Mastervolt, has announced the arrival of three new Lithium-Ion batteries – the MLI Ultra 12/3000, the MLI Ultra 12/6000 and the MLI Ultra 24/6000. The new batteries will be manufactured at a new dedicated production plant that Mastervolt has recently opened to meet the growing demand for powerful Lithium-Ion batteries across several markets.
Mastervolt’s engineers have developed these larger capacity batteries to be deep-cycle domestic supply batteries for use onboard marine vessels and in mobile applications to provide more power, over a longer period of time, while taking up less space and weight.
Lithium-Ion batteries are known for their high energy density, offering fast charging, and savings in volume and weight compared to traditional lead-acid batteries. These new models are no exception as they provide 20% more density and 15% more capacity in Amp hours, and a greater battery cycle life as a result, compared to Mastervolt’s previous largest models.
Available in 12 volt for the MLI Ultra 3000 and both 12 volt and 24 volt for the MLI Ultra 6000, the new additions to Mastervolt’s range offer an un-matched energy-to-weight ratio weighing 20% less than previous models. The MLI Ultra 3000 weighs just 25.4 kilograms and the MLI Ultra 6000 impressively stays under 50 kilograms at 46.4 kilograms, making the MLI Ultra 24/6000 Lithium-Ion battery a suitable replacement for two 12/200 Ah lead-acid gel batteries in series to provide 24 volt) weighing 140 kilograms – a reduction of almost 100 kilograms.
The new Mastervolt MLI Ultra 3000 and MLI Ultra 6000 both have a realistic lifespan of over 3,500 cycles and can safely use up to 80% of their capacity before needing to be recharged, offering five times more energy storage than lead acid batteries, which can only safely use up to 50% of their capacity before needing a charge. The MLI Ultra 3000 and MLI Ultra 6000 can be recharged within 60 minutes.
As with the entire Mastervolt Lithium-Ion battery range, the MLI Ultra 3000 and MLI Ultra 6000 feature a unique Battery Management System (BMS) that ensures the battery can be safely and correctly charged.
