As part of the DSC Group’s current expansion in Japan, where our next branch office is scheduled to open in Q4, DSC Energy has commenced mass production of a new, high-performance lithium-ion battery pack at our manufacturing partners’ facilities in China.

Based on a proven LiFePO₄ platform we previously developed for one of our North American customers, this UL-certified battery pack features a high-current, fourth-generation BMS with 1C continuous charge/discharge capability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including golf carts, work and recreational vehicles, and autonomous systems such as floor care machines.

It can safely operate even in a partial state of charge, and delivers double the runtime, up to 10 times the cycle life, and 5 times faster charging than a similar lead-acid battery — with less than half the weight.

A drop-in replacement for lead-acid, in a familiar format

End users in Japan and elsewhere will benefit from this product’s standard form factor, which allows for hassle-free replacement of BCI GC2-sized lead-acid batteries, including many common 12 V, 24 V, 36 V, and 48 V battery models. In practice, this will empower equipment owners, giving them the ability to move on to a more advanced and feature-rich lithium-ion battery without having to redesign trays, cable routes, or service routines, keeping existing platforms in operation while improving day-to-day usability.

This new product reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering highly [customized battery services](/services ““Discover our range of professional battery and energy storage services”) to customers worldwide. Whether they prefer to import finished products from one of our trusted OEM/ODM partners or establish their own local production line for SKD/CKD assembly with our support, DSC has the right solutions — with flexible collaboration models tailored to the requirements of each market and customer.
