What are the Advantages of Li-ION Batteries for Forklifts?

Here are five reasons why you should consider choosing  Li-ION battery forklift.

1. Increased Productivity

In material handling, we understand time is money and with  Li-ION batteries, you won't have to worry about getting the job done.  Li-ION batteries require less time to charger, which don't have to rest before they can be used again. Since  Li-ION batteries maintain a higher, more stable voltage over the course of a shift, you will also experience higher forklift performance which can translate to increased throughput.

2.Helpful Tips:

Keep the battery away from elevated temperatures to avoid causing stress and changing capacity capabilities.

3. Reduced Downtime

Li-ION batteries can be opportunity-charged, or recharged throughout the shift when necessary, eliminating the headache of battery swapping, thus increasing your fleet’s performance and reducing downtime. On average, a  Li-ION battery will last two to four times longer than a lead acid battery.

4. Virtually Maintenance Free

Frequently having to maintain your lead acid battery can be time consuming and costly. However,  Li-ION batteries are virtually maintenance free and don't require constant watering, equalize charging, or cleaning.
