How to choose Li-ion battery capacity when switching from lead acid
Date:2024-12-11

The end of the one-size-fits-all approach to battery capacity for forklifts. Learn how to customize DLNRG Li-ion battery capacity for your specific application!


Why choosing Li-ion batteries can mean more flexibility in battery capacity for your trucks.


Here’s how it works: If you have a 1,000 amp/hour lead-acid battery, an 800 amp/hour Li-ion battery will do the same job.


Lead-acid batteries don’t hold less than the last 20% and their voltage drops dramatically as they discharge.


But Li-ion batteries don’t experience any voltage drop until they are fully discharged!


If you had the opportunity to charge a Li-ion battery during a regular 15-minute break, only a 600 amp-hour capacity battery would do the same job. That’s a 40% reduction!

What else should you consider?


Apart from the lift truck make, model and voltage we can help you factor in the following when making a selection:


The truck compartment size, lift height and weight being handled.


Attachments in use.


Length of the run, number of shifts and length of breaks.


We recommend a higher capacity for batteries that will be used in cold conditions for the handling of heavy loads and higher lifts.


DLNRG offers over 450 models of Li-ion batteries for nearly every make and model of industrial trucks.


Whatever kind of work you are performing with your truck, DLNRG has a battery suited for your specific application with just the capacity you need.
