U.S. Battery

U.S. BATTERY– Made in the U.S.A

For close to a century, the U.S. Battery company have been on a mission to power industries with the highest quality and longest lasting batteries available on the market. U.S. Battery developed their lead acid batteries with Xtreme Capacity 2^TM formulation and Diamond Plate Technology® and have now also introduced the exclusive Essential Li® series of Lithium-ion batteries.

R&J Batteries is proudly the exclusive U.S. Battery distributor for Australia and New Zealand. Our company-owned branches and selected U.S. Battery stockists supply the complete deep-cycle range of 6V, 8V & 12V lead acid and lithium-ion (LiFePO₄) batteries suitable for: golf carts, electric vehicles, floor machines, hire & rental equipment, renewable energy and marine or recreational vehicle applications.

U.S. Battery – Deep-Cycle Batteries

U.S. Battery Company has been building flooded lead acid batteries since 1926 and are 100% manufactured in the USA including the 6-volt, 8-volt & 12-volt deep cycle range.

These deep-cycle batteries are built with Xtreme Capacity 2 (XC2) Diamond Plate Technology making U.S. Batteries the best choice for applications where batteries are subjected to deep discharge and fast recharge on a daily or regular basis.

This new technology consists of synthetic tetrabasic lead sulphate (TTBLS) additive in the paste mix which provides controlled crystal sizes and results in the enhanced performance, charging and life characteristics of U.S. Battery’s deep-cycle products.

U.S. Battery’s Xtreme Capacity Diamond Plate Technology provides:

Increased Initial Capacity
Synthetic TTBLS (tetrabasic lead sulfate) additive in the paste mix provides uniformly controlled crystal size of the resulting TTBLS in the cured plate and higher conversion efficiency of TTBLS to lead dioxide in the formed positive plate giving higher capacity.

Higher Peak Capacity
The same controlled TTBLS crystal size results in a higher conversion of TTBLS to lead dioxide in the cycled positive plate with greater and more uniform porosity and surface area for higher peak capacity.

Improved Energy Density and Specific Energy
Since there is no increase in the size or weight of the battery, higher capacity translates to improved energy density (watt-hours/liter) and specific energy (watt-hours/kilogram).

Enhanced Recharge-ability
The more uniform crystal structure of the formed positive plate results in enhanced recharge-ability particularly at low temperature and from varying states of discharge.

Fortified Plate Construction
Improved Vibration and Shock Resistance. The more uniformly controlled TTBLS crystal size results in a stronger crystal network within the formed positive plate active material resulting in decreased shedding from vibration and shock.

Improved Life Cycle
The stronger crystal network within the formed positive plate active material also results in decreased shedding from deep cycling – the primary failure mode in deep cycle batteries.

U.S. Battery – ESSENTIAL Li^® Lithium-ion Batteries

U.S. Battery have introduced the new ESSENTIAL Li^® Lithium-ion battery series to their already diverse range of reliable batteries. These batteries use LiFePO₄ chemistry which is one of the safest lithium chemistries available as they are not susceptible to thermal runaway. This new range gives users additional choice in their battery purchase, giving them a long-lasting, lightweight and maintenance free alternative to lead acid batteries. With a cycle life up to 3 times more than a standard lead acid battery, these ESSENTIAL Li batteries are designed to be ‘the only battery you need’.

Golf Cart & Utility

Battery powered golf carts and electric vehicles have unique power requirements that U.S. Battery understands.

Maintaining peak capacity for longer periods between charges, means greater vehicle reliability and lower annual operating costs. This is why U.S. Battery has developed industry leading lead acid batteries as well as the new long lasting ESSENTIAL Li alternative.

Industrial Equipment

Industrial applications like scissor lifts, access equipment and floor machines require an efficient and reliable power source that U.S. Battery products can easily provide.

U.S. Battery has developed both lead acid deep cycle batteries and the ESSENTIAL Li Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries suitable for industrial equipment. The lead acid battery range has sizes to suit various industrial applications and have been engineered with exclusive XC2™ and Diamond Plate Technology®. These features produce deep cycle batteries capable of maintaining peak capacity for longer periods between charges, delivering the highest total energy over the life of the batteries while lowering operating costs. These technologies also result in the industry’s most efficient battery plates, leading to greater watt-hours per litre and watt-hours per kilogram than any other flooded lead-acid battery on the market.

• Improved energy density (watt-hours per litre) and specific energy (watt-hours per =kilogram)
• Enhanced rechargeability; costs less to charge
• Fortified plate construction provides a stronger crystal network for decreased shedding of positive plates

Also suitable for: Electric Trolling Motors, Marine & RV House Power, Camping, Off Grid Cabins, Remote Power, UPS Systems, Pumps, Dual Battery Kits, Electric Vehicles, Roadside Signs/Arrow Boards.

The ESSENTIAL Li range has also been designed with maximum operating time in mind. With faster recharging and a long cycle life they minimise downtime while providing reliable, maintenance free power. These batteries are an ideal upgrade for applications using GC2 or other popular industrial sizes that don’t have a pre-determined weight specification. Sizes available are:

• US12VG24
• US24VGC2
• US24VGC2
• US48V105

Solar & Renewable Energy Storage

The Renewable Energy (RE) Series of lead acid batteries are designed to provide the highest peak capacity, longest cycle life, and greatest reliability for powering your off-grid locations, or those connected to the grid and needing backup power, energy storage and self-consumption.

The RE Series batteries also utilize the company’s exclusive XC2™ formulation and Diamond Plate Technology® to create the most efficient battery plates for energy storage. With a wide range of deep cycle battery sizes, we can ensure you get the right solution for your renewable energy storage requirements.

Sizes include;

• Group 24, 27 & 31
• GC2, GC8
• J250, J305, L16, J185 and more.
