A lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is an advanced battery technology that uses lithium ions as a key component of its electrochemistry. During a discharge cycle, lithium atoms in the anode are ionized and separated from their electrons. The lithium ions move from the anode and pass through the electrolyte until they reach the cathode, where they recombine with their electrons and electrically neutralize.
Yes. ES POWER battery features thermally safe and long-life Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) cells. BSLBATT battery is also IP 67 rated and suitable for applications in humid and wet environments.
Yes, lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time. Unlike lead acid batteries, it won’t damage the battery to utilize opportunity charging, which means a user could plug the battery in during a lunch break to top off the charge and finish their shift without the battery getting too low.
Only store your battery when charged between 20-80% SOC, in specified environmental conditions for no more than 6 months.
It is recommended to perform preventative maintenance and checks on your battery every 6 months.

ES POWER batteries can be used around 3,500 life cycles. Battery design life is around 10 years, and we offer you 5 years warranty.
Our LiFePO4 batteries are considered to be safe, non-flammable and non-hazardous for superior chemical and mechanical structure.
They can also withstand harsh conditions, be it freezing cold, scorching heat or rough terrain. When subjected to hazardous events, such as collision or short-circuiting, they won’t explode or catch fire, significantly reducing any chance of harm. If you’re selecting a lithium battery and anticipate use in hazardous or unstable environments, LiFePO4 is likely be your best choice.
Yes, ES POWER Lithium batteries are ideal for series and/or parallel connections. Should you be unfamiliar with wiring batteries in series or parallel, please contact us.
LiFePO4 batteries should be “topped off” after each use. For greatest longevity, We recommend not fully discharging the battery or overcharging it.
Q: How to choose the right ES POWER charger for my forklift battery?
A: Match the charger’s output voltage & current rating to your battery’s specifications (voltage and Ah capacity). Consult your ES POWER manual or representative.
Q: How to safely connect my forklift battery to an ES POWER charger?
A: Ensure the forklift is off. Connect the charger clamps firmly: RED (+) to battery positive, BLACK (-) to battery negative. Verify polarity.
Q: Why must I connect the charger clamps in the correct order (positive first)?
A: Connecting positive first minimizes sparking risk near the battery, reducing the chance of explosion from hydrogen gas.
Q: How to determine the best location for my ES POWER forklift charger?
A: Place in a well-ventilated, cool, dry area away from sparks, flames, and corrosive materials, with easy access to batteries.
Q: Why is proper ventilation crucial for forklift battery charging?
A: Charging releases explosive hydrogen gas. Ventilation dissipates this gas and prevents dangerous accumulation.
Q: Why should I use only ES POWER chargers or approved compatible models?
A: Using incorrect chargers can severely damage batteries (overcharging, undercharging), void warranties, and create safety hazards.
Q: How to maintain my ES POWER forklift charger for optimal performance?
A: Keep it clean and dry. Regularly inspect cables and clamps for damage. Follow the recommended service schedule in the manual.
Q: How to interpret common error codes on my ES POWER charger?
A: Refer to the specific error code definitions in your ES POWER charger’s user manual for troubleshooting steps.
Q: Why does my ES POWER charger automatically stop charging?
A: It features automatic shut-off when the battery reaches full charge to prevent overcharging and damage, ensuring safety and longevity.
Q: How to ensure my ES POWER charger warranty remains valid?
A: Follow all installation, operation, and maintenance instructions in the manual. Use the charger only with compatible batteries and avoid misuse.
Q: How to calculate the required capacity for roadside emergencies?
A: Sum the watt-hours (Wh) of all devices (W × hours of use). ES POWER recommends ≥1000Wh units for jump-starts, winches, and medical gear.
Q: Why is peak/surge power critical for rescue operations?
A: Heavy-duty tools (winches, air compressors) demand 2-3× their rated wattage. ES POWER stations include Boost Mode for safe surge handling.
Q: How to safely jump-start vehicles using an ES POWER station?
A: Connect cables to the 12V/10A DC port only. Ensure battery level ≥20% and never exceed the rated current (e.g., 120W max).
Q: Why does ES POWER use LiFePO4 battery technology?
A: LiFePO4 offers 3,500+ cycles, extreme temperature resilience (-20°C–60°C), and zero explosion risk – critical for roadside safety.
Q: How to recharge during extended field operations?
A: ES POWER stations support triple-input charging: solar (800W max), 12V/24V car outlets, and AC. Solar + DC refills 80% in 1.5 hours.
Q: Why prioritize multiple output ports?
A: Simultaneously power medical devices (AC), comms gear (USB-C PD 100W), and lighting (DC). ES POWER units include 10+ ports for mission flexibility.
Q: How to operate in extreme temperatures?
A: Store ES POWER stations at 50% charge. LiFePO4 batteries operate at -20°C–60°C; avoid charging below 0°C to preserve lifespan.
Q: Why are industry safety certifications non-negotiable?
A: Certifications mandate 12+ protections (short-circuit, over-voltage, etc.). ES POWER complies with global standards to prevent thermal incidents.
Q: How to extend runtime for critical rescue devices?
A: Use DC ports for low-power gear (e.g., radios) to conserve energy. ES POWER’s expandable battery system adds up to 18kWh capacity.
Q: Why ignore “mAh” marketing claims?
A: True capacity is measured in Wh (Volts × Ah). ES POWER labels actual Wh ratings to prevent runtime miscalculations during rescues.
