Enerdrive B-TEC 100Ah Lithium Battery
Available in 12v 100Ah, 125Ah, 200Ah and 300Ah capacities and 24v 100Ah & 36v 100Ah, the B-TEC lithium battery is designed and intended for use in deep cycle applications where a single battery is required that meets the amp hour capacity.
The new Enerdrive B-Tec 100Ah has replaced the Enerdrive 12V 100Ah eLITE Lithium Battery.
Smart Phone Monitoring System: The Enerdrive Enerdrive B-TEC G2 battery incorporates wireless Battery Monitoring Technology. By downloading the Android™ or Apple® app to your smartphone or tablet device, you can monitor the following information;
|
Battery Capacity |
Battery Voltage |
Battery Current (Amps) |
|
Battery State of Charge (SOC) |
Battery State of Health (SOH) |
Battery Status |
|
Individual Cell Voltage |

Battery Management System: The battery is also equipped with an internal Battery Management System that can monitor and optimise each Prismatic cell within the battery during normal operation. It will protect the battery pack from over charge, over discharge, over temperature & short circuit. The BMS helps to ensure safe and accurate operation of the battery.
Size & Weight Savings: Lithium v AGM Capacities;
- 100Ah Lithium = 160Ah AGM
- (Based on standard depth of discharge for both Lithium (80%) and AGM (50%).
The Enerdrive B-TEC battery provides 60% more usable power than its equivalent lead acid cousin and being nearly 50% lighter and 30% smaller makes for a superior alternative.
The G2 now incorporates a “Built-In Reset Button” making re-starting a flat battery a breeze. No longer do you need to apply a voltage to the battery terminals to wake up the battery. Press the button and within seconds, the battery will come back to life ready to accept a charge source to rejuvenate the battery.
The Enerdrive B-TEC battery is perfect for camper trailers, 4WD’s (AUX battery), caravans, small water craft, low power communication sites or any other application that requires the use of a single deep cycle battery that meets the amp hour capacity.
With over 7 years of researching, designing and testing lithium batteries and the associated charging systems, Enerdrive are at the forefront of lithium battery systems in Australia. Enerdrive are the only Australian company that can supply a fully integrated self-branded energy system to suit your setup.
With over 3000 complete systems in operation Australia wide, Enerdrive is regarded as the leader in the field of lithium batteries and energy systems for Mobile, Marine and Remote applications.
Please Note; The B-TEC battery is capable to be paralleled to a second B-TEC battery of the same size. For maximum performance and lifespan of your B-TEC battery, no more than 4 batteries should be connected together to increase your overall capacity. Overall loads when paralleled should not exceed the current limits of a single battery’s BMS.
The 100Ah G2 battery is able to accept a maximum inverter capacity of 1000W only. Exceeding the maximum inverter capacity can damage the BMS Management within the battery.
If you are requiring a battery system larger than Enerdrive B-TEC battery, please look at the Enerdrive Pro Series Power Pack Systems which can offer multiple parallel and series connections with Active Cell Balancing Protection across the entire pack.
Please note B-TEC batteries must not be installed –
- In vehicle engine bays or in high heat environments, refer to Section 10 – Battery Specifications of the manual.
- In wet areas such as caravan chassis mounts, open ute trays or boat deck areas.
- Inside compartments dedicated to carrying gas.
This product is not suitable to mount anywhere with a possibility of being exposed to the elements. It is an electronic product designed for internal use ONLY.
Circuit Protection: The battery is supplied with a LiFePO4 Battery Management System BMS that can monitor and optimize each single prismatic cell during charge & discharge, to protect the battery pack from overcharge, over discharge & short circuit. Overall, the BMS helps to ensure safe and accurate operation of the battery.

