Yes, temperature significantly affects the performance of lithium batteries. It’s crucial to ensure that these batteries are not charged at very low temperatures.
While discharging is generally not problematic, charging can be an issue in cold conditions.
For instance, with lithium-ion phosphate batteries, charging at full power is only viable above 5 degrees Celsius.
Below this temperature, the Battery Management System (BMS) restricts charging. To address this, it’s advisable to heat the battery, either by discharging or using heating pads.
Conversely, in high heat conditions, the impact isn’t as critical, although it’s still important to monitor the battery’s performance and environment.
