Experience the Dakota Lithium Difference
The DL 24V 60Ah battery is built with Dakota Lithium's legendary LiFePO4 cells. 3,000+ recharge cycles (roughly 8-10 year lifespan at daily use) vs. 500 for other lithium batteries or lead acid. Optimal performance down to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit (for winter warriors). Plus twice the power of lead-acid batteries at half the weight.
Specifications
11 YEAR WARRANTY
World beating, best in class, eleven year manufacturer defect warranty.
STORAGE CAPACITY
60 ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 60 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
24V rated (26.6V resting voltage) Dakota Lithium 24V batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems.
TERMINALS
M8 bolt size. Easy to adapt to different connection needs. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.)
SIZE
9.1 in (230mm) L x 6.8 in (174mm) W x 8.66 in (220mm) H. Group 24. Group 34.
WEIGHT
24.9 lbs (11.3Kg). That's 70% lighter than a SLA battery.
LIFECYCLES (BATTERY LIFESPAN)
Up to 80% capacity for 3,000 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.

Maintenance Tips
-
Regular Charging: Use a charger designed specifically for LiFePO4 batteries. Charge the battery regularly and avoid discharging it below 20%. Keep the charge between 20% and 100% for the best performance and longevity.
-
Avoid Deep Discharge: Do not discharge the battery below 20% regularly. Deep discharges can reduce the battery’s lifespan by decreasing its total charge cycles.
-
Temperature Control: Store and operate the battery within the ideal temperature range of 32°F to 113°F (0°C to 45°C). Exposure to extreme temperatures, either too hot or too cold, can affect performance and shorten its lifespan.
-
Proper Storage: If you’re storing the battery for an extended period, ensure it is kept in a dry, cool location with a charge level of around 50% to 60%. This will help preserve the battery’s health.
-
Monitor Voltage: Check the battery’s voltage periodically. The voltage should remain between 24.8V (fully charged) and 20.0V (fully discharged). If the voltage drops below 20V, recharge it immediately.
-
Clean the Terminals: Inspect the battery terminals for dirt, corrosion, or loose connections. Clean the terminals using a dry cloth or a solution of baking soda and water to prevent corrosion and ensure proper function.
-
Prevent Short Circuits: Ensure the battery terminals are insulated and avoid contact with conductive materials to prevent short circuits. Proper storage and installation are key to safety.
-
Overheating Prevention: Ensure the battery is not exposed to excessive heat. Store the battery in a well-ventilated area and avoid using it in situations that might cause it to overheat.
-
Routine Inspections: Regularly check the battery for signs of damage, leakage, or other issues. If you notice anything unusual, such as a decrease in performance, swelling, or strange odors, stop using the battery and seek professional advice.
-
Follow Manufacturer Guidelines: Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use, charging, and storage to maintain the battery’s performance and ensure warranty compliance
