Product Description
This all-new Dakota Lithium 24V lithium deep cycle marine battery with 60 amp hours (Ah) of capacity has three times the power, one third the weight, and lasts 5 times longer than a lead acid battery – providing exceptional lifetime value. Built for endurance in rugged environments and cold conditions. Engineered with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology, this battery has a cycle life of 3,000 – 6,000 recharge cycles (8-10 years at regular use) and is backed up by a best in class 11 year warranty. 60Ah's of capacity is optimal for a full day of fishing with 24V trolling motors, or to be linked in series or parallel for solar energy storage in the home, RV, boat, or off grid applications. Ideal for deep cycle applications in marine environments where you need lots of power for a long time. This battery is a re-engineered version of DL’s legendary 24V 50Ah single lithium battery but with 20% more capacity (Ah), 60% more max power (80 Amps max continuous discharge), 50% longer lifespan, 25% smaller size (volume) and 20% less weight. Deep cycle lithium battery durability, backed by an 11 Year Warranty. A Dakota lithium 24V 5A charger is included for free or receive a 10% discount on higher power chargers when bundled with this battery using options above.

Storage Capacity
60 ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 60 amp hours. 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
24V rated (26.6V resting voltage) - Dakota Lithium 24V marine batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems.
Energy
1536 Watt hours (Wh).
Terminals
M8 bolt terminals with hardware included. Easy to adapt to different connection needs (Max torque 15 ft. lbs).
Size
9.1 in (230mm) x 6.8 in (174mm) x 8.66 in (220mm) (LxWxH) - Group 24.
Weight
24.94 lbs (13.8Kg). That's 70% lighter than a SLA battery.
Lifecycles (Battery Lifespan)
Up to 80% capacity for 3,000 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
80A max continuous, 100A max pulse 10 second pulse. The flat discharge voltage curve provides significantly more useable capacity than AGM or lead-acid equivalents.
Charge
Must be charged with a LiFePO4 compatible charger. 25A max, 28.8V recommended, 30V max. To estimate the charging time required with different amperage chargers, see our How To Calculate Battery Charging Time article or use this Battery Charge Time Calculator.
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, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life.
Multiple charging options with this package to suit your various needs. 10% discount on charger when bundled above with this battery set.
- Dakota Lithium 24V 5A Charger - An economical option when overnight charging is acceptable.
- Dakota Lithium 24V 20A Charger - Get recharged in 1/4 the time vs the 5A charger.
