12V Lithium Battery · LiFePO4 · Bluetooth
The ALPHA 1 is Rich Solar's core 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery — built with premium A+ grade EV cells, rated for 5,000+ cycles with Bluetooth app monitoring and internal self-heating for cold-weather charging, sized for RVs, trailers, vans, boats, and off-grid use.
The ALPHA 1 is the core model in Rich Solar's ALPHA 1 lineup, powered by advanced EV-grade LiFePO₄ cells rated for 5,000+ charge cycles — roughly 3x the lifespan of a comparable lead-acid battery, at about a third of the weight for the same power output.
Bluetooth app monitoring and internal self-heating come standard, matching the ALPHA 1 PRO's connected feature set. The main difference from the PRO is certification: the PRO carries UL1973 certification and a higher 7,000-cycle rating, while the standard ALPHA 1 sits at 5,000+ cycles without that certification.

All three ALPHA 1 batteries share the same 12.8V 100Ah, 1,280Wh core. The row highlighted below is the standard ALPHA 1 this page describes.
| Model | Heating | Bluetooth | Cycle Life | UL1973 | Max Charge |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ALPHA 1 | ✔ | ✔ | 5,000 | ✖ | 100A |
| ALPHA 1 LITE | ✖ | ✖ | 4,000 | ✖ | 100A |
| ALPHA 1 PRO | ✔ | ✔ | 7,000 | ✔ | 100A |
All three share the same 12.8V 100Ah, 1,280Wh core. The standard ALPHA 1 has heating and Bluetooth like the PRO, but a lower 5,000-cycle rating and no UL1973 certification; the LITE has neither heating nor Bluetooth and a lower 4,000-cycle rating.
Real-time state of charge, voltage, current, temperature, and remaining capacity, with barcode-scan pairing and remote power on/off — available for both iOS and Android.
Charging locks out entirely below 32°F. Internal heating activates automatically below 41°F to bring the battery to a safe charging temperature, then shuts off once it passes 50°F.
About 6 hours with a dedicated LiFePO4 charger (14.4V, 20A) or a 20A DC-DC generator charger, or roughly one sunny day with 400W+ of solar input.
