The lithium-ion forklift battery is poised to revolutionize the materials handling industry. And when you compare the pros and cons of the lithium battery vs. lead-acid battery for powering your forklift or fleet of lift trucks, it is easy to understand why.
First, you can save your costs. Although lithium-ion forklift batteries are much more expensive than lead-acid batteries, they typically last 2-3 times longer than lead-acid batteries and can save you a lot of money in other areas, ensuring that your total cost of ownership is greatly reduced.
Secondly, the forklift lithium batteries are safer and pollution-free than lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries are cheap, but they need to be replaced almost every year and polluting the environment. And lead-acid batteries themselves are more polluting than lithium batteries. If you keep changing, it will always cause damage to the environment.
Using a forklift lithium battery also saves space and does not require a battery charging room. The lead-acid batteries need a safety and ventilation space for charging. Most companies that run multiple forklifts powered by lead-acid batteries handle the time-consuming recharging tasks by dedicating some of their valuable warehouse space to a separate, well-ventilated battery room. And the forklift lithium battery is smaller than the lead-acid.
Save charging time, 1-3 hour quick charging mode is suitable for multi-shift work, save battery replacement time and avoid safety risk.
