LiFePO4 vs Lithium-Ion Battery

This site carries two lithium chemistries: LiFePO4 packs (12V, 24V and 48V, plus portable stations) and lithium-ion packs (18650-based e-bike and category packs, plus power banks). This comparison describes the two families as listed, and it deliberately does not assemble a cross-family performance guarantee from two separate parameters.

No founding year, headcount, phone or named contact is published on this site: those records conflict between sources and are not settled. Contact goes through the inquiry form.

That restraint matters because the evidence for the two families is uneven. The LiFePO4 family has full specification tables on its model pages; the lithium-ion family has one fully specified pack (the 48V 12Ah e-bike downtube pack) and category listings for the rest. A comparison that merged a LiFePO4 table value with a lithium-ion category phrase into a single performance claim would be inventing evidence, and this page does not do it.

How to compare, honestly

Compare within a use, not across a chemistry label. For a home storage job, the LiFePO4 48V range is the evidenced family, with tables and range descriptions behind it. For an e-bike job, the lithium-ion 48V 12Ah downtube pack is the evidenced model, with a table behind it. For a portable station job, only the SG2000 and the 200W unit carry an evidenced LiFePO4 chemistry on this site; the 100W and 300W units are described only by their listed outputs, and a buyer should confirm chemistry for those units before ordering. The chemistry label alone does not choose a pack; the use, the voltage, the capacity and the table do.

Cycle-life figures illustrate the restraint: LiFePO4 model pages carry per-model cycle-life figures with test conditions, while the lithium-ion category listings carry no cycle-life figure at all on this site. No comparative cycle-life claim is published here, because the lithium-ion side of that comparison has no figure to compare with. Before payment, confirm MOQ, lead time, voltage, warranty and certification scope for your order.
