Understanding Lithium-Ion & LiFePO4 Technology
What are Lithium-Ion Batteries?
Lithium-ion batteries are advanced rechargeable batteries known for their high energy density, lack of memory effect, and slow self-discharge rate. They are a superior alternative to lead-acid batteries, offering lighter weight, higher open circuit voltage, and efficient power transfer.
What are LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) Batteries?
LiFePO4 batteries are a specific chemistry of lithium-ion batteries that stand out for their superior thermal and chemical stability, enhanced safety, and remarkable cycle life (often exceeding 2,000 charge cycles). Himax primarily focuses on designing and manufacturing LiFePO4 batteries for our deep cycle and starter battery lines due to these inherent advantages.

Capacity (Ah) Comparison: Himax Lithium vs. Lead-Acid
A Himax 12V 300Ah LiFePO4 Battery provides its true rated capacity at a 1C discharge rate meaning a 300Ah Himax battery can deliver 300A for 1 hour. In contrast, a lead-acid battery with a “20hr” or “25hr” rating will offer significantly less usable energy at higher discharge rates, and cannot be safely discharged below 50% Depth of Discharge (DOD) without damage. Himax lithium batteries can be safely discharged to 90% DOD, effectively making a 12V 300Ah Lithium Battery comparable to a much larger lead-acid battery for real-world usage and long cycle life battery performance.
