Forklift lithium battery and lead-acid battery which is good?

Forklift battery development is now mainly divided into two categories, one is forklift lithium battery, the other is forklift lead-acid battery. So forklift battery is lithium battery or lead-acid battery is good?
1, in terms of cycle life, forklift lithium battery is better than forklift lead-acid battery

I believe we all know that many people on the Internet say that the life of lithium batteries is 300 to 500 cycles, which is shorter than lead-acid batteries, which is not wrong? In fact, the forklift lithium battery that we are talking about now refers to the lithium iron phosphate battery rather than the general lithium iron phosphate battery that we often say is used for 3C electronic products, the theoretical service life of lithium iron phosphate battery is more than 2000 cycles, which is much longer than the life of lead-acid battery.

2, in terms of discharge performance, forklift lithium battery is better than forklift lead-acid battery

In terms of discharge performance, on the one hand, the forklift lithium battery is much larger than the forklift battery in terms of large current discharge, which can continue to discharge at 35C rate, providing more powerful power, and heavier and more goods can be lifted. On the other hand, in terms of charging, the forklift lithium battery provides a fast charging ratio of 3C to 5C, which is much faster than the charging speed of the forklift lead-acid battery, saving a lot of charging time, and greatly improving the working time and efficiency.
3, in terms of environmental friendliness, forklift lithium battery is better than forklift lead-acid battery

The raw materials used in forklift lithium batteries are environmentally friendly and pollution-free, and the relative cost of recycling and recycling is low. The raw materials used in forklift lead-acid batteries contain lead, which is very harmful to environmental pollution, and the harm to animals and people is very great. Therefore, under the development of green environmental protection, lithium batteries instead of lead-acid batteries is an inevitable trend.

4, from the installation, replacement and maintenance of forklift lithium battery is better than forklift lead-acid battery

In the case of the same capacity and discharge requirements, the forklift lithium battery is lighter and smaller, and it is much more convenient than the heavy forklift lead-acid battery in the battery replacement operation, saving time and improving work efficiency.

5, from the safety performance of forklift lithium battery than forklift lead-acid battery slightly worse

This is mainly from the battery unit consistency and energy density, forklift lithium battery due to the energy density is relatively much larger, coupled with the current technology is relatively poor, so it is difficult to manufacture lithium battery cells in the capacity, internal resistance, voltage to achieve consistency, there will be a certain error. In this respect, lead-acid batteries will be relatively better, so the safety performance is relatively better.
6, from the battery price, forklift lithium battery is slightly more expensive than forklift lead-acid battery

Forklift lithium batteries are more expensive than forklift batteries in terms of raw material cost or manufacturing process cost, so forklift lithium batteries are more expensive than forklift batteries on the market. However, because the forklift lithium battery greatly improves the work efficiency of the forklift, it can make up for the difference.
