Loving my dual 200ah batteries in my Transit. I needed enough depth of power to handle my van’s A/C long enough to keep my 4 search and rescue canines comfy during long events and these stand up to the challenge.

Love these batteries. Great warranty and price. Quality!!!

A couple of years ago, I purchased my first Dakota Lithium 200Ah battery for our toy hauler and I’ve never regretted it. It has far exceeded my expectations. I’ve been considering adding another one, so when I saw they were on sale I bought one and realizing I could buy 2 for almost the same price of one, I bought another the next day. So now I have 600 Ah of storage and we took the trailer out for 10 days. My gosh, if you do mostly boondocking, you will not go wrong with Dakota Lithium products!!! Also, their tech support is OUTSTANDING. Thanks DL.

Why I bought Dakota Lithium Batteries for my on-grid battery backup system.

I believe I bought the best battery available today and here is why:

1. I have a manufacturing systems background and Dakota mentions, “ISO 9001 certified engineering and quality control systems, and related tests and certifications.” I know that to make a quality product it needs to be made according to good design and manufactured consistently; the above certainly help.

2. They say they have, “Developed a better chemistry, smaller charging particles, their own, “patented lithium production process,” for more cycles. DL are 100% safe and reliable, they do not contain rare earth elements (like cobalt) or heavy metals, is non-toxic, including no lead or acid, is non-corrosive, does not off gas, requires no watering or maintenance, can be placed in any orientation, and unlike some other lithium batteries is not prone to exploding or catching fire due to lack of oxide/oxygen in the LiFePO4 chemistry.” This is all good.

3. Management Focus – they say: “We believe that quality makes the difference. And that quality is measured by lifespan – how long a battery lasts.” I say, “You get what you measure.” and their goal is aligned with mine – a long life battery that works!

4. Best battery warranty available, “11 Year Warranty against manufacturing Defects.” I value this because of 1-3, above. Without a good manufacturing process, a warraty is just a marking tool.

I bought two 12V 200Ah batteries on sale. On sale, I am convinced I also bought the best battery value on the market today!

Good luck in your battery projects,

I built a household battery powered emergency backup system last year using Dakota Lithium products. The design and build were conceptual until they weren’t. A wind storm took out our power for more than a day. My emergency system worked superbly day and night but after I analyzed the data, I realized another battery would fill the comfort zone void. So, another DL battery is a part of the bank.

My neighbors with generators endure the noise, lose power during refueling, refuel at night. My batteries are silent. I do have a small, quiet Honda to keep the batteries going during a prolonged outage but I don’t need to run it at night while we’re sleeping. I love the products and what I was able to do with them. Oh, I also purchased DL offered solar panels but haven’t installed them yet because of roof maintenance. Looking forward to retiring the generator. 😬

Lots of power awesome battery

Just installed the 3rd, 200 amp hr battery on the travel trailer. The cases are big, strong. Not concerned about wear and tear on these bad boys. Set up is a complete Victron multilplus 2 system. With 600 amp hrs of dakota Lifepro batteries, and 1200 watts of solar.
Only used once so far, but loved the initial run.
Looking forward to more testing!

Great packaging supper light weight works very well. no complaints at all with it. very happy

Wow, that was fast! Had to reframe the aft cabin birth to lift it 3.5 inches to accommodate this 3rd and final 200Ah battery. Woo-hoo. 600Ah total now. Just need to finish connecting it to the full Victron triage of equipment. 🙂