Q & A
-
What size battery do I need for my caravan?
Great question! Your deep cycle battery for your caravan will be a minimum of 100 Amp Hours (Ah). The average size for a Caravan is 200Ah. Usually, 2 x 100Ah connected in Parallel. However, if your budget allows to upgrade to a Lithium battery you can get a lot more power for the size of the battery. For example, a 200Ah lithium battery can be equivalent to up to 360 Ah of an AGM battery. To work out exactly what size you require you need to first look at the load you are planning on drawing. The load should be calculated in Amps per hour, or Amp Hours (Ah). Batteries are rated in Amp Hours (Ah) as well. So, if you are drawing a 50Ah per day, a 100Ah AGM battery can provide power for about 1 day as you do not want to draw more than 50% from your battery. However, it is not always easy to find what each appliance draws. Some popular examples are following:
- 150L 12V Fridge = 2.5 Amps per hour (2.5Ah) - runs for 24 hours a day
- 12V Water Pump = 3.5 Amps per hour (3.5Ah) - only runs for 1 hour a day
- Phone Charger = 0.5 Amps per hour (0.5Ah) - Maybe 4 hours per day
- 12V Fan = 4 Amps per hour (4Ah) - Maybe 4 hours per day
Then you will need to factor in how much charge you are putting in Daily. The charge comes in the way of Solar and in car charging via a DC to DC charger. Ideally you want enough charge input per day to cover the load drawn, then enough battery storage to last 2 - 3 days without charge.
-
What is best - AGM or lithium battery?
The answer is simple. Lithium is a better product than AGM. Lithium is lighter, more compact, and powerful, it will also last longer. However, a lithium battery will cost more, because it is a highly sort after product. Almost everything that has a battery nowadays will have a lithium battery. Mobile phone, Electric Car, Electric Bike and Skateboard just to name a few. There are situations where you can get away with an AGM battery. If you only need about 100ah (most 4 x 4 set ups), you can purchase 1 x 100ah battery and a battery box and away you go. However, once you start getting into the larger amperages (200+) it really makes more sense to turn to lithium.
-
How do I charge my caravan battery?
There are three ways to charge your caravan Battery. Either:
- AC to DC - This is using a traditional battery charger that plugs into mains power.
- DC to DC - This is a battery charger connected between the start battery of your tow vehicle and the Caravan Battery. This will charge the battery whilst driving.
- Solar - Solar panels on your roof can be connected to a solar charge controller then to your Caravan Battery.
-
How much solar do I need to keep my caravan battery charged?
Ideally, you want use as much solar as you can fit on the roof. Extra portable solar panels are also good idea if you want to park your van in the shade and run a portable panel from a lead in the sun - please see our solar range here. Solar is cheap relative to the rest of your system, and it provides so much of your power when you are camping off grid. However, the solar required depends on the load.

Enerdrive Lithium Batteries -Support is Good
By: Allan Bromwich on13 April 2024
Just purchased 2 x 100Ah Enerdrive lithium batteries for the camper complete with AC and DC2DC chargers. Purchased from Caravan RV Camping, and supplied direct from enerdrive. All wired up and ready to test and one of the batteries was faulty. Second battery was fine and allowed testing the system to be completed. Got in touch with Enerdrive support who asked me to check a few things, then requested I package the battery up and they would get it back and test it. They have since confirmed there was a problem with a wire connection in the internal BMS, have fixed it quickly and are sending it back, all free of charge, as expected. The point here is that you can get a faulty product; it is how the support reacts that determines how you are left feeling. Enerdrive stepped up to the plate and sorted the problem with a minimum of fuss. Full credit to them. Caravan RV Camping indicated that if we had any issues with Enerdrive support, then to contact them and they would see if they could also assist from their end. We were not left high and dry. Now just waiting on the repaired battery and we can get rolling again. Not happy that we had a fault, but very happy with the way it has been sorted.

I have been a big fan off the Enerdrive range of products, they have been of high quality but not excessive pricing. They work well and i still have plenty more to purchase to become completely of grid in the future reliably.
Enerdrive lithium battery.
By: Raymond & Kerry Thomas on23 September 2023
Only just fitted the batteries. Going on a six week trip next week, so should get a good workout. Tech support has been brilliant, with good info in answer to my questions.
