use, be sure to identify and avoid reversing the positive and negative poles.
After connecting the power line to the pole terminal, cover it with a
protective cover to prevent short circuits.
3. Display Panel: The battery display panel has one fault/running light, 4
SOC indicator lights, and one button: the usage method is as follows: RUN/ALM:
One red light, one yellow light, displayed in yellow when the battery is

7. Communication Port: There are two communication ports: one is Link in, and the other is Link out. Pay attention during use.
8. Pressure relief valve: The waterproof grade is IP67 because the battery is heating during charging and discharging, which leads to thermal expansion. Adding a pressure relief valve can prevent the air pressure inside the battery box from rising, resulting in dangerous accidents. Make sure that there is no other object around the pressure relief valve.
9. Installation bracket: Install the bracket to facilitate battery installation in vehicles. It is recommended to use M6 stainless steel screws to secure the battery. Only available on SNLX12V120BT batteries

Charging Your Battery
· Always use a battery charger with a lithium profile that does not exceed the
charging specifications of the battery
· Charger must not contain Sulphation/Equalisation setting. If so then this
needs to be turned off.
· The charging table should be followed when charging
· Always use a battery charger with a lithium profile that does not exceed the
charging specifications of the battery
· Charger must not contain Sulphation/Equalisation setting. If so then this
needs to be turned off.
· The charging table should be followed when charging · Do not have batteries
sit on float charge for an extended period of time. · Please ensure your
charger is matched to the current rating of your battery and take
note of the recommended charge current in the batteries specification sheet
Normally half the batteries rated capacity. For example SNL12V100S
Recommended charge current = 50A. · We will only warrant the battery if a
Lithium (LiFePO4) profile charger has been used · For specifications for your
battery please visit invictalithium.com.au · If using solar it should utilise
a MPPT regulator that matches the battery specifications · If using a DC-DC
charger ensure it matches the battery specifications

Setting Up A Parallel or Series System
· Before connecting batteries in series or parallel, pay attention to: a). The
batteries must be of the same model. When there are different models,
different capacities, and different voltage platforms, series and parallel
connections are not allowed; b). Ensure that all parallel wires are of
identical length; c). 0.5C charging is recommended, that is, charging current
= half the rated capacity of the battery d). Before connecting the batteries
in series and parallel, the batteries should be fully charged and balanced.
You can check whether the batteries are balanced by using the Invicta Legion
Application
Important Information 1. Before connecting in series or parallel, ensure the
batteries are off. 2. Once the batteries are off, connect the battery leads in
a series and/or parallel
configuration as shown below. Never master-slave a system and always adhere to
the max configuration 3. Connect your accessories and check all connections
are secure.
Parallel example: 2 x 12.8V100Ah System voltage: 12.8V System capacity:100Ah +
100Ah = 200Ah
Series example: 2 x 12V.8100Ah System voltage: 12.82=25.6V System capacity:
100Ah

Simultaneous Series and Parallel: To series batteries allow simultaneous use
of batteries in series and parallel, with a maximum support of 4 series and 4
parallel applications. The connection method is: first in series, then in
parallel, which means that the batteries are connected in series to form a
high voltage and then in parallel to form a high capacity.
Series & Parallel Eg. 16 x 12.8V100Ah 4 in series & 4 in parallel System voltage: 12.8V x 4 = 51.2V System capacity: 100Ah x 4 = 400Ah System = 51.2V 400Ah
4. The batteries can communicate via a `Wired’ connection or Bluetooth
connection 5. the Wired connection utilises the battery-to-battery CAN cables
and is the
preferred method of communication. Below is the Max configuration allowed
depending on which method you use. 6. Extension cables are available for
purchase 7. To set up a parallel or series connection you will need to
download the Invicta legion Application 8. Follow the steps in the following
pages refering to the connection method you have chosen
