Lithium batteries with much better performance in fast charging, long lifespan,multi-shift operations,in cold environments.It’s best choice if you want to reduce maintenance and long-term costs.
2,How to Choose a Good Lithium Battery?
Brand Reputation: Trusted suppliers (CATL, BYD, BNTBATTERY).
Compatibility: Match voltage (e.g., 24V/48V) and dimensions to your pallet jack model.
Capacity (Ah): Higher Ah = longer runtime (e.g., 400Ah for 8+ hours of use).
BMS (Battery Management System): Ensures safety (overcharge/discharge protection).
Warranty: Look for 5 years coverage.
3,How to customized lithium battery?
In addition to standard 24V/48V Electric Pallet Jack lithium batteries, we also offer customized lithium batteries solutions to perfectly match your pallet jack’s.
① Voltage & Capacity Flexibility
Non-Standard Voltages: Need 36V, 72V, or other voltages? We can design it.
Higher/Lower Capacity: From 100Ah to 1000Ah+, optimized for your runtime needs.
② Size & Shape Adaptability
Compact Designs: Fit unusual battery compartments (e.g., slim, tall, or irregular shapes).
Terminal Customization: Adjust terminal types (bolt-on, blade, or custom connectors).
③ Performance Enhancements
Ultra-Fast Charging: Batteries supporting 1C–2C charging (80% in 30–60 mins).
Extended Lifespan: High-cycle LiFePO4 cells (5,000+ cycles) for heavy-duty use.
Wide Temp Range: -22°F to 140°F (-30°C to 60°C) for cold storage or hot environments.
④ Smart Features (Optional)
Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Monitoring: Real-time tracking of voltage, temperature, and health via app.
GPS Tracking: Anti-theft and fleet management integration.
