Built Dakota tough, this single 72V (volt) 55Ah (amp hour) battery will power your passions from morning to night. Engineered with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology this battery has three times the power, one third the weight, and lasts 8 times longer than a set of lead acid batteries - providing exceptional lifetime value. Built as a drop in replacement for 72V electric vehicles, 72V golf carts, and 72V electric outboard motors. The exceptional energy density makes this an excellent choice for vehicles where weight is at a premium -- one single 72V 55Ah Dakota Lithium battery weighs 1/5 as much as a set of lead acid batteries. Enjoy increased performance, speed, and handling for 72V golf carts, people movers, and neighborhood electric vehicles. Free 72V LiFePO4 battery charger included. To increase your driving range link multiple units in parallel. For vehicles with higher amp motor controllers two or more batteries may be required. For motor controllers with 100A-250A two units are recommended. Motor controllers with 250A-350A three units are recommended. For example, an EZGO 72V Freedom has a 350A motor controller and requires 3 units in parallel. Most 72V golf carts can fit 3+ units in the battery compartment. For other electric vehicles measure the size of your battery compartment and compare to the length and width of the battery. Exceptional reliability with 5X the lifespan of traditional lead acid or AGM batteries. Backed up by a best in class 11 year warranty. Go further, play harder, and last longer with Dakota Lithium.
11 Year Warranty
World beating, best in class, eleven year manufacturer defect warranty.
Storage Capacity
55 ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 55 ampere 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.
Voltage
72V (not intended for wiring multiple batteries in series, 72V systems only). Can be wired in parallel up to 10 units.
Energy
3,960 Watts (Wh)
Terminals
M8 bolt size. Easy to adapt to different connection needs. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.)
Size
20.5”L x 10.5”W x 8.62”H (521mm x 268mm x 219mm)
Weight
88.1lbs (40Kg). That's 75% lighter then a lead acid battery.
Lifecycles (battery lifespan)
Up to 80% capacity for 5,000 cycles in recommended conditions. The typical SLA has 500 cycles. Dakota Lithium batteries last so long that the price per use is a fraction of traditional batteries.
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). Avoid charging below 32'F.
Discharge
60A max continuous, 120A max 30-second pulse. For motor controllers with 100A-250A two units are recommended. 250A-350A three units are recommended.
Charge
30A max, 86.4V max recommended. Included is a 72V 10A LiFePO4 compatible charger (5.5 hour charge time).
Includes active BMS protection
Contains a circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life.
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.
ISO 9001:2015 Certified
Dakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.
Charger Included
