Lead-acid batteries are still widely used in India due to their affordability. However, their maintenance demands—like frequent water refills—often frustrate users. While maintaining one or two batteries may be manageable, users with larger setups of 4 to 8 batteries often face significant challenges in upkeep.
To avoid such hassles, many are turning to lithium batteries, which require virtually no maintenance. Until now, however, lithium batteries were too expensive for the average user. That’s where Maxvolt Energy steps in.
At the RideAsia 2025 event, Maxvolt Energy unveiled its budget-friendly lithium battery lineup—compatible with any home inverter system—making maintenance-free power storage more accessible than ever.
🔋 Affordable Lithium Battery Options from Maxvolt Energy
Maxvolt Energy also manufactures lithium batteries for e-bikes, e-scooters, and e-rickshaws, but here we focus on their energy storage batteries designed for inverters—perfect for areas facing frequent power cuts.
✅ 12V 100Ah Lithium Battery
- Equivalent Backup: 150Ah Lead-Acid Battery
- Price: ₹13,000 – ₹14,000
- Competing brands price the same capacity around ₹18,000–₹20,000.
✅ 12V 120Ah Lithium Battery
- Equivalent Backup: 180Ah Lead-Acid Battery
- Price: Approx. ₹17,000
✅ 24V 100Ah Lithium Battery
- Equivalent Backup: Two 165Ah Lead-Acid Batteries
- Price: ₹25,000 – ₹28,000
✅ 24V 120Ah Lithium Battery
- Ideal for users needing more than what 150Ah or 165Ah lead-acid batteries provide.
- Can run a 400W load for up to 6 hours.
✅ 48V 100Ah Lithium Battery
- Best suited for 4-battery inverter systems
- Equivalent Backup: Four 165Ah Lead-Acid Batteries
- Price: Around ₹55,000
✅ 48V 120Ah Lithium Battery
- Ideal for 3.5kVA inverters handling 2.5kW loads
- Can power such loads for 2 hours
- Price: Approx. ₹65,000
🛠 Custom Lithium Battery Solutions Available
Maxvolt Energy also offers custom-built lithium batteries for large inverter setups using 8 or 10 batteries. Need to run a 5kW load for 5 hours? You can get a 48V 500Ah battery made just for that.
🌟 Advantages of Using Lithium Batteries
- Maintenance-Free: No water top-ups, no corrosion checks—just install and forget.
- Fast Charging & Discharging: Supports high loads without affecting battery life. For example, a 48V 100Ah lithium battery with a 50A discharge rate can power up to 2.5kW for 2 hours.
- Single-Battery System: Unlike lead-acid batteries (fixed at 12V), lithium batteries can be configured for higher voltages in a single unit, simplifying installations.
- Space & Weight Efficient:
- One 48V 100Ah lithium battery = backup of 4 lead-acid batteries
- Takes only the space and weight of 1 battery
- You can get a 51.2V 400Ah lithium battery that equals 20 lead-acid batteries but fits in the space of just 4
🔚 Final Thought
Maxvolt Energy’s launch of affordable lithium batteries may revolutionize how Indian households manage power storage. Whether you’re looking for low-maintenance, high-efficiency power backup or want to build a compact, high-capacity energy system, these lithium batteries offer a future-proof solution.
