I am doing research on best practices for my lithium batteries and lifepo4 powerstation. There's some conflicting opinions and variation for cycle numbers.

Will leaving my things plugged in at 100% hurt it more than constantly unplugging at 80% and replugging at 20%?

Thank you for the reply. Yes I am off griding running off solar just got a bluetti eb3a to manage panel power since I've never done any solar before and didn't want to mess things up. it seems pretty smart.

I just googled it, it seems like it is an all in one system. I assumed you were talking about buying battery cells and designing your own system, but since you have a self contained system (which already obviously has a BMS), you can ignore the last paragraph I wrote previously.

Hope it serves you well.

We have very little control over what the solar does with "power stations". I'd just leave the panels plugged in.
