Overview
EXPERIENCE THE DAKOTA LITHIUM DIFFERENCE
Designed to perform even in frigid Dakota winters, the Dakota Lithium 12V 20Ah battery delivers three times the power, half the weight, and 8X the lifespan of traditional 12Ah sealed lead-acid (SLA) batteries. Engineered with advanced Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology, this battery offers exceptional durability, efficiency, and long-lasting performance.
KEY FEATURES
- Powerful & Efficient – Packs 20Ah of energy in a 12Ah SLA case, providing 3X the power and 8X the lifespan of lead-acid alternatives.
- Ultra-Lightweight & Compact – Weighs significantly less than traditional SLA batteries while maintaining the same size and terminal design for an easy drop-in replacement.
- Cold-Weather Performance – Operates down to -20°F, ensuring reliability in harsh winter conditions.
- Extended Run Time – Ideal for high-draw electronics such as Garmin fish finders, ice augers, and other power-demanding devices.
- Enhanced Features – Now includes a voltmeter, USB-A & USB-C charging ports, and standard SLA terminals for versatile connectivity.
- Long-Term Value – Outlasts and outperforms traditional 12Ah SLA batteries, making it a cost-effective and high-performance upgrade.
Recommended Charger: 12V 3A (sold separately)
Specifications
11 Year Warranty
World beating, best in class, eleven year manufacturer defect warranty.
Capacity
20 Ampere hours. Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 20 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, especially in cold temperatures. You get all the juice down to the last drop.
Voltage
12.8V
Energy
256 Watt-hours (Wh)
Terminals
F2 Terminals (spade socket). When used in salt water, or corrosive, environments we recommend applying a small amount of dielectric grease on the blades of each terminal. It helps extend the lifespan.
USB / Voltmeter
USB A & C ports provide easy charging for personal electronics. Voltmeter included for monitoring battery power levels.
Size
5.9" x 3.94" x 3.86" (151mm x 100mm x 99mm)
Weight
4.25 lbs (1.93Kg) That's 65% lighter then a SLA battery.
Lifecycles (battery lifespan)
Up to 80% capacity for 5,000 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.
Discharge
10A continuous, 20A max. Note: For small trolling motors, we recommend using our 12v 54Ah battery to maximize your time on the water
Charge
10A max, 14.4V recommended, 15V max. Please note: this battery should be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. A SLA charger may work, but will reduce performance and lifespan of the battery.
Includes active BMS protection
Contains a circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life.
Series or Parallel
BMS can support wiring these batteries in series or parallel for up to 4 units (up to 48V series or to 12V 80Ah parallel)
Certifications
All batteries are UN38 certified. Dakota Lithium's cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. Meets all US & International regulations for air, ground, and train transport.
ISO 9001:2015
Dakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.
Charger Sold Separately
This battery should be charged using a LiFePO4 compatible charger. Dakota Lithium 12V batteries should be charged at 14.4 volts. Lead acid chargers will work, but will only charge the battery to 80% of capacity.
