IP67 Protection, Marine-Grade Confidence
LiTime 12V 165Ah dual purpose lithium battery comes with IP67 protection—water-proof, dust-proof, and salt-spray-proof. Whether you’re navigating rough seas, fishing in saltwater, or docking along the coast, it provides reliable performance and long-lasting durability in the harshest marine environments.
One Battery Does It All
LiTime 12V 165Ah dual purpose lithium marine battery lets you crank your outboard with confidence and power your onboard electronics all day—lights, radar, fish finder, and more. One battery, no extra hassle.
4 Charging Methods
Whether you use LiFePO4 battery charger, outboard alternator, generator, or solar panel, you can fully charge your battery efficiently and reliably.
Trusted Quality. Guaranteed Support.
Every LiTime battery undergoes rigorous testing and comes with trusted quality assurance. We offer professional technical support, a flexible return policy, a detailed user guide, and 24/7 online service for your peace of mind.
LiTime lithium starting batteries are equipped with a built-in smart Battery Management System (BMS) that limits the charging voltage to 15V or below, ensuring safe and stable operation of the battery cells.
In most cases, outboard motor charging systems are fully compatible with LiTime lithium starting batteries and can charge and operate normally.
However, a small number of outboard engines with special regulator models may not match lithium batteries properly.
If this occurs, there are two recommended solutions:
Important: Please DO NOT use this battery as a starter battery for any type of vehicle, including cars, motorcycles, tractors, etc.
For optimal use of the battery, please observe the following safety precautions:
1. Engine Compatibility: Not compatible with the outboard motor without a built-in regulator, or older voltage regulators.
2. Mounting Requirements: When using in marine starting equipment (such as fuel outboard engines) or in vibrating environments, ensure the battery is securely mounted. It should not be used in areas with severe vibrations, such as tractors.
3. Secure Fastening: Ensure the battery is fastened securely when used with outboard engines or in unstable environments to prevent damage from movement.
4. Cable Length Considerations: Position the battery as close to the outboard motor as possible, as varying cable lengths can result in voltage loss. If the voltage drop exceeds this range, reduce the total cable length.
Yes. With 1200 CCA @14°F and 1300 MCA @32°F, it can reliably crank outboard motors up to 300HP, including Mercury, Honda, Suzuki, Evinrude, and Tohatsu. Before purchasing, check that your motor's required CCA is ≤1200A. If you're unsure, share your motor's CCA/MCA requirements and alternator charging current, and we'll help confirm compatibility.
Yes, you can connect the battery in series and parallel. But here are some limitations to follow:
1. For Starting and Deep Cycle:
Support connecting up to 4 identical batteries in parallel for up to:12V(12.8V) 660Ah battery system.
Note: It can only be connected in parallel instead of a series connection.
2. For ONLY Energy Storage:
Support connecting up to 16 identical batteries for up to: 4 in series as a 48V (51.2V) battery system or 4 in parallel as a 660Ah battery system.
To connect in series or parallel, batteries should meet the following conditions:
a. identical batteries with the same battery capacity (Ah) and BMS (A);
b. from the same brand (as lithium batteries from different brands have their special BMS);
c. purchased in near time (within one month).
1. Charge before first use: The battery may arrive with low SOC due to shipping/storage. Fully charge it with a LiFePO4 charger before use to avoid over-discharge.
2. Starting requirements: Battery voltage must be above 11.5V to start a motor. Each start should not exceed 3 seconds; if it fails, wait 15 seconds before retrying. After 3 failed attempts, wait 5 minutes and check for other causes.
3. Bluetooth activation: Some Bluetooth batteries may arrive “off,” showing 3–5V. This is normal. Simply connect to an AC-DC LiFePO4 charger or MPPT solar controller for 3–10 seconds to activate.
4. Storage tips: For long-term storage, charge to 50% SOC and recharge every 3 months to maintain performance.
Yes. The 12V 165Ah marine starting battery is rated IP67 waterproof and dustproof. However, it should not be fully submerged in bilge water. For added protection, we recommend installing it in a waterproof battery box or mounting it in an elevated or sheltered position such as inside the cabin.
Great product.
So far so good. I took the boat out the other day and fished for 4 hours and I didn’t lose 1% of charge. This battery is being primarily used as a starter, runs two hummingbird units, and powers my console. I love the Bluetooth and being able to see how much charge is on it.The range on the Bluetooth is impressive and I can check the status in my house.
This battery is the perfect cranking battery and is self-heated for colder climates that need charging. With 165AH of power, you can go all day and all night! This gives so much peace of mind knowing you can start and charge on the water!
Installed the Li-Time 165ah as my starting / electronics battery in my boat. Mercury 75hp starts easy, electronics function perfectly. Also added two 100ah Li-TimeTrollers for 24v pairing. Ive been running the Trollers flawlessly for coming up 3 years.
Fantastic product. I was running 2 group 27 batteries to start my big motor and run my electronics and still by the end of tournament day I had to be careful or I couldn’t crank the big motor. After a full day of use I still have over 70% left on this battery with no power drop. As an added bonus by getting rid of the 2 cranking batteries and the 3 trolling batteries I replaced with the LiTime 36V 100A I’ve removed almost 200 pounds from the boat. Performance increased dramatically
Delivered within 3 days perfect condition and great packaging to protect the battery in the delivery process.
I just got it mounted in the boat. It is a bit larger than the class 27 batteries. But, it does fit the battery box.
Bluetooth capabilities to monitor usage, lightweight and peace of mind knowing I have plenty of power for fishing all day long while still running multiple electronics in the Z21 Nitro 👍👍
