November 30, 20232 yr Hi everyone, I have a Kodak 7kw inverter with a 5kw Kodak Fl5.2 battery. I want to add another battery to the system but the FL5.2 is relatively expensive compared to volta etc. Is it possible to use another battery brand in combination with the FL5.2?
December 1, 20232 yr Good evening @hvl2 Usually it is not recommended that LiFePO4 and other Lithium batteries are mixed so I would recommend not to use any other Lithium battery in parallel with the Kodak FL5.2, I have done a quick search and the Kodak FL5.2 goes for around R33K without the cable I have seen one shop where the price is R30K. Kind Regards GerhardK83
December 4, 20232 yr Author Noted, thank you Gerhard. I'll stick with the Kodak battery. Kind regards, Hugo
February 12, 20242 yr I have exactly the same issue with the absurdly expensive FL5.2 batteries. Not much under R40k. Compared to other descent brand, almost double. Started thinking maybe I should sell my 2, or buy secondhand, from someone in the same boat?
