Red Pole Energy lithium conversions
Lead-acid vs lithium
Slide to your charging habit and see how long each pack type typically lasts.
3× per week
Lead-acid (Deltec-type)≈ 3.8 yrs
Red Pole LiFePO4≈ 19.2 yrs
At this usage, one lithium pack can outlast roughly 5.1 lead-acid sets and drops about 105 kg off the cart.
Indicative estimates using typical industry cycle ratings. Real life depends on depth of discharge, terrain and care. Eddie will spec your exact pack.
