Lead-to-Lithium Battery Conversion: Ushering in a New Era of Multi-Scenario Energy Upgrades

In today’s era of rapidly advancing technology, energy storage technologies are experiencing unprecedented transformation. Traditional lead-acid batteries, long the mainstream energy storage device, have played a key role in many fields. However, as demands for device performance, endurance and environmental protection continue to rise, the limitations of lead-acid batteries have gradually become apparent. At the same time, lithium batteries—thanks to their outstanding performance advantages—are gradually becoming the ideal replacement for lead-acid batteries. Our CYCLENPO 24 V 100 Ah lithium battery demonstrates its unique value and wide-ranging applications in fishing boats, RVs, yachts, marine vessels and home energy storage systems.

1. Performance Comparison Between Lead-Acid and Lithium Batteries

(a) Energy Density
Lead-acid batteries have relatively low energy density, which means that under the same volume or weight they can store limited electrical energy. Typically, lead-acid batteries have a gravimetric energy density around 30–50 Wh/kg, while CYCLENPO’s lithium battery offers a higher energy density, enabling more energy storage with smaller volume and weight. For example, a 24 V 100 Ah CYCLENPO lithium battery, when providing the same quantity of electricity, may reduce its volume by one-third or more and significantly reduce weight compared with a lead-acid battery of the same specification. This is highly significant in scenarios with strict requirements on space and weight, such as fishing boats and RVs.

(b) Cycle Life
Cycle life is one of the key indicators of battery performance. Lead-acid batteries typically have a shorter cycle life, generally around 300–500 cycles. After multiple charge-discharge cycles, lead-acid batteries’ capacity declines noticeably, and performance degrades rapidly. In contrast, CYCLENPO’s lithium batteries boast a much longer cycle life, reaching several thousand cycles. This means that under normal use, a lithium battery can accompany users for a longer period, reducing the cost and hassle of frequent battery replacement. For devices that rely on power supply over long term—such as marine vessels and home energy storage systems—a lithium battery with long cycle life is undoubtedly a more economical and reliable choice.

(c) Charging Speed
Charging speed is another key difference between the two. Lead-acid batteries charge relatively slowly—fully charging may take several hours or longer. This may cause inconvenience in scenarios requiring rapid replenishment of electricity. By contrast, CYCLENPO’s lithium battery supports fast-charging functionality and can complete charging in a relatively short time. For example, using a suitable charger, the 24 V 100 Ah lithium battery may reach approximately 80% state of charge within 1–2 hours, greatly improving device usage efficiency and meeting the demand for rapid power restoration in emergencies.

(d) Self-Discharge Rate
The self-discharge rate reflects how much charge a battery naturally loses while idle. Lead-acid batteries have a relatively high self-discharge rate—around 10%–15% per month. If left unused for a long time, lead-acid batteries may suffer insufficient charge, impacting performance when reused. Meanwhile, CYCLENPO’s lithium batteries feature a lower self-discharge rate—around 3%–5% per month. This makes lithium batteries more advantageous in applications such as backup power supplies, as they can hold stable charge reserves for long periods and provide reliable power support whenever needed.
