You get all the juice down to the last drop.

The DL 54Ah battery is built with Dakota Lithium's legendary LiFePO4 cells. 5,000+ recharge cycles (roughly 10 year lifespan at daily use) vs. 500 for other lithium batteries or lead acid. Optimal performance down to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit (for winter warriors). Plus twice the power of lead-acid batteries at half the weight.

Great service and battery

Timothy Young

Just received the battery yesterday I ordered it on the 22nd of April missed a club tournament and Anya told me that the battery was shipped when it wasn’t very disappointed in the customer service but the battery is an excellent product I decided to keep it and canceled the one I ordered from battle born.

Superb product.

Tony Matthews

So far I have been very pleased with my purchase of the Dakota 54AH battery. The compact size made it a breeze to install in the rear well of my Triton and the performance has been just as promised. I look forward to many years of trouble-free service.

Kathy

Tried batteries for the first time since purchasing, so much lighter than regular batteries for the bass boat. Ran the trolling motor with ease.

Dickie Borel

Very light awesome packaging during shipping. Very pleased

Gary Newcomb

Excellent product.

Casey Riney

Works awesome, this battery is a beast. I’m using it as a trolling motor on my Sea Eagle SUP 126. Would highly recommend this battery, last all day and only half of the size and weight of standard 12V batteries!
