Lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries are the most commonly employed battery technologies in forklifts. A fully functional lead-acid battery lasts on average about five till seven years whereas compared to its counterpart the longevity of lithium-ion batteries exceeds a decade or more.
Higher quality batteries ordinarily have a longer lifespan than lower-quality batteries.
You should clean and equalize your battery regularly if you want to increase its longevity. Neglecting these duties could cause a noticeable drop in the length of time that your battery lasts.
A battery's lifespan shortens with increased usage, so the more often a forklift is utilized on a daily basis, the shorter its battery life will be compared to one that sees lighter usage.
Lead-acid batteries that are well-maintained can last nearly five-seven years of service; an equivalent of over one thousand five hundred charge cycles, whereas a Lithium-ion based power source is capable of powering up the forklift battery which could last up to 10 years or even more with over 3000 charging cycles.
