Lithium Battery 12 Volt 8 A/H

Perfect replacement for 7ah / 7.2ah lead acid battery. For Gates, Alarms etc.  The Lithium battery can be used for 3000-5000 life cycles. Depending on usage this can be 10 years or more. Lead acid and AGM get roughly 300-500 life cycles before their capacity is reduced substantially. Therefore, even though there is more upfront cost with a Lithium battery, the upgrade saves you allot of money over time.

A typical charge or use cycle for a lithium-ion battery is 8 hours of use, 1 hour to charge and another 8 hours of use. No cool down period is needed. This allows the battery to be used continuously throughout a 24-hour shift, with downtime occurring only during short periods of opportunity charging.

• Voltage remains constant for much longer during discharge.
• Much higher charging rate and so faster charging – varies according to the charging system used.
• Can be discharged quickly without damaging the cells, making them ideal for use with inverters.
• Can be discharged as much as 95% on average without damaging the battery.
• Thousands of charging cycles compared to just a few hundred from a typical lead-acid battery.
• Very low rate of self-discharge means they can be left unattended for months.
• Zero maintenance required.
• Approximately 40% – 50% lighter than a good quality lead-acid battery with a similar Ah rating.
• Very safe, with no toxic fumes or liquid and no risk of fire in normal use.
• Can be used in almost every situation where a lead-acid battery is being used to power alarm systems, garage motors and gates and portable equipment.
