How Much Does the Deespaek 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery Weigh Compared to Alternatives?
At 22-24 lbs, the Deespaek LiFePO4 battery is 58% lighter than a 130Ah AGM battery (54 lbs) and 40% lighter than gel counterparts. This weight reduction stems from lithium-ion’s higher energy density (140-160 Wh/kg vs. 30-50 Wh/kg in lead-acid), enabling equivalent capacity in smaller form factors. The aluminum alloy casing contributes only 18% of total weight versus 35% in traditional batteries.
Battery Type | Weight (lbs) | Energy Density (Wh/kg) |
---|---|---|
LiFePO4 | 22-24 | 140-160 |
AGM | 54 | 30-50 |
Gel | 38 | 35-55 |
This substantial weight advantage translates directly to improved fuel efficiency in mobile applications. For electric vehicles, every 100 lbs removed increases range by 1-2%. Marine users can achieve better hull speed efficiency, while RV owners benefit from reduced axle weight strain. The Deespaek’s weight profile also simplifies installation – two technicians can lift what previously required mechanical assistance, cutting labor costs by an average of 35%.
What Design Features Improve the Deespaek Battery’s Portability?
Ergonomic handles support single-person transport, with a 3D-ABS grip system rated for 200 lbs tensile strength. The IP67-rated chassis withstands 15G shock loads and 5Hz-2000Hz vibrations, meeting UN38.3 transportation standards. Stackable design allows vertical/horizontal configurations in 0.5U increments (22mm height units), saving 40% space versus flooded lead-acid setups.
The dual-stage handle design combines thermoplastic elastomers with stainless steel reinforcement cores, tested through 10,000 lift cycles without deformation. Internal cell arrangements use hexagonal packing to maximize space utilization – 94% of the casing volume contains active materials compared to 78% in conventional designs. Vibration damping is achieved through silicone-impregnated separators that absorb 92% of harmonic frequencies between 50-500Hz, critical for off-road applications.
“The Deespaek’s weight-to-capacity ratio sets a new benchmark. By using ultrasonic-welded cell interconnects instead of traditional bus bars, they’ve achieved a 17% weight reduction without compromising 200A continuous discharge capability. This makes it particularly transformative for aerial drones requiring >3hr flight times.”

FAQ
- Can this battery power a 2000W inverter?
- Yes, with 100Ah capacity and 200A continuous discharge (2C rate), it supports 2400W inverters (12V×200A). Runtime depends on load: 30 minutes at 2000W, 5 hours at 400W.
- Does cold weather reduce charging efficiency?
- Below 0°C, charging current auto-limits to 0.2C (20A) unless the self-heating system activates. From -20°C to 0°C, full charge requires 8-12 hours versus 5 hours at 25°C.
- Are special chargers required?
- Use LiFePO4-compatible chargers with 14.2-14.6V absorption voltage. The built-in BMS protects against mismatched chargers, but optimal performance requires CC/CV profile with 0.5-1C charge rate (50-100A).
The Deespaek 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery redefines portable power through advanced material science and intelligent engineering. Its 24-lb frame delivers equivalent energy to 130Ah lead-acid systems while offering installation flexibility, extreme environment operation, and 10-year design lifespan. These features position it as the optimal solution for applications where weight savings directly correlate with operational efficiency.
