Lead-acid batteries have a history of more than 100 years. Due to their simple manufacturing process, low cost of use, and good stability, lead-acid batteries are widely used in electric vehicles, energy storage, UPS, and automotive power supplies. But he has a fatal shortcoming, that is, the service life is extremely short. In recent years, lithium battery technology has gradually developed and matured, and it has become a trend to use lithium batteries to replace aging lead-acid batteries. CERAMAX provides long-life and environmentally friendly lithium iron phosphate batteries, which are equipped with smart BMS to effectively manage the batteries. Compared with traditional lead-acid batteries, they have smaller size, lighter weight and more extensive performance and application advantages.
Why you should upgrade your SLA battery with Lithium-ion Battery?
1. Higher Capacity A lower rated lithium battery will often have a higher actual capacity than the comparable lead acid battery.
2. Longer Cycle Life
There is a notable difference between SLA and Lithium is the cyclic performance of lithium. Lithium has ten times the ccle life of SLA under most conditions.
3. Maintenence Free No servicing or watering required No need for hydrogen gas extraction provisions
4. More Constant Power A lithium battery as shown in the orange has a constant voltage as it discharges throughout the entire discharge. Power is a function of voltage times current. The current demand will be constant and thus the power delivered, power times current, will be constant.
5. Better Performance in Higher Temperature Lithium’s performance is far superior than SLA in high temperature applications. In fact, lithium at 55°C still has twice the cycle life as SLA does at room temperature. Lithium will outperform lead under most conditions but is especially strong at elevated temperatures.
6. Lighter Weight for Same Capacity At the same capacity, the Lithium’s weight is less than half of SLA battery.
