Why this pack

  • Drop-in replacement designEngineered to occupy the same compartment as the lead-acid battery it replaces. Send your truck model — you get a proposed pack and an indicative price range within 24 hours.
  • CATL LiFePO4 cellsAutomotive-grade prismatic cells from CATL, matched and sorted before assembly.
  • Opportunity chargingTop up during breaks without the lead-acid cycle-depth penalty — the pack doesn't need to be swapped or cooled down first.
  • Zero watering, zero equalizingNo electrolyte maintenance. Your operators stop touching batteries entirely.
  • Sealed IP54 enclosureFine-texture black steel (RAL 9017), dust and water protected for warehouse and yard conditions.

Cell build & documents

This pack does not map to a single-string build of a catalogue cell, so we do not publish a cell type against it. Ask us for the bill of materials and we send the exact cell model with its IEC 62619 and UN 38.3 documents — in writing, before you quote.

Will it fit your truck? We work it out with you.

Send your truck make, model and battery compartment dimensions. Within 24 hours an engineer comes back with a proposed MGT-48V-class pack, an indicative price range and the points still to verify. If the direction works for you, we refine the configuration — compartment, weight, connector, mounting — and confirm the final fit in writing before production. If it doesn't fit, you hear it from us first.

1You send truck model + compartment size (or just the truck model).
2We match compartment, weight class and connector.
3Proposal and price range within 24 hours; final fit confirmed in writing once you approve.

Start your fit check

Two minutes to send. The truck model is all we need to start — the rest is optional and lives in the same form.

  • Truck make & model — one model is enough, or a photo of the data plate
  • What you need — a quote, a cost comparison, a fit check, or just a question
  • If you have them — compartment, connector, capacity, shifts, fleet size
