LiFePO4 Battery 12V for RV & Motorhome, 165Ah - tested under extreme conditions, original tigerexped

LiFePO4 Battery 12V 165Ah – compact, lightweight, powerful & 100% tigerexped

This 12V 165Ah LiFePO4 battery combines maximum energy density, uncompromising reliability and smart features in an exceptionally compact format.

Compared to standard LiFePO4 batteries, you save valuable weight and space – two key factors when building out your travel vehicle. With identical battery dimensions, you can now get a full 165Ah instead of, say, 100Ah – and still save weight!

But this LiFePO4 battery goes even further: It offers double safety, smart technology for low-temperature use, and extremely low self-discharge – for maximum comfort and top-level reliability on the road.

Tested under extreme conditions: proven performance down to -35 °C

This battery wasn’t just tested in a lab – it was put to the test in real-world winter conditions in northern Sweden. It delivered reliable performance even under the toughest weather. If you want to stay self-sufficient in the depths of winter (and your battery might not be installed in a heated space), this LiFePO4 is the one to go for.
 

At a glance: Key features of the tigerexped LiFePO4 battery
 

✅ Ultra-compact and lightweight

Exceptionally high-quality cells paired with a custom-designed housing enable a whole new level of energy density – even by LiFePO4 standards. That means more capacity with less weight and space in your camper, off-roader or motorhome.
 

✅ Self-heating for full charging capability in cold conditions

LiFePO4 batteries can’t be charged when temperatures drop below a certain threshold. That usually means you’d need to warm up the entire battery compartment first – which costs a lot of time and energy.

Not here: The tigerexped battery includes an integrated heating mat that kicks in when the temperature falls below the typical LiFePO4 charging threshold. Powered by your alternator, solar, or any other available source, it quickly brings the battery back to charging temperature. Charging is enabled again from just 8 °C cell temperature.
 

✅ Extremely low self-discharge

This battery is optimized for minimal standby losses. No power-hungry Bluetooth modules, and a highly efficient BMS help preserve capacity even after long periods of downtime. You can completely shut down the battery via a physical switch – ideal for longer breaks without recharging.
 

✅ Dual protection – for you and your vehicle

In addition to the electronic protection provided by the BMS, there’s also a hardware-level safety circuit that cuts power even in the event of a software failure. That’s extra peace of mind for your electrical system.
 

✅ Fully integrated with Victron Energy systems

The convenience of Victron GX devices has become a must-have in travel setups. If you’d like to benefit from this, our optional battery monitor allows full DVCC integration with no hassle.
 

✅ Software updateable

Thanks to its RS485 interface, the battery’s software can be updated – protecting your investment long-term.
 

✅ Supports series connection

Need 24V, 36V or 48V? No problem: This LiFePO4 battery can be safely connected in series – up to four units.
 

✅ Rugged aluminium housing

The metal case is bolted shut for maximum durability, and features thermal separation: Two independently designed layers protect cells and electronics separately and effectively.
 

Included with your tigerexped LiFePO4 battery:

• Rugged, rotatable terminal covers
  Two cable outlets allow safe connection and flexible expansion options.
   
• Slim-line mounting console with rubber mounts and straps
  Extremely space-saving and secure – even in tight installs. No extra brackets needed.
   
• RJ45 cable (30 cm)
  For connecting multiple batteries (e.g. in series or shared management setups).
