Features

Cold Weather Ready

With a robust system that draws power from the charger itself, LT models do not require additional components – such as a heated blanket – to bring the battery to a safe temperature for charging.

Lightweight

RELiON lithium batteries provide more power than lead-acid batteries and are typically half the weight. Boosting both performance and agility on the water.

Fast Charging

RELiON lithium batteries charge much faster than traditional lead-acid batteries, and they’re packed with more usable energy and up to 10 times longer life so you’re always ready to go!

Long Life

RELiON lithium batteries provide up to 10 times longer life than lead-acid batteries, and they still provide 80% of the rated capacity after 3,500 cycles.

Maintenance Free

RELiON lithium batteries are maintenance-free – no watering, no corrosion. Low self-discharge means the batteries don’t lose capacity when they’re idle, assuring that you have the energy you need, every time you need it.

Constant Power

Full power available throughout discharge. Voltage does not drop like lead-acid.

Partial State of Charge Tolerant

Partial state of charge, known as PSOC, which is a killer of lead-acid batteries, does not affect performance or battery life of a lithium battery. Sometimes batteries don’t get fully charged, or they regularly operate in a partial state of charge. Either way, you can count on RELiON lithium batteries living a long and productive life.

More Usable Capacity:

Lead-acid batteries are typically sized up to two times your energy needs to account for extended periods without sun and less usable energy with higher rates of discharge. Plus, you are typically cautioned to limit your use to 50% of the rated capacity, as using more can significantly reduce performance. Lithium batteries provide 100% of their rated capacity, regardless of the rate of discharge. And, you can use it all and still get substantially longer cycle life.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do LiFePO4 batteries perform in cold temperatures?
As with all batteries, cold temperatures will result in reduced performance. LiFePO4 batteries have significantly more capacity and voltage retention in the cold when compared to lead-acid batteries. Important tips to keep in mind: When charging lithium iron phosphate batteries below 0°C (32°F), the charge current must be reduced to 0.1C, and below -10°C (14°F) it must be reduced to 0.05C. Failure to reduce the current below-freezing temperatures can cause irreversible damage to your battery. RELiON’s LT Series is specifically designed for cold charging, utilizing charge current to heat the battery before allowing charge. With the LT series, you can start the charge below 0°C (32°F).
How does the RB300-LT (Low Temp) battery work?
The RB300-LT features the same size and performance as RELiON's RB300, but can safely charge at temperatures that drop below 0°C (32°F) using a standard charger. The system features proprietary technology which draws power from the charger itself, requiring no additional components. The entire process of heating and charging is completely seamless for the user. Simply plug the battery into the regular lithium charger and the internal heating and monitoring system takes care of the rest. Because it takes time to heat the cells, the charging process will take a little longer in below-freezing temperatures.
How can I determine the state of charge (SOC) of my lithium iron phosphate battery?
The best way to determine the SOC of your battery is to use a battery indicator— a high-precision instrument that captures instantaneous and integrated data in real-time. RELiON’s battery indicator uses a 500A shunt to accurately measure the discharge/recharge currents and calculates the Ampere-hours (Ah) flowing in and out of the battery.
Can I connect my LT batteries in series/parallel?
LT batteries may be connected in parallel only. Series connections are NOT allowed.
