The 24V LiFePO4 battery (25.6V nominal, 8S) is the middle platform of lithium battery systems — half the current of 12V at the same power, with wiring that stays affordable well past 3kW. Distributors serving the 24V channel know the pattern: trolling-motor banks, mobility and wheelchair packs, small off-grid systems, and a long tail of 24V equipment that lead-acid never served well. LJY Energy’s 25.6V (8S) series standardizes this channel: same voltage platform, same BMS family, one training program — from 100Ah to 314Ah. This series page maps the lineup, the channel logic, and wholesale/OEM sourcing.
Series at a Glance: the 24V Capacity Ladder
All models in this series share the same 25.6V nominal platform (8S × 3.2V prismatic cells, 29.2V typical charge), the same enclosure family, and the same BMS option set. What changes is capacity — and with it, energy, weight class, and best-fit application.
| Model | Capacity | Energy | Cell config | Typical BMS | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 24V 100Ah | 100Ah | 2.56kWh | 8S1P (100Ah cells) | 100A | Trolling motors, small off-grid, mobility — the entry 24V SKU |
| 24V 200Ah | 200Ah | 5.12kWh | 8S1P (200Ah cells) or 8S2P (100Ah) | 200A | 24V inverter systems, larger boats, work vehicles — the volume SKU |
| 24V 314Ah | 314Ah | 8.04kWh | 8S1P (314Ah cells) | 200–250A | Maximum single-battery 24V energy — fewer strings, simpler wiring |
Three SKUs, one voltage platform, one BMS family. A distributor holding all three covers light, medium, and heavy 24V demand without dead inventory. For the full engineering detail on the flagship model, see our 25.6V 314Ah battery page.

Distributor FAQ
Do you supply 25.6V (24V) series batteries wholesale?
Yes. Distributors and importers can order the 25.6V series (100Ah, 200Ah, 314Ah) wholesale or as private label. Each model is quoted with its BMS and communication options; MOQ, price, lead time and warranty are confirmed per order.
Is the 25.6V 100Ah suitable for caravan and RV dealers?
It is a common 24V house-battery size for caravans and motorhomes with 24V inverter-chargers. For a dealer quote we confirm the charger or DC-DC charging profile, the largest load, and whether cold-climate charging needs self-heating, then fix the configuration in the datasheet.
Can 25.6V 314Ah batteries be supplied for truck and fleet auxiliary power?
For sleeper-cab and auxiliary (hotel) loads, yes, as a project: send the truck platform, the alternator/DC-DC charging setup, the loads and the climate. These are not engine-starting batteries; compatibility with any specific truck is confirmed per project, not assumed.
Why 24V: the Current Problem It Solves
Power is volts × amps — and at 12V, the amps get expensive. A 3kW inverter on 12V draws 250A continuous; the same inverter on 24V draws 125A. That halving ripples through everything: thinner cables, smaller fuses, less voltage drop, cooler-running connections. The rule of thumb the 24V channel lives by:
- Below ~2kW / ~3kWh: 12V is fine — the wiring stays affordable.
- 2–5kW / 3–8kWh: 24V is the sweet spot — this series.
- Above ~5kW / 8kWh: step up to 48V — see our 48V series.
24V is also the native voltage of a large installed base: trolling motors, mobility equipment, telecom-adjacent gear, and industrial equipment built around 24V DC. This series serves both the “step up from 12V” buyer and the “native 24V equipment” buyer.
Mid-ladder live pages on this 25.6V platform: 24V 100Ah, 24V 150Ah (3.84kWh), and 25.6V 100Ah energy-storage form factor. Use these when the capacity table above needs a concrete RFQ target; confirm BMS and docs on the quote.
Capacity-by-Capacity: Who Buys What
24V 100Ah (2.56kWh) — the entry SKU
Who stocks it: marine dealers (trolling-motor banks are 24V by design), mobility equipment dealers, and small off-grid retailers. Lowest entry price in the series.
Who installs it: anglers running 24V trolling motors; wheelchair and mobility-scooter users needing all-day range; small cabins with 24V-native DC loads.
Replenishment logic: trolling-motor season restocks the same configurations yearly — dealers who stock the standard sizes capture the spring rush.
24V 200Ah (5.12kWh) — the volume SKU
Who stocks it: every serious 24V distributor. The 5kWh class is the standard answer for 24V inverter systems, larger boats, and work vehicles.
