Dakota Lithium 12v 25Ah 300cca Battery
Half the weight and twice the power of traditional lead batteries, this workhorse powers premium electronics for full-day adventures. Same performance as our legendary 10 Ah battery, but with 150% more capacity plus 300cca of engine starting power.
Key Features
-
High Performance and Longevity: Utilizes lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) technology, offering twice the power, half the weight, and up to four times the lifespan of traditional lead-acid batteries.
-
300 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA): Provides reliable engine starts in cold weather conditions, making it perfect for vehicles, boats, and other powersports applications.
-
Lightweight and Easy to Handle: Designed to be compact and portable, allowing for easy installation and handling without sacrificing power.
-
Advanced Battery Management System (BMS): Integrated BMS protects against overcharging, deep discharging, overheating, and short circuits, ensuring safety and optimal battery performance.
-
Rapid Charging and Low Self-Discharge: Charges faster than traditional batteries and holds its charge longer, ensuring it’s ready whenever you need it.
-
Maintenance-Free: Requires no regular maintenance, unlike conventional lead-acid batteries, providing a hassle-free user experience.
-
Eco-Friendly Design: Made from non-toxic, recyclable materials, this battery is environmentally friendly and safe for disposal.
Specifications
Capacity: 25 Ampere hours. Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 25 Amp 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: 12.8V
Energy: 300 Watt-hours (Wh)
CCA: 300 cold cranking amps, suitable for ATVs, UTVs, generators and small engines
Terminals: M6 terminals (posts that screw in). 2 sided terminal block allows for side or top installation. When used in salt water environments we recommend applying a small amount of dielectric grease on top of each terminal after installation. It helps extend the lifespan. (Recommended Torque 5 ft lbs, Max Torque 9 ft lbs)
Size: 7.125"x 3.03"x 6.69" (181x77x170mm)
Weight: 6.4 lbs (2.9Kg). That's 60% lighter than a SLA 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: 30A max continuous, 300A max pulse (<5 sec). The flat discharge voltage curve provides a 75% bigger capacity than a 25Ah SLA battery. Please note: a single battery is only appropriate for trolling motors with <20 lbs of thrust. For trolling motors with 20 to 45 lbs of thrust a single DL 54Ah battery is required. Or you can combine two batteries in parallel to create a 50 Amp continuous discharge rate and 60Ah of capacity. This provides the amps necessary to run the larger motor, increases runtime and lifespan of the battery.
Charge: 30A max, 14.4V recommended, 15V max. Please note: this battery should be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. A SLA charger may work, but will reduce performance and lifespan of the battery. Can be charged by ATV, UTV or powersports engine alternator (<30A output).
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.
Charger Sold Separately: This battery should be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. Dakota Lithium 12V batteries should be charged at 14.4 volts, higher than AGM or lead acid. Lead acid chargers will work, but will only charge the battery to 80% of capacity.
Drop in Replacement: Replaces size UB12180, size FM12180, and size 6fm18 SLA batteries with twice the run time and half the weight
Certifications: All batteries are UN38 certified. Dakota Lithium's cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. Meets all US & International regulations for air, ground, and train transport.
ISO 9001:2015: Dakota Lithium is certified by ISO 9001:2015 for lithium battery engineering, manufacturing, and quality control. This meaDakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.
Smart Dual Purpose BMS: Optimizes battery for use in both deep cycle applications and engine starting applications and allows for the battery to be charged by a power sports, tractor, ATV, or UTV engine alternator.
Experience the Dakota Lithium Difference
The DL 25Ah battery is built with Dakota Lithium's legendary LiFePO4 cells. 5,000+ recharge cycles (roughly 8 year lifespan at daily use) vs. 500 for lead acid or AGM. Optimal performance down to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit (for winter warriors). Plus twice the power of lead-acid batteries at half the weight.
Shipping & Returns
We do not ship internationally nor do we ship to Alaska, Hawaii, US Protectorates, P.O. Boxes, APO, FPO, or DPO addresses.
All orders must have a valid street address. Delivery to remote areas may incur additional costs up to $50-$200. Some remote locations deliveries may not be possible and alternative arrangements will need to be made which may incur additional charges.
It takes 1 to 2 days to process your order once it is received.
