Practical guides from the Torphan range: how forklift battery voltages map to truck classes, what lithium really costs against lead-acid over a truck's life, how to size home storage, and what the electronics inside a LiFePO4 pack actually do. Every guide is written against the datasheets published on this site's product pages.

Lithium vs Lead-Acid Forklift Batteries: Total Cost ComparedLithium vs lead-acid forklift battery cost over the truck life: purchase price, cycle life, charging energy, maintenance labour and battery-room space compared. Forklift Battery Voltages: 24V, 36V, 48V and 80V ExplainedHow forklift battery voltage classes map to truck types: 24V pallet jacks, 36V narrow-aisle trucks, 48V counterbalance and 80V heavy-duty machines. LiFePO4 vs Lithium-Ion: Which Chemistry Fits Your Project?LiFePO4 vs lithium-ion compared on safety, cycle life, temperature behaviour and cost per cycle for forklift and storage projects. Home Battery Storage Sizing: How Many kWh Does a House Need?Home battery storage sizing worked through with real load lists: backup-only, solar self-consumption and whole-home cases matched to 5.12-28.6 kWh systems. Opportunity Charging for Lithium Forklift FleetsOpportunity charging explained: how short top-ups in breaks let one lithium battery cover two or three shifts, and what chargers and routines it needs. Solar Battery Storage: On-Grid, Off-Grid and Hybrid SystemsSolar battery storage systems compared: on-grid, off-grid and hybrid architectures, and how the battery bank is sized and connected in each. What Does a BMS Do in a LiFePO4 Battery Pack?What a battery management system actually does: cell monitoring, protection cut-offs, state of charge, balancing and communication with chargers and inverters. Golf Cart Lithium Conversion: 36V and 48V BasicsGolf cart lithium conversion basics for 36V and 48V carts: what the kit includes, how the swap works and what changes in daily charging and care.
