The Battle Born Story: Born in Nevada, Built for Adventure

Battle Born Batteries is a U.S.-based company headquartered in Reno, Nevada, with a simple mission: to provide top-tier, maintenance-free energy storage that keeps you exploring longer. Their name pays homage to Nevada’s state motto — “Battle Born” — reflecting resilience, independence, and innovation.

From their start, Battle Born set out to change the way people think about batteries. Rather than accepting the limitations of traditional lead-acid technology, they embraced LiFePO4 chemistry, which offers more power, longer life, lighter weight, and zero maintenance.

Why LiFePO4 Changes the Game

Most RVs, boats, and off-grid setups have long relied on lead-acid batteries — but that technology comes with serious drawbacks: limited usable capacity, short lifespan, and frequent maintenance. Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries like those from Battle Born address all of these issues.

Key advantages of LiFePO4 over lead-acid:

• Longer lifespan – Up to 3,000–5,000 cycles vs. 300–500 for lead-acid.

• Deeper discharges without damage – Use up to 100% of capacity.

• Lightweight – About half the weight of comparable lead-acid batteries.

• Maintenance-free – No watering, corrosion checks, or equalization charging.

• Consistent voltage output – More stable power delivery throughout the charge.

Spotlight on the Battle Born 100Ah 12V Lithium-Ion (LiFePO4) Battery

The flagship model — the Battle Born 100Ah 12V LiFePO4 Battery — is the most popular choice among RVers, marine enthusiasts, and off-grid homeowners. It’s a true “drop-in” replacement for standard 12V lead-acid batteries, making it one of the easiest upgrades you can make.

Core Specifications:

• Capacity: 100Ah (Amp Hours)

• Voltage: 12V

• Chemistry: LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate)

• Weight: Approximately 31 lbs

• Cycles: 3,000–5,000 (10+ years of use)

• Warranty: 10-year manufacturer warranty

Why the Battle Born 100Ah 12V LiFePO4 Is a Game-Changer

1. Incredible Lifespan

With up to 5,000 charge cycles, the Battle Born 100Ah can easily last 10–15 years, far outpacing the 3–5 year lifespan of most lead-acid batteries.

2. Built-In Battery Management System (BMS)

Every Battle Born battery includes an internal BMS that protects against overcharging, over-discharging, short circuits, and temperature extremes. This makes them virtually foolproof for everyday use.

3. Lightweight and Compact

At just over 30 pounds, it’s about half the weight of a lead-acid equivalent, making it easier to handle, install, and transport.

4. Fast Charging

LiFePO4 technology accepts higher charge rates, meaning you can recharge faster — whether from solar panels, shore power, or alternators.

5. Safe and Stable Chemistry

LiFePO4 is one of the safest lithium chemistries available. It’s non-toxic, non-flammable, and has a very low risk of thermal runaway.

Real-World Applications

One of the reasons Battle Born Batteries have such a loyal following is their versatility. The 100Ah 12V model fits seamlessly into a variety of setups:

• RVs & Camper Vans – Power lights, appliances, inverters, and even air conditioning for extended boondocking trips.

• Marine & Sailboats – Run trolling motors, navigation systems, refrigeration, and entertainment electronics without worrying about draining power.

• Off-Grid Homes & Cabins – Store solar energy for nighttime use, emergency backup, or daily operation in remote areas.

• Overlanding & Expeditions – Keep fridges, lights, and comms running in rugged environments.

Comparing Battle Born to the Competition

When shopping for lithium batteries, you’ll find a wide range of options. But what sets Battle Born apart is their combination of premium build quality, advanced BMS technology, and unmatched customer support.

Installation & Upgrade Tips

If you’re replacing a lead-acid battery with a Battle Born 100Ah, the process is typically straightforward. However, keep these tips in mind:

1. Check charger compatibility – Ensure your existing charger or converter can be set for lithium charging profiles.

2. Consider upgrading wiring – Especially if you plan to increase charge rates.

3. Plan for future expansion – LiFePO4 batteries can be wired in parallel or series for higher capacity or voltage.

4. Think about solar integration – Pairing with solar panels can maximize your off-grid potential.

Environmental Impact

Choosing LiFePO4 over lead-acid is also a greener choice. Lithium batteries are non-toxic, have a longer usable life, and reduce waste by lasting years longer before replacement is needed.

The Bottom Line: Why Battle Born Is Worth the Investment

Yes, the upfront cost of a Battle Born 100Ah 12V Lithium-Ion Battery is higher than a lead-acid equivalent, but when you factor in lifespan, maintenance savings, performance, and reliability, the long-term cost is actually lower.

If you’re serious about powering your adventures — whether that’s living off-grid, cruising open waters, or exploring backcountry trails — Battle Born Batteries deliver the freedom, dependability, and efficiency you need.
