Eonyx EV Battery

Our Eonyx advanced EV Battery represents a revolution in light electric vehicle power. With a constant output capability of nearly 6 Kilowatts at 48 volts, Eonyx powers even Phoenix motors with ease. Eonyx enables more people to enjoy electric commuting by more than doubling the range of lead acid batteries while cutting weight almost in half. Eonyx comes in voltages from 12 volts to 144 volts and can be used on any electric vehicle that requires up to 120 amps continuous power.

We get calls every day from people asking about LiFePO4 batteries they see on websites and ebay. We have plenty of first-hand experience. After spending a huge amount of money working with several manufacturers over the last 2 1/2 years, we have very few good packs to show for it. The majority are garbage.

Which battery do you think is the best value? Chinese LiFePO4 or Eonyx by LiFeBatt? Read on...

Chinese LiFePO4 battery packs

You are looking at a small sampling of tens of thousands of dollars worth of LiFePO4 batteries we purchased from several Chinese manufacturers over the last 2 1/2 years. The ones in bubble wrap are leaking so badly we left them taped up. Of the packs we purchased, only a tiny percentage of them could be placed into service. Be smart. Learn from our experience.

Note the use of tape to hold things together. Some Chinese packs are held together with shrink tubing or duct tape. We've even seen packs compressed into metal boxes to keep the cells from expanding. Not only dangerous, but squeezing them doesn't stop the damage to the cells. Obviously, something's got to give as these cells become disfigured.

Eonyx manufactured by LiFeBatt in Taiwan
36 volt 20 AH Eonyx LiFePO4 battery pack that can run any of our systems, including Phoenix. $1410

48 volt 20 AH Eonyx LiFePO4 battery pack that can run any of our systems, including Phoenix. $1880
Cell Specs   VMS Specs
Inside Eonyx: Cylindrical cells. Note the top quality intercell connections and custom packaging. No duct tape here! Inside Eonyx: Battery Management System equalizes cells, manages discharge rate (limits to 140 amps), computer interface, GPS interface. Neat, clean, professionally made.

Can you see a difference? The question you have to ask yourself is: Is a cheap battery that doesn't work a good value? If you think it is, we'll match up 16 cells and a BMS, duct tape the pack together for you, and match the lowest price you can find. We don't know what to do with the hundreds of Chinese packs we have, so if you're going to throw your money away, might as well throw it at us.

If you are still not convinced, ask your Chinese manufacturer for cell specs. Compare them to the cell specs of Eonyx by LiFeBatt. We've seen specs showing 48V 40A continuous discharge rate, but recommended for an 800 watt system. Makes no sense at all (a 48V 40A pack should run a 1920 watt system). Then ask for the BMS specs. Ask if it equalizes the cells. If you're told that equalization happens over a period of time, that means the BMS does not equalize, and the period of time they're talking about is probably longer than the life of their battery pack.

If you decide you want a LiFePO4 battery pack that is guaranteed by a US company, choose Eonyx by LiFeBatt. LiFeBatt guarantees it will run any of our systems, including Phoenix. No other LiFePO4 battery pack we have tested will do that job. If you are a manufacturer, and you think your battery pack will run Phoenix, send it to us. We will publish the results - good or bad - on this page. We will return the pack to you after testing. No takers? No surprise.

To order your Eonyx battery pack, call LiFeBatt. Be sure to ask for Eonyx by name so our rep will know exactly what you need. When you order Eonyx, the battery will ship directly to you and a special low voltage cutoff circuit will be shipped to ElectricRider. ElectricRider will supply your charger, manufactured by Soneil specifically for Eonyx. Phoenix, RoadRunner and Sparrow customers will receive a fully assembled connectivity kit with the low voltage cutoff, charger port, keyswitch, and fuse along with their charger to connect the battery pack to the controller. This is a well-coordinated effort between ElectricRider and LiFeBatt to bring you the very best battery technology available anywhere at any price. ElectricRider will begin offering Eonyx by LiFeBatt from our own warehouse early in 2009.
