Description

The MultiPlus is a combined inverter and charger in one elegant package. Due to its versatility, programmable settings, and rich features we have found the Multiplus to be the ultimate in off grid micro-functionality – like vans, RVs, boats, and off-grid homes. Its many features include a true sine wave inverter, adaptive charging, hybrid PowerAssist technology, plus multiple system integration features. The unique power assist allows for safe charging using generators, shore power, or other power sources and the uninterrupted energy supply (UPS) function means no downtime in the case of power disruption (it seamlessly transitions to battery power). The 2,000 watt inverter allow you to use 12V Dakota Lithium batteries to power household electronics that require 120V AC (the wall plug in your home) and is a good size to run a medium sized TV, stereo, fridge, small kitchen appliances, computers, or other home electronics. Users with larger systems can add on the Digital Multi-Control panel for easier remote access. Please note: the recommenced battery size for this inverter is 200 Ah in Dakota Lithium batteries or larger.

FAQ

  • Twice the Power?

    Yes! Here at Dakota Lithium we build all of our batteries with lithium iron phosphate technology which has many distinct advantages over traditional batteries. Including 60% less weight, a charging speed that is up to 5X faster, and a significantly longer lifespan (5-10 years longer on average). One of the most noticeable advantages however is the flat voltage curve. Unlike a lead acid battery where the voltage drops as you use the battery a Dakota Lithium battery has a steady voltage for 99% of the battery’s charge. That means you get all the power down to the last drop and double the usable power of traditional batteries.

  • Are Lithium Batteries Safe?

    Dakota Lithium batteries are 100% safe & reliable. Our signature chemistry, Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4), does 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 other lithium batteries will not explode or catch fire. In addition, each Dakota Lithium battery is protected from over heating, over charging, and short circuiting, by a battery management system (BMS) microchip that also extends the lifespan and is contained in a rugged, waterproof case (although enough water can conduct electricity between the terminals, so don’t submerse the battery). For best performance & reliability we recommend using a LiFePO4 charger.    

  • How do I charge a lithium battery?

    Dakota Lithium LiFePO4 batteries perform best when charged by a LiFePO4-compatible battery charger. LiFePO4 batteries require a different charging profile and voltage requirements compared to traditional battery chargers. Chargers designed for different chemistries may work, but they may not charge a Dakota Lithium battery to full capacity. It’s important to select a charger that has a LiFePO4-compatible constant-current constant-voltage (CC/CV) charging profile, provides the correct charging voltage for your battery, does not exceed the charge current (amp) for the battery, and has a charge indicator LED to let you know when the battery is fully charged. You can find more information on How to Charge Dakota Lithium and LiFePO4 batteries on our website. If you need help finding a compatible charger for your Dakota Lithium battery, or if you want to check your current charger compatibility, please reach out to our support team.

  • Can I use or charge my Dakota Lithium battery in cold weather?

    Yes—with the right setup. Dakota Lithium batteries will generally safely discharge between -4°F and 120°F (-20°C to 49°C), making them a trusted choice for ice fishing, winter camping, and off-grid use in northern climates. However, charging below 32°F (0°C) is not recommended unless your battery has internal heating. Charging while frozen can damage the cells and reduce lifespan. For cold-weather charging, we strongly recommend choosing a battery with Internal Even-Heat Technology, such as the DL+ 12V 135Ah, DL+ 12V 320Ah, or the 12V 100Ah with heating. Don’t just look for the battery model—make sure it includes this feature. For added protection in extreme cold, use insulation or store the battery in a climate-controlled area. These are general guidelines. Every battery has its own operating specs, so check your specific model’s limits and, if you’re unsure, reach out to us at support@dakotalithium.com

  • Do You Have a Military Discount?

    Yes. We offer a 5% military discount for active-duty and veterans of the U.S. or Canadian armed forces. Use code DakotaMilitary at checkout for 5% off. If you email us verification, we’ll add an additional 5% off, for 10% total. In your order notes, include your branch (or unit). A lot of veterans and pilots work at Dakota Lithium, including one of our founders who flew F-16s. If you want to share your story, we’d love to hear it.The code runs on the honor system, so please only use it if you served. Veterans organizations: if you want to set up a group purchase at wholesale pricing, contact sales@dakotalithium.com.Donations: please submit our philanthropy application form available here.

I bought two units. Pretty impressive pieces of technology. The more I read online of their capabilities the more impressed I became. The manual is pretty basic and unimpressive. I was led to believe the programming for my purposes was via the units' dip switches. What I wish I knew before the purchase is they require software programming to enable two or more units to sync for your intended purpose. By default they're set to standalone 120V operation. In my case I wanted 240V split-phase ops so I need to set that up via software with the two 120V units 180 degrees out of phase. You need to download the free Victron software but also you need the Victron Energy Interface MK3-USB (VE.Bus to USB) unit. With taxes the unit's about $77 USD. I'm still waiting on it from another vendor (didn't see it on DL's site) but, in the meantime, I'm getting my programming education from Victron and some You Tubers, I don't see any reason why I'll change my rating here. Another benefit of programming is enabling the use of a small output generator. The software enables limiting the inverter's generator current draw to that supplied by the generator. You supplement the generator's load supply by drawing from the batteries as the load increases past the generator's capacity. During light loading the Victron unit recharges the batteries. Single, split, and 3 phase operations are just three modes available. For my mission, this does everything plus!
