Guide
LiFePO4 vs Lead-Acid: Total Cost of Ownership and When to Switch
Lithium costs more up front and far less over its life. Here is how to compare the two honestly and decide when a switch pays off.
Guide
Is Lithium Safe? Understanding LiFePO4 Stability and Fire Risk
Not all lithium chemistries behave the same. LiFePO4 is the stable one, and a good BMS does most of the safety work for you.
Guide
Lead-Acid to Lithium: A Retrofit Checklist
Swapping lead-acid for lithium is often a drop-in, but a few checks protect the battery and the machine. Run through these before you fit.
Guide
What a BMS Does: Protection, Balancing and Fault Recovery
The battery management system is the brain of a lithium pack. Here is what it protects against and what to do when it intervenes.
Guide
Lithium for Motive Power: Floor Care, MEWP and Golf
Why daily-duty machines are moving to LiFePO4, and what to look for when you specify a motive lithium battery.
Guide
AGM vs GEL: Choosing the Right VRLA Battery
Both are sealed, maintenance-free lead-acid. The difference is how the electrolyte is held, and that decides which duty each one suits.
Guide
How to Charge VRLA Batteries Correctly (and Make Them Last)
Most lead-acid batteries die from poor charging, not age. Get the voltages, temperature and timing right and you will get the full life.
Guide
Depth of Discharge and Cycle Life: Get the Most From Your Battery
How deep you drain a battery decides how many cycles you get. A small change in depth of discharge can double its working life.
Guide
Battery Sizing Basics: Ah, C-Rates and Runtime Explained
Amp-hours, C-rates and depth of discharge in plain language, with a simple method to size a battery for your load.
Guide
Storage, Transport and Recycling: Shelf Life, UN Numbers and Class 9
How to store batteries so they last, how they are classified for shipping, and how to dispose of them responsibly.
