Whether you're a new comer to using auxiliary batteries or a long time user, you'd of heard of the many benefits lithium auxiliary batteries have over the old lead acid and AGM deep cycle type batteries.

The old technology AGM deep cycle batteries you would know are really only half the capacity they state. I mean if you purchased a 120AH AGM or lead acid the most you'd want to draw from the battery would be 50% (60amps) some experts say only 30% before you irreparably damage the battery and loose storage capacity. Not so with our 12V 120AH Lithium Water & Dust Proof Battery.

Perfect for applications where there is a high probability that the battery will get wet and or loaded with dust like under the bonnet of a 4x4, in a battery box outside your camper trailer or in your boat. As the battery has an inbuilt management systems called a BMS there is electronics involved. Electronics and water is a bad mix unless the electronics is made to withstand moisture.

The iTECh 120X is IP67 rated and can be fully submerged in 1m of water for up to 30 minutes.

Lithium batteries are mostly superior in every way to the old and now outdated deep cycle, AGM and lead acid batteries. NOTE: NEVER use the iTECH120X Lithium Battery for starting a motor vehicle or any other purpose with higher current use than the battery specifications or you will damage the battery and void warranty.

Lithium batteries ability to accept charge is greater, up to 95% of the actual charge can be directly absorbed and their ability to actually provide power is about double. The environmental operating temperature is higher, the weight is lower (about half the weight)and you cannot deplete their charge to a degree that will damage the battery due to the inbuilt battery management system (BMS).

In years gone by Lithium batteries created a challenge for their use because there are very strict guidelines for the way they need to be charged and monitored....enter the BMS. The BMS will control the charge for optimum performance.

With the built-in BMS the 12V output will automatically be cut off when the battery drops to around 11% of its rated capacity and therefore will not effect the overall capacity. It will charge right back up again tie after time after time. In fact our batteries are rated to charge up to a minimum of 2000 times.

With the built-in BMS you can relax and not have to continually keep an eye on the state of charge of your battery. As you may have experienced with the old AGM batteries like I have, if you're not vigilant and for example forget to switch off your 12V fridge when not in use. Winter can have many hours before your roof top solar starts to charge and only then for a handful of winter hours, or there's been many days of overcast skies etc then chances are your old AGM battery is beyond repair. Too bad if you only installed it a month or so ago right?

Also the iTECH120X has a higher temperature rating. If you need to install it under your cars bonnet you can however please read the specifications for operating temperatures.

If you have an existing AGM or Lead aid deep cycle battery of the same size or larger than the iTECH120X that you want to replace then simply pull out your old battery and drop in the iTECH120X.

The iTECH120X now gives you the most advanced battery technology available in the world and it's ready for you to start enjoying the immediate benefits.

Additional Information

Do you use a 12v/240v inverter?

This is where the iTECH120X battery excels. Let me explain... Most lithium batteries give about the same maximum peak current output as their storage capacity.

For example, if you have an 80Amp battery the maximum you current (in amps) you can pull at any point in time is 80amps or in the case of a 100AH battery 100amps. With the Itech 120AH battery you can pull a massive 2 second surge current of up to 380amps and a consistent 150 amp load until the BMS cuts off power when you've drawn it's maximum of 107Amps.

What's the big deal? Running a 240V inverter can suck a massive load from a 12V battery.

Let's say you are using a 3,000W inverter then you plug in an electric motor rated at 1200W. Using Ohms Law E=IR (Watts = Volts x Amps) Watts/volts=Amps 1200/12=100 amps (plus losses up to 20%) will be drawn from the battery

That means your 1200W motor will pull at least 100 amps from your battery when running but it's start up power consumption could be double! Meaning 2400W or 200 plus amps. Normal Lithium batteries cannot supply that. Most good quality Lithium batteries with internal BMS would cut supply so the battery would not melt down.

iTECH120X ability to provide up to a 380 Amp surge (for up to 2 seconds) is a BIG DEAL. Lesser quality lithium batteries just cannot compare.

Weight a minute..... our iTECH10X is even lighter than it's predecessor weighing in at just 12kg!

How cost effective are Lithium versus old AGM batteries?

Please do your own calculations to double check our calculations here...The iTECH120X can be cycled more than 2000 times meaning from full to less than 12% over 2000 times which is around 3MW (3 Mega Watts) compared to a lead acid or deep cycle battery only around 562,500 Watts IF the battery is kept within its temperature range and operating guidelines.

In dollars per watt terms my calculations are iTECH120X 12v 120Ah @3KWatt per dollar ($999) compared to a Lead acid battery/AGM 12V 120 Amp Hour @2.25KW per dollar ($250 battery cost and that is IF it lasts more than 3 years!)

Prices of Lithium batteries have dropped substantially and the technology has improved to such a degree where it is now practical to use in your caravan, camper trailer, camper van, RV, take camping or in your 4WD.

Living off-grid? The iTECH120X can be connected in parallel with unlimited number giving as much capacity as you need.

You can also series them up to a maximum of 2 giving 24V output. So in theory you can have more than 16 joined together in series/parallel giving a massive 24v with >960AH to a combined total of >23Kw of battery storage (usable >20.5kw)

You won't break your back carrying these either. The iTECH120X weighs in at just 12Kg. That's even less than half of a comparable lead acid battery.
