    "Fixed the capacity issue" "120X Pro more cells" NOPE. You mean got caught out with their blatant lies stating the 120X is 120Ah, which it never was/is. Same amount of cells, but now bigger capacity cells giving a more truthful capacity (105Ah cells on the 120X compared to 120Ah in the 120X Pro). Plenty of teardowns showing their lies (including lies about discharge rates).
    Good down to earth review from you though 👍

    Aaah, interesting. I load tested my 120X and got 95 Ah and thought we're on the way down. Reassuring to know it's normal. Happy with ours, 4 yearsish now and going strong. Only runs the van fridge and lights and odds n sods. Cheers mate

    Just to correct you, all LiFePo4 battery cells are 3.2 volts each so in any 12 volt battery there are only ever 4 cells in series connection. 3.2 x 4 = 12.8 volts nominal.
    To build a battery with extra capacity you just use cells of higher capacity, but still only 4 cells, until you are building a very high capacity battery after that you can parallel and series connect extra cells.
    The reason you can't pull 150a is because itech use a very cheap low spec BMS and they get away with it because 99% of people only want to run a fridge or a few lights and never get near 150a. A decent battery can provide 250a all day every day. Everything inside is cheap and low-spec, including the cells. You had better hope you don't need to make a warranty claim and join the legions of others whom they delay, deny, ignore, delete and block. Any dissenting review is also quickly deleted and the poster is blocked.

      @@kizzjd9578 Maybe your BMS is faulty. Their specs say 100a continuous and up to 200a for 5 seconds. As long as you are monitoring internal temps and you are happy that nothing is getting too hot, go for it.

      Thanks Ken.
      I had what must have been an older spec sheet.
      Hope the 5 years would still be honoured depending on what caused a failure.

      No mate the specifications are different.

    Itech is cheap, so they've eventually replaced it Dud 120 with a real 120 ?
    All they did was use real 120 sales this time instead of 100s they're always full of these tricks this company!
    Good luck using this under a bonnet
