Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries are among the most advanced energy storage solutions for electric vehicles, especially electric golf carts. Renowned for their safety, long lifespan, and energy efficiency, these batteries are a key component in enhancing the performance and durability of Mastiff electric golf carts.

Technical Features of LiFePO4 Batteries

  1. Chemical Composition and Safety
    • Cathode Material: Lithium Iron Phosphate is thermally and chemically stable, increasing safety under high temperatures and challenging conditions.
    • Low Fire Risk: Unlike lithium-ion batteries, LiFePO4 batteries are resistant to thermal runaway and provide safe usage even under overcharging conditions.
  2. Energy Density
    • Capacity: LiFePO4 batteries deliver an energy density of 90-160 Wh per kilogram, ensuring reliable operation of electric golf carts over long distances.
    • Efficiency: Achieves up to 95% efficiency during charge and discharge cycles, minimizing energy loss.
  3. Long Lifespan
    • Charge Cycles: With 2,000 to 5,000 full charge cycles, LiFePO4 batteries last up to five times longer than other battery types.
    • Deep Discharge Capability: Allows safe discharge of up to 80-90% capacity, making them ideal for daily use.
  4. Fast Charging Capability
    • Can safely charge at high currents, enhancing operational efficiency, especially for vehicles with intensive use.
    • Charging Time: Typically provides a full charge in 2-4 hours.
