Clayton LPS

[wildjeff]

Hi , had a Clayton 100Ah , 2500W LPS in my T6.1 for 4 years , been great until I foolishly let van engine battery and the LPS run flat. Not had a lot of use these last 12 weeks , thought I had checked and run it enough, obviously not. Van now running after an overnight trickle charge , but the LPS will not wake up, running the engine or plugging into 240v always woke the thing up and the lights all came on indicating charging. No more. I do believe the LPS and its management system might have gone into some thing called a 'deep sleep' so as to protect the battery. Nothing in the instructions helps , and I am waiting a reply to my e mail into Clayton , but likely the Xmas break in the way. Anybody out there had a similar experience and know what to do ?? , Many thks for any help offered , Jeff

Did they give you any indication of what was wrong and/or why it couldn’t be repaired ?

For what they cost it’s defo worth doing some digging and seeing if it can be recovered

If the issue is because it was run too flat then hopefully it could be opened up and internal batteries charged etc to get it back to a workable state ?
