Torqeedo Power 48-5000 Lithium Battery - 2104-00

What our Experts Think

• High Energy Density: Utilizes automotive-grade BMW i battery modules, offering 70% more energy density than standard lithium LiFePO4 batteries, optimizing both space and weight.

• Extended Lifespan: Designed for durability, it supports over 3,000 cycles with 80% depth of discharge at 25°C, resulting in approximately 20% capacity loss, ensuring long-term reliability.

• Comprehensive Protection: Equipped with an intelligent Battery Management System (BMS) that safeguards against overcharging, short circuits, deep discharge, polarity reversal, overheating, and submersion, enhancing safety during operation.

• Marine-Grade Durability: With an IP67 rating, the battery is fully waterproof, capable of withstanding submersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes without damage, making it ideal for marine environments.

• Compatibility: At production launch, the Power 48-5000 is compatible with Cruise 4.0 and 10.0 motors. Operation requires specific throttles (models 1949-00, 1950-00, 1951-00, 1952-00) or a TorqLink Gateway (part no. 2217-00) for standard Cruise models

Maintenance Tips

• Regular Usage: If the battery is used regularly, aim to keep the discharge depth to around 80% to prolong its lifespan.

• Temperature Considerations: Avoid exposing the battery to high temperatures, as prolonged heat exposure can accelerate capacity loss. After use, store the battery in a cool, shaded area.

• Storage Recommendations: When storing the battery for extended periods, especially over winter (up to six months), unplug it and maintain a charge level of approximately 50%. Check the charge level every eight weeks, and if it has declined, recharge it to 50%. 

• Professional Servicing: Eight years after the manufacturing date, have the battery inspected at a Torqeedo Service Centre to ensure it remains in optimal condition
