Highly-compatible with a wide range of electrical systems commonly used in recreational vehicles and 4x4s, off-grid and mobile power systems. Designed and built in Australia with quality parts and workmanship, with performance and longevity in mind. A versatile, durable, user-friendly power solution powering your next trip away and many adventures to come.PowerPaul’s lithium batteries are proudly Australian-made and owned, delivering reliable performance for your RV, marine, and off-grid power needs.Compact and versatile slimline lithium batteryThe Nifty slimline lithium battery provides big-power and optimum energy storage in tight spaces, where there is a restricted installation area for your battery. Its slimline profile (515mm x280mm x78mm) and reduced support infrastructure is critical for small equipment compartments and spaces with minimum overall storage availability such as in small RV’s, campervans, boats, tiny homes and off-grid locations.At 19.5kg, the compact Nifty is easily transportable and can be safely positioned on the back of a ute tray, canopy or behind your rear seat. It will charge and discharge between temperatures of 0-60C° and will continue to discharge to -20C°, making it versatile for use in both hot and cold climates for the flexibility you need, wherever you are.High-capacity slimline lithium battery – with big powerThe Nifty 160 Ah slimline lithium battery certainly packs a punch for its size. Whether you are travelling, working in the shed or powering remote off-grid equipment, the Nifty will easily cover your power needs without impacting performance or frequent recharging. Power your lighting, portable refrigerators, cooking appliances, heating and cooling, power tools, navigation, entertainment, specialist equipment and more with safe, reliable performance in many environments.Featuring M8 terminals (standard for many applications) the Nifty offers high-current, high- reliability connections and easy integration into most electrical setups, capable of powering a 3000w inverter when you need it to. With around 2000 watt-hours discharge capacity and slimline shape, the Nifty also offers a unique opportunity for modular power setups in restricted spaces, with customisable expandability for specific power needs. This can be achieved by connecting 2, 3 or even 4 Nifty slimline lithium batteries together using parallel connections, for even more storage capacity and longer overall run time.The Nifty slimline battery can also be used for essential back-up power, or to jump start your car battery in an emergency.Durable slimline lithium battery that’s built to lastThe Nifty features high-energy density to handle frequent charge-discharge cycles and delivery of consistent power over a longer life cycle (up to around 10 years, depending on usage) providing an extended lifespan for your investment. It also has a 5A active balancer installed for active cell balancing to optimise the health and efficiency of the battery and protect against degradation. It’s built with high-quality EV Grade CALB battery cells, a powder-coated 1.5mm steel case and robust construction for durability in demanding environments (like marine or off-road adventures) for withstanding vibrations, shocks and temperature variations.Reliable performance and quality you can rely onEach battery manufactured by PowerPaul Australia features the latest software and extensive set-up procedures. We tailor and refine BMS performance for protection from damage due to faults (such as over/under voltage or over current) and the highest accuracy and SOC readings possible, so your system runs perfectly. Every battery is calibrated, load-tested and fully cycled at least twice to confirm and rate its capacity and quality. The design of the battery internals, bus bars, BMS program settings and firmware is all done in-house by our team with a high level of experience, expert knowledge and testing.Slimline lithium battery with bluetoothA key feature of the Nifty Slimline Lithium Battery is the Daly 250A BMS (battery management system) which has Bluetooth connectivity. Connect to your Nifty using the Apps available for iPhone and Android and use remote monitoring to check charging and discharging status (and more) and use it as a handy tool for fault-finding within your electrical system. Rename and personalise your slimline lithium battery in your Bluetooth list of devices.The Nifty also features an LED display showing charge status and a manual button for BMS reset (this button also wakes up the battery if it has gone to sleep after being fully discharged). You can choose from an internal or external display, either standard or enhanced. The Regular Display provides a quick approximate SOC visual guide in 4 steps. The Enhanced Display provides a four-bar visual SOC display as well as voltage, current, temperature, status and SOC reading.For a simplified version of the Nifty (without Bluetooth), take a look at the Nifty Lite 12.8v 160 Ah Slimline Lithium Battery.What’s the difference compared to the Nifty Lite?https://powerpaul.com.au/blog/the-difference-between-lite-and-regular-powerpaul-batteries/Applications for the Nifty Slimline Lithium BatteryPowerPaul’s Nifty Slimline Lithium Battery offers reliable, high-powered energy storage in exchange for little space!
