We have imported numerous shipments of these batteries. Yes! they are the exact battery made in the same exact factory. Just without the EG4 branding. EG4 is a USA company, and they are pioneers in the field, creating a couple of great high-quality batteries for their company. With sales in the hundreds of thousands of full complete batteries. We are also partners with the same OEM factories, something we understand is a honour and it’s because early on we formed relationships with these Tier 1 factories.
We have supplied batteries to companies such as Shell Petroleum for large off grid mine installations, and other large wholesale clients in Australia. Creating a bridge between our two nations.
In Australia we call it the LiFePro 48100 in Australia. The factory that builds these batteries is not an Alibaba factory, it’s actually a company with a valuation in the Billions. A Tier 1 professional battery manufacturer in China, and the quality of workmanship and quantity available is of the highest quality.
As of 2023 we switched to the LiFePro-LL (long life) model battery which is the premium battery in the USA, we have done this because it is much better suited to Australia, it uses better grade cells, and it has an amazing BMS with support for Victron inverters. You can also parallel up to 64 of them to create very large battery packs using the 100ah version that is 327kwh. And for the 300ah model that is 1MWh.
Update – Jan 2024
The price for a 51.2v 100ah premium model is $2500 AUD that price includes10% GST, and Customs fees, and any import duties, which are expensive. Shipping is complicated for DG (Dangerous Goods) so please contact us for a quote.
The price of the Battery in the USA is about the same when you factor in GST and the exchange rate. So, there is no penalty for you to buy these batteries from Lifepo4 Australia. And most people in Australia don’t realise there are also, state and province taxe in the USA, So the prices you may think Americans are paying are usually not the full price. Usually you need to add between 7.5-15% for sales tax in America. Similar to Australia.
The warranty will be 10 years on these, and we may decide to have these batteries added to the CEC-approved battery list for use on Grid. In our professional opinion, this battery is actually better quality than everything else in Australia. It will have a 10-year warranty and support 7000 cycles. As well as being capable of parallel in 64 units.
Since we did shut down operations for a few months in 2023 due to severe illness, we do not have stock of these batteries, if you want to register your interest in these, please contact us, as we don’t know exactly how many people will want this battery and it makes it hard to order the right number in advance.
