LiFePO4 Battery Advantages
-
Up to 5 times lighter than traditional lead-acid batteries.
-
Approximately 20% more power.
Cost effective weight reductionfor Racing and Sports bikes.
-
Latest development in LiFePO4 (Lithium Ferrous Phosphate) chemistry.
Stable Long working life - 5 to 10 Years - 1500 + recharge cycles.
Integrated BMS (Battery Management System) for overcharge protection, individual cell power output and recharge control.
Completely maintenace free.
Zero liquid or GEL corrosives
Zero corrosive gases
Excellent power to weight density.
-
Delivers full power untill almost completely discharged.
Holds charge for more than twice as long as lead-acid batteries.
-
Stronger starting currents for reliable, repeated and consecutive starts even in cold winter temperatures.
Available in standard battery case or Milbay® Soft Pack or custom enclosure where required.
- Environmentally friendly, Recyclable, ROHS (Removal of Harmful Substance) Compliant.
Lead-Acid Battery Disadvantages
Short life.
Heaviest material, Pb Lead.
Delivers only 30% - 70% of battery capacity.
Old technology.
Requires maintenance.
NO Battery Management System.
Low efficency.
Low return on investment.
Most expensive option over the devices lifespan, only last 1/5 the life of LiFePO4 power cell.
More environmentally damaging.
Contains corrosive acid.
Connectors
Milbay design and supply LiFePO4 batteries using many different types of standard and custom connectors depending on the voltage/amps requirements of the target device.
Charging
Depending on the particular application and the design of your current charging system you may or may not require a new charger for your Milbay LiFePO4 Power Cell. After looking at the specifications of your current charger our specialist technicians will be able to advise if a new charger will be required to match your new custom Milbay LiFePO4 Power Cell.
NOTE:
Some Lead-acid battery chargers will not be suitable for to recharge Milbay LiFePO4 Batteries.
Replace the internal lithium cells in E-Bicycle battery pack. Avoid any hardware mounting changes.
In applications where 3 or more SLA batteries are connected in series or parallel then will will create a custom solution for your application. In most applications where only 2 lead acid batteries are connected in series or paralell then it may be possible to use standard LiFePO4 SLA replacement .
