Dakota Lithium 72V 55ah | Deep Cycle LIFEPO4 Battery | Lithium Single Battery + Free Shipping & Lifetime Customer Support

Built Dakota Lithium Battery tough, this single 72V (volt) 55Ah (amp hour) battery will power your passions from morning to night. Engineered with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology this battery has three times the power, one third the weight, and lasts 5 times longer than a set of lead acid batteries – providing exceptional lifetime value. Built as a drop in replacement for 72V electric vehicles, 72V golf carts, and 72V electric outboard motors. The exceptional energy density makes this an excellent choice for vehicles where weight is at a premium — one single 72V 55Ah Dakota Lithium battery weighs 1/5 as much as a set of lead acid batteries. Enjoy increased performance, speed, and handling for 72V golf carts, people movers, and neighborhood electric vehicles. Free 72V LiFePO4 battery charger included.

To increase your driving range link multiple units in parallel. For vehicles with higher amp motor controllers two or more batteries may be required. For motor controllers with 100A-250A two units are recommended. Motor controllers with 250A-350A three units are recommended. For example, an EZGO 72V Freedom has a 350A motor controller and requires 3 units in parallel. Most 72V golf carts can fit 3+ units in the battery compartment. For other electric vehicles measure the size of your battery compartment and compare to the length and width of the battery.

Exceptional reliability with 5X the lifespan of traditional lead acid or AGM batteries. Backed up by a best in class 11 year warranty. Go further, play harder, and last longer with Dakota Lithium.

Dakota Lithium Battery Specifications:

  • 11 YEAR WARRANTY
    World beating, best in class, eleven year manufacturer defect warranty.

  • STORAGE CAPACITY
    55 ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 55 ampere 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
    72V (not intended for wiring multiple batteries in series, 72V systems only). Can be wired in parallel up to 10 units.

  • ENERGY
    3,960 Watts (Wh)

  • TERMINALS
    M8 bolt size. Easy to adapt to different connection needs. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.)

88.1lbs (40Kg). That's 75% lighter then a lead acid battery.

SIZE
20.5” x 10.5” x 8.62 ” (521x 268 x 219 mm)

LIFECYCLES (BATTERY LIFESPAN)
Up to 80% capacity for 2,000 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.

Customer Success Stories

EG4 off-grid base kit, Happy with my purchase.

This is the first stage of my three planned purches. I got the eg4 inverter 6000 XP base kit with six 400 watt panels and the two server rack batteries. Did a little online research and followed the instructions and it got set up without any issues. Right now I'm just running it in my garage on a single outlet and have been running dual 750 watt water distillers with it. Once I get the second inverter and a bunch more panels and batteries, I plan on attaching it to my subpanel in my house that has my lights and outlets and appliances on it. Then I'll get a soft start for my AC and blower and run it on my main panel.

Easy Process, Genuine Support

Trying to pick the correct solar system for your needs can be very technical and frustrating. I wanted to thank Yvhan and the Shop Solar team for their patience and helpful attitudes through multiple calls. I feel like we were able to narrow it down to what worked for me and my family. My system works great and I couldn't be happier to have picked Shop Solar.

Off Grid Solar Purchase

I wanted to get an offgrid solar system for years but didn’t know where to start. I found Shop Solar on Facebook and decided to submit a quote. Within 24 hours I had a custom proposal that was almost half the price of the companies I had previously got quotes from. My wife and I decided to order online and the kit came in a timely manner and it was an easy install. Great company to work with!

I would like to take the time to express the outstanding service that I was provided with by Shop Solar. They provided me with all the answers to my questions, and after reviewing our quote over the phone I felt comfortable proceeding to order my kit. It’s exactly what I needed and they were there to help us over the phone when we had questions installing it. I highly recommend others in need to choose Shop Solar Kits.

Solar Kit for Mobile Work Van

As a professional videographer, I needed reliable power on the go. ShopSolar's Delta Pro and roof-mounted panels were the perfect solution. Setup was easy, and the kit included everything needed. The Delta Pro powers my cameras, lights, laptop, and a small fridge with impressive battery capacity.

Best Tech Support

You folks have been wonderful guiding me through the ins and outs of going solar. Plus your tech guys Rod and Nelson are the absolute best. They explained all the different aspects of inverters, batteries and how to keep them in top condition. Too much more to put here… but no other company has the 100% tech support you provide for your customers!

Great Experience

My experience with Shop Solar has been excellent. Before the sales, they answered all my questions to assure that I got what I needed. After the sales they continued to support me with answers and help. I had a warranty issue with a unit, and it was handled as well as possible. I would recommend them to anyone looking to go solar.
