The first li-ion drop-in replacement for a 6-volt GC2 battery
The GC2 is a direct replacement for a 6V lead acid or AGM battery. While the GC2 may mimic a 6V lead-acid or AGM battery in physical form, the similarities end there. The GC2 offers the same power as our flagship 100Ah 12V battery, just in a different form factor.
The GC2 allows you to use the full 100Ah out of the battery without the 50% discharge restriction that other batteries have. It provides five times faster charging while taking advantage of the true amp hours. The GC2 also excels in both hot and cold weather reaching discharging temperatures from -4°F to 140°F. With no low voltage sags, even as the battery depletes, our battery is proven to provide consistent power.
As with all of our batteries, the GC2 comes with a built-in Battery Management System (BMS) that protects the batteries from high or low voltage, high or low temperatures, and if there is a short in the system. We know these batteries are an investment, so we’ve designed a battery that will safeguard itself to ensure maximum lifespan.
Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries offer advantages over other forms of battery technology for many reasons. LiFePO4 batteries have a high energy density, which allows you to consume more power and operate longer between charges. Our batteries also have a very low self-discharge rate. A lithium iron phosphate battery discharges at approximately 1-2% per month, which is far superior compared to other battery technology.
Other major lithium iron phosphate advantages are their low maintenance and safety benefits. Lithium iron phosphate batteries do not emit fumes, so there is no need for venting, and because there is no fume emission, lithium iron phosphate batteries can be stored indoors with no issues. They are extremely safe and because they are non-toxic, LiFePO4 is landfill safe, unlike other battery technology that can contaminate acres of municipal waste.
