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.

We are a wholesaler of RV's and have sold and installed quite a few of these batteries without any issues.
The BT App is simple to use and gives you basic information on the batteries status and performance.

Installed two of these in a customer's C class motorhome. He loves them. He would have to change out his Group 31 Lead Acid batteries every year because they wouldn't last. Put two of these into his coach and
He was able to run all day and night without an issue.
