical vehicles). Good Luck. Best regards CTEK Support
i have two batteries in an airstream trailer that i believe are in parallel. If i hook a charger to one will both charge?

Angelo ferrara my battery at fault. Ctek charger was spot on for the f80 platform
Unfortunatly not a single word about the lithium mode and the mode button itself.
