SMART LITHIUM BATTERY

How smart are we talking?

They have a built-in brain.

Referred to as a Battery Management System (BMS). These batteries protect themselves from surges, high and low temps, over and undercharging issues, and even have built-in Bluetooth capabilities to communicate directly with you via your phone!

MADE FOR CANADA'S WINTER

Good to -20ºC (-4ºF) with automatic low temperature disconnects so you will never have to worry about ruining a battery again.

They come with 7 year warranty and and tested to last a rediculous 4000-8000 cycles. That's 10-20 years of daily cycles.

HEATED vs. NON HEATED

The exact same, grade A LiFePO4 cells, but with the added benefit of internal heaters. If you plan on charging up in negative temperatures the heated option is for you.

The heaters will never drain your battery as they only kick on when the sense sufficient charge current.

Key Features & Benefits:

Bluetooth - Check the health of your battery, anywhere, at any time, right from your smart phone.
Battery Management System - Also referred to as the brain of the battery, the built-in BMS protects your cells from excessive currents and short circuits.
Temperature Control - The built-in low-temperature sensor protects the battery in extreme temperatures.
Over Charging and Discharging Protection - Another awesome built-in BMS feature.
Options - Can be connected in a series for 24V or 36V or 48V battery bank, or connect in parallel for larger capacity.
Long-Lasting - A ridiculous 4000-8000 cycles.
Only 47.6 lbs - Keeping your loaded weight to a minimum.
Serviceable Case - Just as easy to work on as they are to use.
7-Year Warranty - Because these batteries are expected to last!

FAQ

Yes. The BMS inside the battery will prevent charging below 0°C in order to protect the cells. It will allow the battery to discharge in freezing temperatures. If you need to charge the battery in freezing temperatures then we recommend the heated versions.

The lowest safe storage temperature is -6°C. For any temperatures below this, you should bring them inside or add a heating pad of some sort. If a heating pad runs out of power and the battery falls below -6°C, damage may occur.

No they are likely too big to fit into standard boxes. Many people put them in tool boxes or any enclosed unit that protects them from the elements. The metal case units are not fully waterproof while the plastic case (marine version) are 100% waterproof.

Unfortunately this is not an easy question. If you're charger has an equalize charge voltage that is greater than 14.6 volts then it CANNOT be used. Your total charge amperage should not exceed 50 amps per battery. If you have multiple batteries in parallel then you can combine the max charge amperage. Optimal absorption voltage is 14.4-14.6V and float voltage of 13.6-13.8V.

Yes. SOK batteries can be installed in any configuration except for upside-down.

The batteries have a 7 year manufacturer warranty. If you are having issues with the battery we are here to help. In the rare case of a warranty claim we will ship you a new battery and deal with the claim with SOK. The 7-year warranty covers anything that fails or doesn't stand up to the manufacturers' specs, and includes both the cells inside and the BMS.

I went from 150 usable amps of agm to 412 amps of lithium. 2 days of continuous power to approximately 10. Great service and contact from curious campervans.

Good Battery

This appears to be a good quality battery. I decided to pay the extra - compared to strangely-named/unknown batteries online - for the 'reassurance' that I bought long-life and a company that I hope will be around to honour the 7 year warranty, should it be needed. The built-in BMS is handy. The app is a bit flaky, sometimes not connecting immediately, but eventually, always does. And the batteries require at least a couple full charge/discharge cycles to 'calibrate' the BMS which can be a bit of an inconvenience if you want to use the battery immediately.

Great support

I was not able to connect the application to the battery. Support team quickly put me in contact with Min from SOK which one fixed the problem. Battery Bluetooth goes in sleep mode when no charge or discharge are detected for a while. Simply apply a charge or a discharge wake up the circuit.

Very satisfied of the support I got.
