48V 2X EAGLE KIT- LiFePO4 – 60Ah – 3.06kWh
48V 2X EAGLE KIT is a lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery system with a 48V nominal voltage and 60Ah capacity, delivering 3.06kWh energy. Designed for high-demand applications like industrial AGVs or electric vehicles, it combines LiFePO4’s thermal stability and 3,000+ cycle life. The “2X” configuration likely indicates dual-bank redundancy or parallel/series cell arrangements for enhanced power delivery. Charging voltage typically reaches 54.4–58.4V (3.4–3.65V/cell).
Understanding Golf Cart Battery Costs
What applications suit 48V 60Ah LiFePO4 systems?
48V LiFePO4 batteries excel in AGVs, floor scrubbers, and mid-sized EVs requiring 3–4kW power. Their 3.06kWh capacity supports 8–10 hours in 300W equipment. Pro Tip: Use CANbus-compatible BMS for fleet energy monitoring.
This system’s 150A continuous discharge suits motors under 7kW. For example, a 48V 2X EAGLE KIT powers a 5kW electric utility vehicle for 35–40km per charge. Transitionally, its modular design allows scalability—parallel two units for 6.12kWh in heavy forklifts. However, what if ambient temperatures exceed 45°C? Built-in thermal sensors throttle output to prevent degradation. A 10% capacity loss occurs at -20°C without preheating.
How does 48V 2X compare to 51.2V systems?
48V vs 51.2V reflects cell count differences: 15S (48V) vs 16S (51.2V). The 2X EAGLE’s 48V suits legacy 48V infrastructure, while 51.2V offers 6% higher energy density.
Practically speaking, 51.2V 105Ah packs provide 5.37kWh—ideal for larger AGVs. But why choose 48V? Compatibility with existing chargers and motor controllers. Transitionally, 48V systems operate at 10–20% lower current than 51.2V for equivalent power, reducing cable heating. For instance, a 5kW motor draws 104A at 48V vs 98A at 51.2V.
| Parameter | 48V 2X EAGLE | 51.2V 105Ah |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | 3.06kWh | 5.37kWh |
| Cycle Life | 3,500 | 3,000 |
| Max Current | 150A | 200A |

FAQs
What is the capacity of the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT?
The 48V 2X EAGLE KIT features a total capacity of 60Ah, with each of the two battery blocks providing 30Ah. This amounts to 3.06kWh of total energy storage, ideal for replacing traditional lead-acid golf cart batteries.
What is the chemistry used in the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT?
The 48V 2X EAGLE KIT uses Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) chemistry, known for being one of the safest lithium battery chemistries. This offers superior safety, performance, and durability compared to traditional lead-acid batteries.
How long does the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT last?
The 48V 2X EAGLE KIT is rated for over 3,500 charge and discharge cycles, equating to a lifespan of approximately 10 years under proper use. It also comes with a limited 10-year warranty for added peace of mind.
What are the charging capabilities of the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT?
The 48V 2X EAGLE KIT can charge up to 5 times faster than traditional lead-acid batteries. It can be fully recharged in as little as 7 hours when using the appropriate charging methods.
What is the weight of the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT?
Each individual EAGL battery in the kit weighs approximately 23 lbs. This is about half the weight of traditional lead-acid batteries, which reduces the overall weight of the golf cart and improves performance.
How much usable energy does the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT provide?
The 48V 2X EAGLE KIT offers 100% usable energy, unlike lead-acid batteries which typically only provide about 50% usable capacity. This increases the efficiency and operational time of your golf cart.
Can the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT fit in my golf cart?
The 48V 2X EAGLE KIT is designed as a “mirror-image” replacement for standard T-105 lead-acid batteries, meaning it fits into most standard 48V golf cart battery trays without requiring any modifications.
What are user reviews about the 48V 2X EAGLE KIT?
Users report significant performance improvements, such as increased range and greater acceleration. However, for heavily modified carts with large tires or powerful motors, some suggest opting for a larger capacity battery around 100Ah for better performance.
