No cobalt, no nickel, no off-gassing, no acid. The trade-off is a slightly lower cell voltage (3.2V per cell, 4 cells = 12.8V) and lower energy density than the NMC cells used in EVs. In return, you get lifespans that make NMC look disposable: 3,000 to 25,000 cycles depending on use, against NMC's 1,000 to 2,500.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiFePO4 is now widely considered safer than lead-acid.

A TITAN at the same depth gives 6,000 - roughly 15x the service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrismatic, not cylindrical\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur cells are long, flat prisms that fill the rectangular case end to end. Cylindrical cells leave gaps between every cell and are much harder to repair (lots of spot welding), so we pay the extra cost for prismatic and pass the capacity gain back to you. The aluminium cell casing also disperses heat evenly: even at full 250A BMS allowance we measured peak cell temperatures around 45°C, well inside spec (thermal runaway territory doesn't start until around 100°C). Heater mats also work better with prismatic cells - every cell sits against the heating element, rather than only the outer ring of a cylindrical pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCapacity, without the weight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuadruple the usable capacity of lead-acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatching this 180Ah in lead-acid means four Exide ER550 115Ah batteries paralleled up to 460Ah. One TITAN 180Ah replaces the lot - huge saving in space, weight and cabling, with no gassing so it can live anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe quote capacity in Wh (Watt-hours) because Ah on its own ignores chemistry. TITAN lithium delivers 100% of rated capacity. Gel manages around 90%, AGM 75%, flooded lead-acid 60%. Factor that in and a TITAN 180Ah has more than double the real-world capacity of a lead-acid battery on the same label rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e16kg.

It's the difference between a lithium battery that lasts 15 years and one that self-destructs in two. Most brands fit an off-the-shelf board with generic parameters. We don't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatched, not off-the-shelf\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur BMS is custom, with parameters tuned to the exact cell spec we use. That lets us run the cells right up to their real safe working limits without compromising protection. It's also how we pull an extra 5-10% usable capacity out of every cell (a 180Ah can show as 190Ah fully charged). We can't guarantee the bonus capacity batch to batch, but the BMS re-maps its 100% reading automatically so the app always shows what you actually have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e11 protections, all self-resetting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver-discharge, over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, short-circuit, over-temperature, under-temperature, cell balance faults and more. All protections are temporary - they either self-reset or clear the moment the battery is put back on charge. The 250A continuous current allowance on this model is class-leading thanks to premium MOSFETs, oversized heat sinks and properly sized internal cabling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual active and passive cell balancing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePassive balancing is cheap: cells bleed off to each other and that's it. Active balancing actively moves energy between cells, protecting the weakest cell from doing all the work. Most brands pick one. We run both - passive for small voltage deltas, active for larger ones. Keeps the BMS's own power draw low while still giving you the full benefit of active balancing. It's automatic, most active when charging above 3.4V per cell, and takes full effect between 90-100% SOC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelf-heating, safely charging down to -20°C\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLithium cannot be charged below 0°C without cell damage. Our built-in heater mat wraps the internal pack and kicks in automatically at around 2°C whenever there's an incoming charge current. It draws from the charger first, and if the charger can't keep up, pulls up to 3.6A from the battery itself to get cell temperature to 10°C before routing charge back to the cells. Expect roughly 20 extra minutes on your charge time in the cold. Discharge is unaffected and works down to -20°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAutomatic and user hibernation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fully discharged lithium battery left for months can be a lithium battery that doesn't come back.

All batteries lose capacity with use - the harder you work them, the faster that happens. LiFePO4 is remarkably resistant: expect a 5-10% capacity drop every decade of normal use. A brand-new 180Ah shows around 190Ah fully charged, a 10-year-old 180Ah around 180Ah, a 20-year-old 180Ah around 165Ah.
