Why Lithium?

Why Lithium Pros?  Good question.  The reasons for moving to a Lithium Pros battery are many.

1)  Light weight. Because of their 3x higher specific energy and energy density numbers, Lithium Pros batteries are inherently light and small.  They are perfect for auto racing where every grams counts.

If you are in an environment where weight is a premium such as racing, boating, flying, or anything carried by hand, Lithium Pros is the way to go.

2)  Super deep cycling ability. A Lithium Pros battery can be thought of as the ultimate deep cycling battery.  Depending on the depth of discharge, a Lithium Pros battery can do 5x as many cycles as a lead acid.  Also the Lithium Pros battery can easily handle 80% Depth of Discharge (DOD) whereas the lead acid is good only for 50% DOD.  The deeper you go, the more the Lithium Pros battery will outperform the lead acid battery.

If you are replacing a lead acid battery in two years or less due to deep cycling damage, you will save money in the long run moving to a Lithium Pros battery.

3)  Fast recharging. Lithium Pros batteries can accept charge current at up to 5x faster than a lead acid battery.  What’s more, the charge efficiency is about 97% for the Lithium Pros battery in contrast to 75% for lead acid batteries.  This means less mechanical energy is wasted in the process of recharging.