Who installs it: off-grid cabins and workshops running 24V inverters (2–3kW class); commercial vehicles with 24V auxiliary systems; larger trolling-motor banks.
Replenishment logic: highest unit volume in the series. Installers standardize on it — one model, one commissioning procedure, one spares pool.
24V 314Ah (8.04kWh) — the flagship
Who stocks it: specialty off-grid and marine distributors. At 8.04kWh in a single case, it is the largest standard-format 24V lithium battery — built from the same 314Ah prismatic cells (EVE MB31, CATL, REPT, CALB, Hithium, Gotion) used in home storage.
Who installs it: serious off-grid users who want maximum 24V energy with minimum wiring complexity. One 314Ah battery replaces three 100Ah units — no parallel balancing, one BMS, one set of cables.
Replenishment logic: lower unit volume, highest margin per sale. The customers are informed buyers — cell-grade documentation closes the sale.
Trolling Motors: the 24V Marine Channel
The trolling-motor market is 24V by design — 24V motors draw half the current of 12V equivalents at the same thrust, which is why serious anglers run 24V (or 36V) banks. This is a distinct dealer channel from the RV house-battery market:
- The standard bank: 2× 12V 100Ah in series was the old answer; a single 24V 100Ah is the lithium answer — no series wiring, one BMS, half the connections.
- Thrust-to-capacity math: a 24V 80-lb-thrust motor draws roughly 50A at full power — a 24V 100Ah bank gives ~2 hours at full throttle, a full day at typical trolling speeds.
- Weight is the pitch: two Group 31 lead-acids weigh ~120 lbs; one 24V 100Ah lithium weighs ~50 lbs. Bow weight matters for boat trim — anglers feel it.
- Dealer logic: marine dealers stock 24V 100Ah as the default trolling recommendation, with 200Ah for guides and tournament anglers who run all day.
No outboard or trolling-motor brand compatibility is claimed or implied — fitment is by voltage, thrust draw, and verified electrical specification, confirmed per project. Ask for a trolling-motor sizing sheet with your motor’s thrust and voltage.
Mobility & Wheelchair: 24V Power Packs
Power wheelchairs and mobility scooters are 24V systems — two 12V blocks in series, historically. The lithium replacement is a single 24V pack with a fraction of the weight:
- Range math: a 24V 100Ah pack (2.56kWh) gives a typical power wheelchair a full day of heavy use; 50–60Ah packs cover standard daily range.
- Weight is the pitch: lead-acid mobility batteries are the heaviest component of the chair — lithium cuts that weight by two-thirds, which users feel on every transfer and transport.
- Airline and safety: mobility batteries travel with the user — UN38.3 documentation and compliant labeling are part of every shipment, confirmed per project.
- Dealer logic: mobility equipment dealers buy on the replacement cycle — lithium’s cycle life stretches the replacement interval, so the pitch is total cost per year, not unit price.
No medical-device certification is claimed — target-market certifications are confirmed per project. Request a mobility-pack quotation with target capacity and volume.
Mobile Surveillance & Security Trailers: 24V for the Rental Channel
Construction-site theft has created a rental market for mobile surveillance trailers — solar-powered camera towers towed to job sites, equipment yards, and events. The electrical standard is 24V, and the battery is the consumable the rental companies replace:
- The standard configuration: 24V systems with ~200Ah-class battery banks (often 2× 200Ah), a 3000W-class inverter, and 700–1100W of solar — sized for 24/7 camera loads through cloudy stretches.
- Rental-fleet buying: security rental companies maintain trailer fleets and replace batteries on the lead-acid 2–3 year cycle — a 50-trailer fleet is a standing batch-replacement customer. Lithium’s cycle life stretches that replacement interval by multiples.
- Theft-resistant installation: trailer battery compartments need lockable, tamper-evident enclosures — batteries are theft targets on unattended sites.
- Solar balance: panel wattage must cover the camera load plus recharge margin — size from the 24/7 load audit, not the panel’s nameplate.
No compatibility with any trailer brand or model is claimed or implied — dimensions and interfaces are confirmed per trailer, per project. Request a surveillance-trailer quotation with the trailer specification and fleet size.
Alternator & Solar Charging Architecture
24V systems charge from three sources, and the architecture matters more than at 12V:
- Alternator: 24V alternators (commercial vehicles, boats) charge through a DC-DC charger with a lithium profile — 28.8–29.2V absorption. Never connect lithium directly to an unregulated alternator output.
