Description
WARRANTY Best in Class 11 Year Warranty. That is 10 years more warranty then most lead acid batteries.
STORAGE CAPACITY 280 ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 280 amp hours. DL LiFePO4 batteries have a flat voltage curve, which means they have a steady power output as the battery discharges. The power output will not dramatically drop like similar sized SLA batteries. You get all the juice down to the last drop.
COLD CRANKING AMPS 1,000 CCA is adequate to start most boat and large vehicle engines
VOLTAGE 12.8 Volts (Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems)
SIZE & WEIGHT 14.6 in x 7.7 in x 10.75 in (L370mm ×W195mm ×H274mm). Height is to the top of the terminals. Handles fold down.
LIFESPAN/LIFECYCLES Up to 80% capacity for 4,000 cycles in recommended conditions, 70% capacity at 5,000 recharge cycles. Half-life (50% capacity) of 6,000 – 7,000 re-charge cycles (Typical SLA has 500 cycles). Backed up by an 11 year warranty.
DISCHARGE 200 A max continuous, 300 A max 10-second pulse, 1,000 A max 2-sec CCA pulse. LiFePO4 chemistry has a flat voltage curve, meaning this battery will maintain a voltage of >12V for the full discharge cycle in most applications.
CHARGE <200 A standard charge, 300A max charge current for <60 sec. Included is a LiFePO4 compatible charger. A SLA charger may work, but will reduce performance and lifespan of the battery. Even heat technology allows for charging below 32’F. Internal even-heat technology allows for charging below 32 F / 0 C
OPERATING TEMPERATURE Ideal for rugged & harsh environments. Much better than SLA or other lithium’s. -20’F min, +120’F max optimal operating temps (battery performs well down to -20’F). Even heat technology allows for charging below 32’F.
INTERNAL EVEN-HEAT TECHNOLOGY Increases performance in extreme cold. When charging the battery in temperatures below 0’C/32’F DL’s internal heating element will warm the cells to 0’C/32’F. This increases the lifespan, performance, and efficiency of the battery.
SAFE & RELIABLE Includes active BMS protection circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life
TERMINALS AND POSTS F12 Terminals (posts that screw in) with M8 post bolts included. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.)
MARINE GRADE & WATERPROOF Max IP65 water resistance rating. Appropriate for marine environments, not submersible.
CERTIFICATIONS All batteries are UN 38 certified. Dakota Lithium’s cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. Meets all US & International regulations for air, ground, train, & marine transport.
FREE LIFEPO4 CHARGER INCLUDED Free 12V 20 Amp (A) charger included ($299 value). Dakota Lithium batteries like to be charged at 14.4 volts, higher than AGM or lead acid. Lead acid chargers will work, but will only charge the battery to 80% of capacity.
