Over the years, we have done lithium battery upgrades on three of our four RVs. While installing lithium batteries (and solar) in our Class A motorhome was a much bigger, more complex job that required assistance from others. Up grading from lead acid to lithium batteries on our Class C motorhome and Casita camper were both …

The experiment – and subsequent white paper report – were produced to answer two of the most common questions Battle Born Batteries reported being asked …
Lithium-ion vs. Lead Acid: Performance, Costs, and Durability
Lead-acid batteries rely primarily on lead and sulfuric acid to function and are one of the oldest batteries in existence. At its heart, the battery contains two types of plates: a lead dioxide (PbO2) plate, which serves as the positive plate, and a pure lead (Pb) plate, which acts as the negative plate.
