Reliable Power for Every Adventure: The Latest 100Ah Lithium (LiFePO4) Deep-Cycle Batteries
The new 100Ah lithium deep-cycle batteries are designed to be the most reliable and long-lasting batteries ever manufactured. With exceptional performance and full international certification, these batteries ensure you never run short of 12V power on your 4WD and camping adventures. Designed to fit standard Group 27 (N70) battery boxes and trays, they offer a seamless upgrade for your existing setup.
Advanced Manufacturing and Rigorous Quality Assurance
Manufactured using top-tier robotic processes, these batteries undergo strict quality assurance, including serialized tracking and pre-shipment cycle testing. Each battery's test report is stored for future reference, providing confidence in their performance. Backed by a 5-year Australian warranty, these batteries are built to last.
Top-Quality Cylindrical Cells
The 100Ah deep-cycle lithium batteries are constructed with the highest quality 26700 high-discharge cylindrical cells. These cells are meticulously matched to ensure minimal internal resistance and voltage differences, then ultrasonically welded to create strong, reliable connections. Encased in custom-molded ABS plastic cell holders, these batteries are built to withstand shock and vibration, ensuring consistent reliability.
Cylindrical vs. Prismatic Cells
While prismatic cells are lighter and easier to manufacture, cylindrical cells offer greater efficiency, produce less heat, and tend to be more reliable. These benefits, similar to those found in Tesla and Rivian vehicles, led to the decision to use cylindrical cells in these batteries.
Certified to International Standards
These lithium batteries meet all required and optional international standards for performance and safety, including:
- UN 38.3: Safety testing for lithium batteries in transport.
- IEC 62133-2:2017: Safety testing for portable lithium batteries under intended use and misuse (including vibration testing).
- IEC 62619:2022: Safety standards for lithium batteries in industrial use.
- CE: Compliance with EU safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.
The manufacturing facility is also certified to:
- ISO 9001: Quality management systems.
- ISO 14001: Environmental management systems.
More Usable Power, Longer Life
Understanding the difference between nominal and C20 capacity is crucial when comparing batteries. The C20 rating represents the number of amps a battery can deliver over 20 hours, providing a realistic measure of performance. Reputable manufacturers, including Hardkorr, quote the C20 rating, ensuring transparency and accuracy in battery capacity.
Why Upgrade to Lithium?
- Long Cycle Life: Lasts up to 10x longer than Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) batteries.
- More Usable Capacity: Safely use up to 80% of capacity, and 99% in emergencies (vs. 50%/70% for SLA).
- Fast Charging: Charges up to four times faster than equivalent AGM batteries.
- Lightweight: About half the weight of equivalent SLA batteries.
- Environmentally Friendly: Non-toxic, acid-free, and can be installed in any orientation.
Convenient Remote Reset Switch
The Battery Management System (BMS) in these lithium batteries includes a protection circuit that activates if the voltage drops below 10.0V, putting the battery into 'sleep' mode. Resetting this circuit used to be a challenge, but the included remote reset switch provides an easy solution. Simply connect the switch to the socket on the battery and hold the button for 5 seconds to reset the over-discharge circuit. The switch can also be flush-mounted into your 12V setup for added convenience.
