Description
Introducing the All-New DL+ 12V 320Ah Battery: Bigger, Stronger, More Powerful
Prepare for the toughest conditions with the new DL+ 12V 320Ah battery, the latest in Dakota Lithium’s line of high-performance batteries. Built for off-grid adventures in your RV, extended ocean voyages, and powerful off-grid systems, this battery is compact, yet packed with 320 Amp Hours of capacity in a waterproof Group-31 size case. That’s 6X the usable power of a single Group-31 AGM battery, plus up to 1,000 cold-cranking amps (CCA) for engine-starting power, making it the ultimate single-battery solution for boats, RVs, and vehicles requiring both house and starting power.
Key Features:
- -Superior Power: 320 Amp Hours of capacity and 1,000 CCA for reliable power, whether off-grid or starting engines.
- -Compact Design: Fits in a Group-31 size footprint with dimensions of 13.31″L x 7.24″W x 10″H (338mm X 183mm X 254mm), though the wider top L: 15.04″ x W: 7.60″ x H: 9.96 (382mm x 193mm x 253mm) may require checking battery box compatibility.
- -Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) Technology: Delivers 6X the power and lasts up to 8 times longer than typical AGM batteries, with a lifespan of 5,000 charge cycles.
- -Durable Construction: Reinforced with a rugged, marine-spec plastic case for enhanced durability, making it ideal for marine, solar, RV, and electric vehicle applications.
- -Waterproof and Built to Last: Designed for extreme environments, offering unmatched performance and an 11-year warranty for long-term value.
-Optimized for: Marine/boating, solar energy, RVs, and electric vehicles.
For those seeking maximum energy density in a compact, durable design, the DL+ 12V 320Ah is the ultimate power solution. Whether you’re exploring off-grid or sailing the open seas, this battery provides the performance and reliability you need.
Recommended Charger: 12V 50A (sold separately)
Technical Specifications
-
Warranty:
Best in Class 11 Year Warranty. That is 10 years more warranty then most lead acid batteries.
-
Storage Capacity:
320 Ampere hours (Ah). Dakota Lithium batteries provide consistent power for all 320 Amp hours. DL LiFePO4 batteries have a flat voltage curve, which means they have a steady power output as the battery discharges. The power output will not dramatically drop like similar sized SLA batteries. You get all the juice down to the last drop.
-
Cold Cranking Amps:
1,000 CCA is adequate to start most boat and large vehicle engines
-
Energy:
3840Wh
-
Voltage:
12.8 Volts (Dakota Lithium 12V batteries can be used in series for up to 48V systems)
-
Size:
L: 15.04" x W: 7.60" x H: 9.96" (382mm x 193mm x 253mm) Measurements are to the top of the terminals and includes side handles. **See notes in the product description for battery tray and battery box sizing**
-
Group Size 31 & 8D:
Group Size 31 and Marine 8D size compatible
-
Weight:
65 lbs (29.5Kg)
-
Lifespan/Lifecycles:
Up to 80% capacity for 5,000 cycles in recommended conditions, 70% capacity at 5,000 recharge cycles. Half-life (50% capacity) of 6,000 - 7,000 re-charge cycles (Typical SLA has 500 cycles). Backed up by an 11 year warranty.
-
Discharge:
Max continuous 200A, 300A for 60 seconds, 1000A for 1 second.LiFePO4 chemistry has a flat voltage curve, meaning this battery will maintain a voltage of >12V for the full discharge cycle in most applications.
-
Charge:
<200 A standard charge, 300A max charge current for <60 sec. 14.4V Recommended, 14.6V Max. A SLA charger may work, but will reduce performance and lifespan of the battery. Even heat technology allows for charging below 32'F. Internal even-heat technology allows for charging below 0°C/32°F
-
Operating temperature:
Ideal for rugged & harsh environments. Much better than SLA or other lithium batteries. -4°F to 176°F (-20°C to 80°C) max optimal operating temps (battery performs well down to -20°F). Internal even-heat technology allows for charging below 32°F. BMS high temp cut off at 167°F / 75°C..
-
INTERNAL EVEN-HEAT TECHNOLOGY:
Increases performance in extreme cold. When charging the battery in temperatures below 0°C/32°F DL's internal heating element will warm the cells to 0°C/32°F. This increases the lifespan, performance, and efficiency of the battery.
-
Safe & Reliable:
Includes active BMS protection circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and high temperature protection for increased performance and longer life
-
Terminals and Posts:
M8 bolt size included. (Max torque 15 ft. lbs.) (Max 5 ft. lbs. on terminal post adapters)
-
Marine Grade & Waterproof:
Max IP65 water resistance rating. Appropriate for marine environments, not submersible.
-
Certifications:
All batteries are UN38 certified. Dakota Lithium's cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. Meets all US & International regulations for air, ground, train, & marine transport.
-
ISO 9001:2015:
Dakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.
-
Recommended Charger:
12V 50A charger. (Sold Separate) Dakota Lithium 12V batteries should be charged at 14.4 volts. Lead acid chargers will work, but will only charge the battery to 80% of capacity.
