Battery Conversions
Besides completely repowering a boat, it is also possible to improve another aspect of the existing electrical installation, the batteries. Most boats that are a bit older still use GEL or AGM batteries, which are big, heavy, and not the best performing option available. STOK Electric offers conversions from Lead Acidbatteries to Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePo4 or LFP) batteries. These batteries offer many advantages: they are exceptionally light, safe, and powerful. They can be discharged completely and take far less time to be recharged. Unlike other lithium batterychemistries, LFP batteries cannot self-ignite. Also, the energyflow is monitored by a BMS which can automatically disconnect the batteries if something is not right.
