Advantage of Li-Ion Forklift Batteries
Lead-acid batteries have served as the traditional choice for electric power and have undergone adjustments over time to better meet the demands of demanding operational environments. However, lead-acid batteries demand a significant amount of maintenance while lithium ion batteries are constructed with smarter and cleaner technology that has continued to evolve and advance.

Advantage of Li-Ion Forklift Batteries
Comparing TPPL batteries to lithium-ion batteries reveals a notable difference. Although TPPL batteries may outperform traditional lead-acid batteries in terms of efficiency, capacity, and lifespan, they still fall short of a lithium-ion battery in all category.

Minimize Energy Costs — Boost Profits
Switch from propane-powered forklifts to electric battery-powered forklifts for huge cost savings— in fuel, maintenance, efficiency, and total cost of ownership (TCO).
Lower Cost of Ownership: Save on fuel, maintenance, and repairs.
Lower Fuel Costs: Electricity costs 2–3x less per hour than propane
Less Maintenance: Electric forklifts have fewer moving parts, no engine, no transmission, and no exhaust systems for less downtime and repair bills.
Longer Lifespan: Lithium, TPPL, and Lead Acid batteries can last 2-3x longer than internal combustion components
LCFS Rebates & Energy Credits: Regional rebates, grants, and ESG benefits come with going electric.
