Dakota Lithium DL+ 12V 135Ah Deep Cycle Battery

Product Description

The ultimate battery in energy density and versatility, the DL+ 12V lithium battery from Dakota Lithium with 135 amp hours (Ah) of capacity and deep cycle performance. Internal even-heat technology for use in extreme temperatures = unlimited possibilities. Start your boat’s motor, crank up the car audio, or run your trolling motor, golf cart, or any electronics — this is one battery built to power many passions. Engineered for high performance in rugged and extreme conditions, the DL+ 12V 135Ah dual purpose deep cycle battery includes DL’s internal even-heating technology that allows for charging and using the battery in extreme temperatures down to -20°F. Charges 5X faster than traditional batteries.

Exceptional energy density with 5X the power of traditional batteries. 135 Amp Hours (Ah) of capacity engineered to fit inside a group 24 battery case that is 25% smaller than a Dakota Lithium 100Ah battery.

Engineered with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology this battery has 5X the power, half the weight, and lasts 5 times longer than a lead acid battery – providing exceptional lifetime value. Built for dual purpose performance, the DL+ 12V 135Ah battery provides 1,000 cold cranking amps (CCA) and a high continuous discharge rate, making it a great choice for high amp draw applications like car audio, golf carts, or any electronics that require a lot of power at one time. In addition, the DL+ 12V 135Ah battery provides the same legendary deep cycle marine performance that Dakota Lithium batteries are known for, giving you lots of power for a long time. This is the most versatile Dakota Lithium battery and includes a terminal adapter kit compatible with most marine and deep cycle applications. Easily link in series to create 24V, 36V, or 48V systems. Lithium deep cycle battery durability, backed by an 11 Year Warranty. A Dakota Lithium 10A charger is included or a discounted upgrade to a 20 amp charger is optional to recharge in half the time.

Common Applications

• Trolling Motors
• RV Battery Upgrade
• Golf Carts & Electric Vehicles
• Link in Series for 24V, 36V, 48V
• Fish Finders, Flashers, & Boating Electronics

11 Year Warranty
Best in class, 11 year manufacturer defect warranty.

Storage Capacity
135Ah -  Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 135Ah's. 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
12.8V (Dakota Lithium batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems)

Size
9.5”L x 6.9” W x 7.75” H (242.5mm x 176mm x 197 mm).

Group Size 24
Group 24 compatible physical dimensions & 24F terminal orientation (+ terminal on right side, - terminal on left side). Cranking power & usable deep cycle capacity is much higher than a lead-acid battery of the same group size. Group 24F 24R 24H 24T compatible. M27-1000 compatible.

Energy
1620 watts hours (Wh).

Terminals
M8 connections. Includes a terminal adapter kit with automotive & marine posts that screw into the M8 bolt terminal. M8 brass bolts are also included. Easy to adapt to different connection needs. Max torque 15 ft. lbs. Max 5 ft. lbs on terminal post adapters.

Weight
27.2 lbs (12.3 Kg). 65% lighter than a SLA or lead battery.

Lifecycles (Battery Lifespan)
Up to 80% capacity for 2,500 cycles in recommended conditions. The typical automotive 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 batteries. -20°F min, +150°F max optimal operating temps (battery performs well down to -20°F). Internal even-heat technology allows for charging below 32°F. BMS high temp cut off at 167°F / 75°C. LiFePO4 batteries are not suitable for use in an engine compartment due to these temperature limitations.

Internal Even-Heat Technology
Increases performance in extreme cold. When charging the battery in temperatures below 0°C/32°F, the internal heating element will warm the cells to 0°C/32°F. This increases the lifespan, performance, and efficiency of the battery.

Discharge
270A max continuous discharge, 1000A max 2 second pulse, 900A max 5 sec pulse. 9.0V Max discharge, 11.0V Max recommended discharge. The flat discharge voltage curve provides 75% more usable capacity than a 135Ah SLA battery with the same CCA rating.

Charge
Recommend for longest life 70A or less (.5C), Peak charge acceptance 165A max for one minute, 200A max BMS cutoff. Max continuous 150A (1C). 14.4V recommended, 15V max, BMS protection from over charging will cut off at 15V. Included is a Dakota Lithium 12V 10A charger that charges at the recommended 14.4 volts is included and a discounted upgrade to a 20A charger is also available to recharge in half the time.

Alternator Charging
Peak charge acceptance 165A max for one minute, 200A max BMS cutoff. Drop in replacement for lead acid and AGM starter batteries for vehicles. Limited to a max alternator size of 150 amps or less per battery (link multiple batteries in parallel for alternators >150 Amps).

Mercury Motors Compliant
Meets Mercury Motors requirements for lithium starter batteries.

Balancing
If this battery will be connected in series, please review Dakota Lithium's Balancing Instructions.

Includes Active BMS Protection
Every Dakota Lithium battery contains a Battery Management System (BMS) that handles automatic cell balancing, low voltage cutoff (10V), high voltage cutoff (15V), short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life.

Charger Included
A Dakota Lithium 10A charger is included or a 20A charger is optional to cut your charging times in half.

Certifications
All Dakota Lithium batteries are UN38.3 certified. Dakota Lithium's cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. Dakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.
