Short A LiFePO4 battery may need replacement if it shows reduced capacity, fails to hold a charge, exhibits voltage drops under load, displays physical damage/swelling, or exceeds its lifespan (typically 2,000–5,000 cycles). Use capacity tests, voltage checks, and BMS diagnostics to confirm degradation before replacing.

How Does Reduced Capacity Signal a Failing LiFePO4 Battery?

Reduced capacity—measured as a decline in usable energy—is a primary indicator of LiFePO4 battery degradation. If runtime drops by 20% or more compared to its original specifications, the battery likely requires replacement. For example, a 100Ah battery delivering only 80Ah under identical conditions has reached its end-of-life phase. Track capacity via discharge tests or smart battery monitors.

To accurately measure capacity loss, conduct a full discharge cycle using a constant current load. Compare the results against the battery’s original ratings. Advanced users can analyze Coulombic efficiency—a drop below 95% indicates accelerated aging. Commercial battery analyzers like the Cadex C7400 provide precise capacity measurements through multi-stage testing protocols. For DIY monitoring, Bluetooth-enabled BMS modules paired with smartphone apps offer real-time capacity tracking and historical data trends.
