Forklift Lithium Battery — 24 V / 48 V / 80 V LiFePO4 Traction Packs

Drop-in replacements for lead-acid traction batteries in counterbalance, reach and pallet trucks. Opportunity charging, 3,500+ cycles, zero watering, and a footprint that matches your existing compartment.

  • 24 V · 48 V · 80 V
  • 200–600 Ah
  • 3,500+ cycles
  • Opportunity charging
  • Zero maintenance
  • UN38.3 · CE · IEC

Why switch

Lead-acid traction batteries are the most expensive part of the shift

Watering, equalising, spare packs, charging rooms with ventilation and hydrogen extraction — all of it disappears with a lithium pack that charges during breaks.

Opportunity charging

Charge in 20–30 minute windows. One battery covers a full shift instead of two or three lead-acid packs.

No maintenance

No water topping, no acid spills, no equalising charges, no battery-room ventilation requirement.

Constant power

Full performance at 20% state of charge — lift speed and travel speed do not fade through the shift.

Energy savings

About 30% less energy per charge cycle and faster charging at high efficiency.

BMS + telematics

CAN bus reporting on SOC, temperature and faults; optional fleet dashboard over Wi-Fi or 4G.

Cold-store capable

Discharge down to −20 °C with heater options for freezer warehouse duty.

Inside the pack

Cell quality decides the total cost of ownership

Gotion LFP27175200 105Ah 3.2V prismatic LiFePO4 cells used in XINGYAN forklift traction batteries

Gotion cells, matched into packs

  • Gotion High-Tech A-grade prismatic cells (105 Ah, 150 Ah, 230 Ah platforms)
  • Capacity and internal resistance sorted so the weakest cell does not limit the pack
  • Steel case with forklift-grade vibration protection and IP-rated connectors
  • BMS with CAN bus to the truck, plus optional fleet telematics
  • Spare BMS boards and cells stocked for after-sales support

FAQ

Forklift Lithium Battery — Buyer Questions

Yes — we quote against the lead-acid battery compartment dimensions and counterweight, and supply the same footprint with the correct connector (Anderson / REMA / DIN), so the truck keeps its centre of gravity and stays in balance.

Yes. LiFePO4 accepts opportunity charging — the operator tops up the battery during breaks and lunch instead of swapping a pack. There is no memory effect and no gassing.

3,500 cycles at 80% DOD, typically 8–10 years on one shift per day — compared with 3–5 years for a lead-acid traction battery, with zero watering or equalising.

Generally a lithium pack of 60–70% of the lead-acid Ah rating gives the same runtime, because lithium delivers full capacity at high discharge rates and can be discharged deeper. We simulate duty cycles on request.

Yes — matched high-frequency chargers are quoted with the battery. An existing lead-acid charger cannot be used.

UN38.3, CE, IEC 62619 and a compliance file covering BMS safety functions. Forklift installations also need a site risk assessment, and we supply the documentation package for that.
