How does a 24V 200Ah (25.6V 210Ah) lithium battery improve forklift performance?
This battery provides stable voltage and high discharge current for consistent, powerful forklift operation. Its rapid charging capability (full charge in 2–3 hours) minimizes downtime, while lightweight construction enhances maneuverability and efficiency. The advanced BMS ensures optimal energy use, real-time monitoring, and automatic protection, supporting long shifts and multi-shift operations.
What are the advantages of lithium over lead-acid batteries for forklifts?
Lithium batteries offer 5–10 times longer cycle life, zero maintenance, 50% higher energy efficiency, and much faster charging than lead-acid. They are lighter, do not require watering or ventilation, and provide consistent voltage output throughout the discharge cycle. This results in lower total cost of ownership, greater safety, and improved productivity.
