50% more energy-efficient than lead-acid batteries

The Advantages of Lithium Ion Batteries

When purchasing a lift truck, it can be fitted with a lithium ion battery.
Some benefits and advantages of lithium-ion battery forklifts include:

No Maintenance

Lithium-ion is a low maintenance battery, since no memory and no scheduled cycling is required to prolong the battery's life, they will always give up their last bit of power, and can be recharged whether 100% or 20% of power was used.

Your lithium-ion battery will last over 10 years! That is 2-4x longer than a lead acid battery, which means you would not replace a battery as often.

Increase warehouse space

Reclaim the area you’re using as a charging room for additional storage.

Handles cold environments

Operations where forklifts operate in cold environments can also quickly benefit from switching to lithium-ion. lithium-ion forklift batteries can be fast-charged in cold temperatures (even inside freezers) and maintain their capacity in cold temps better than their lead-acid counterparts.

Reduction in warehouse hazards

Li-ion batteries don’t emit harmful fumes or CO2, there’s no risk of acid spills, and you’ll have 70-80 percent fewer batteries...
Li-ion batteries don’t emit harmful fumes or CO2, there’s no risk of acid spills, and you’ll have 70-80 percent fewer batteries to dispose of over time because you won’t be replacing batteries as often.

Beneficial for employee safety

Hydrogen fumes and “acid splash” are a health and safety concern for workers maintaining lead acid batteries. Risks include sulfuric acid contacting their clothing, skin or eyes. Such potential health and safety hazards are eliminated when using lithium batteries.

The Government Subsidizes 20% - 30% of the value of the battery and Valley Forklift offers a digestible financing solution for the lithium ion batteries. In addition, the value of the batteries will pay off itself over years to come with the increase in warehouse operations and the decrease in labor costs and downtime.

The difference between
Lead Acid BatteriesVS Lithium Ion Batteries

Lead acid battery

  • Emits Carbon dioxide
  • Battery Life: 3 to 5 years
  • Investment: Less
  • Hazardous due to risk of acid spills
  • Increase in downtime due to recharge time and battery changes
  • Storage Space required
  • Increase in energy bills

Lithium Ion Battery

  • Energy Efficient
  • No Toxic Chemicals to emit
  • Battery Life: 10 to 12 years
  • Investment: More
  • Decrease in downtime and energy bills
  • Charges 8x times faster
  • No storage space required.