- Solar: MPPT controllers with 24V lithium profiles; panel strings sized to the controller’s input window. 24V systems need fewer panels in series than 48V for the same controller.
- Shore/generator AC: 29.2V lithium-profile chargers in 20A–60A class for dock and shop charging.
- Dual-source priority: for work vehicles, the standard architecture is alternator-primary with solar top-up — the DC-DC charger handles the handoff automatically.
Feature Options Matrix
Every model in the series can be configured from the same option set. Specify at order time — most options are difficult to retrofit.
| Option | Choices | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| BMS current rating | 100A / 200A / 250A continuous | Match to the largest load — 200A supports ~5kW at 24V |
| Bluetooth monitoring | Standard / not fitted | Mobile app for voltage, current, SOC, cell temperatures |
| Low-temperature protection | Cut-off only / cut-off + self-heating | Charging blocked below 0°C; heating pads for cold climates |
| Enclosure protection | Standard ABS / IP65 / IP67 | IP67 for bilge, deck, and exposed installation |
| Series/parallel | Up to 2S / parallel per BMS limits | 2S for 48V banks; parallel for larger capacity |
| Battery short-circuit current | Test data provided per project | Needed to choose the main fuse interrupt rating (AIC) — see the fusing notes below |
| OEM branding | Private label / neutral | Custom cases, labels, and specification sheets |
System Design Notes for Dealers and Installers
- Charging: use a lithium-profile charger or solar controller (29.2V absorption). Old 24V lead-acid chargers with equalization modes can overvoltage LiFePO4.
- Parallel best practice: parallel units should be the same model, age, and state of health. For new large systems, prefer one larger battery over several small ones in parallel.
- Fusing: install the main fuse as close to the positive terminal as practical. On boats, follow the maximum fuse-to-battery distance in the current edition of ABYC E-11, measured along the cable. Size the fuse to protect the cable — at or below the cable’s ampacity and above the normal system load — not to match the BMS over-current setting. Its interrupt rating (AIC) must exceed the current the battery can deliver into a dead short: use the battery short-circuit current from the test data, provided per project. If that figure is not yet available, take the short-circuit current from the cell/battery datasheet and apply the current edition of ABYC E-11 rather than a rule of thumb. Larger lithium banks often need a high-interrupt-rating fuse such as Class T rather than a standard ANL fuse, and parallel banks may need a fuse on each battery. In an RV, follow the ANSI/RVIA DC Standard and the battery maker’s instructions; the same interrupt-rating check is good practice. Final fuse and cable selection belongs to the installer or a qualified marine electrician.
- When to step up to 48V: above ~5kW of inverter load or ~8kWh of storage, 24V currents get expensive to wire. See our 48V series.
Wholesale and OEM/ODM
The 24V series is LJY Energy’s mid-platform line for distribution channels that live between 12V simplicity and 48V power. We supply wholesale 24V LiFePO4 batteries at all three capacity points with matched BMS options, private-label enclosures, and project documentation (UN38.3 test summaries, MSDS). Distributors buying lithium batteries in bulk can start with the 200Ah volume SKU and add 100Ah and 314Ah as demand develops — same voltage platform, same sales training, same support process.
For OEMs, the series supports full private-label programs: custom case colors, branded labels, application-specific BMS firmware (marine, mobility, commercial vehicle), and specification sheets for the exact cells shipped. Cell-level sourcing is also available — see LiFePO4 battery cells wholesale.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I mix 24V batteries of different capacities in one system?
Not in parallel — parallel batteries should match in capacity. In series (2S for 48V), both units must be identical. Size with the right model from the start.
Why not just use 12V batteries in series for 24V?
Two 12V in series works electrically, but a single 24V battery has one BMS instead of two, no inter-battery balancing drift, and half the connections. For new builds, the single 24V unit is the cleaner answer.
What charges a 24V LiFePO4 battery?
A 29.2V lithium-profile charger, MPPT solar controller, or DC-DC alternator charger. Old 24V lead-acid chargers with equalization modes must be replaced or reprogrammed.
Do you support private-label orders across the series?
Yes. OEM programs can cover one model or the full three-model ladder with consistent branding. Specifications and terms are confirmed per project — request a 24V series quotation.
How do sample, pilot and repeat orders usually run for the 24V series?
Buyers typically start with evaluation samples, then a pilot quantity of one capacity (often 200Ah), then repeat replenishment across the ladder. Stage sizes, branding depth and document pack needs are confirmed per inquiry — see the MOQ & sample order guide.
