Product Highlights
  • 12V 460Ah V2 Elite Series LiFePO4 Battery (5.89kWh): 12.8V nominal, 460Ah and 5,888Wh (5.89kWh) of nominal stored energy in one managed case with one BMS, so a large house bank needs fewer interconnects and cleaner routing than a bank of smaller batteries. A deep-cycle battery for house power and energy storage, not engine starting.
  • Dimensions & Fit: 20.86" L x 8.65" W x 12.06" H (529.8 x 219.8 x 306.3 mm; the height includes the terminal posts), 97 lb (approx. 44 kg). Install it upright. Replacing a Group 8D lead-acid battery? Confirm tray fit, hold-down and lid clearance against these dimensions first; the optional Epoch V2 & V2-T Mounting Hardware (8D battery bracket, sold separately) fastens to the six M8 nuts on the case.
  • Native VICTRON Communications: CAN bus at 500 kbit/s to a compatible Victron GX device (Cerbo GX, Ekrano GX or Cerbo GX Mk2). The battery reports its status and charge limits, and with DVCC on it sets the charge voltage and current limits of Victron chargers. The communication harness is included; set the DIP switches and GX settings per the manual.
  • Elite Performance Specifications: 230A continuous discharge and 230A continuous charge (0.5C, also the recommended rate), about 2,944W DC at 12.8V before inverter losses. Peak discharge of 500A for 30 seconds and 1,300A for 1 second for inverter surge; up to 400A charge for 5 seconds.
  • BLUETOOTH Battery Intelligence: Bluetooth 4.0 through the included battery gauge. The Epoch Li-Ion app (iOS and Android) shows state of charge, voltage, current, cell voltages, temperatures, history and warnings, and installs firmware updates over the air. External power button and battery gauge included.
  • HEATED For Extreme Climates: LiFePO4 cells must not be charged below 0°C (32°F). When a charger is connected and the cells are too cold, the BMS holds off charging while the internal heater, powered by the charge source, warms them; charging resumes at 5°C (41°F). With self-heating, charging is supported from -30°C (-22°F) ambient. Discharge works down to -20°C (-4°F).
  • IP67 Rated Enclosure: Dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion in up to 1m of water for 30 minutes. It is not rated for water jets, pressure washing or continuous submersion: install it where it stays dry in normal use, with all harness connectors fully seated.
  • Scalable Banks: Up to 16 batteries in parallel (7,360Ah, 94.21kWh) or up to 4 in series (51.2V nominal), using matched C12460A batteries of the same age, capacity and state of charge. Series-parallel arrays are not covered by the published DIP switch settings; contact Epoch before designing one.
  • Advanced Smart BMS & Certifications: Over/under-voltage, overcurrent, short-circuit and high/low temperature protection, and a 400A internal fuse (UL 60691). UL 1642, UL 9540A and IEC 62619:2022 cells; CE and RoHS. The internal fuse does not replace system protection: install a DC-rated fuse or breaker close to the battery positive.
  • 3,500+ Cycle Life & 11-Year Limited Warranty: 3,500+ cycles to 70% remaining capacity at 25°C. Maintenance-free: no watering or equalizing, though regular inspection and 8–12 N·m terminal torque checks keep the system safe. Backed by an 11-year limited warranty (5 years of free repair or replacement, then 40% off MSRP on a replacement battery through Year 11); register within 90 days or keep your proof of purchase.

Seamless Victron CANBUS Communication

A premium 12V battery for Cerbo GX, Ekrano GX, and compatible Victron-based power systems.

For advanced RV, marine, and off-grid installers, Victron integration is one of the biggest reasons to choose this Epoch V2 Elite battery. The battery’s BMS CAN communication is designed to connect with compatible Victron GX devices, helping your system see battery status, alarms, and BMS-managed charging behavior from the Victron ecosystem.

When configured correctly with the proper cable, DIP switch settings, and DVCC setup, this Victron compatible lithium battery helps reduce guesswork in complex power systems while still giving you app-based Bluetooth monitoring as a secondary battery dashboard.

Massive 5.89kWh Energy Density in a Single Case

Instead of building a bank from four or more smaller 100Ah-class batteries, this Epoch 12V 460Ah battery gives you 5,888Wh / 5.89kWh of nominal stored energy in one 20.86 × 8.65 × 12.06 in case with one BMS. Fewer batteries means fewer interconnect cables, fewer resistance points, cleaner routing, and more usable cargo space in an RV, boat, van, or off-grid enclosure.

Built-In Heating for Sub-Zero Environments

LiFePO4 cells must not be charged below 0°C (32°F). When shore power, solar, an alternator charger or an inverter/charger starts charging and the cells are too cold, the BMS holds off normal charging while the internal heater, powered by the charge source, warms the cells; charging resumes once they reach 5°C (41°F). With self-heating, charging is supported from -30°C (-22°F) ambient, and discharge is available down to -20°C (-4°F) without heating.

IP67 Enclosure & Bluetooth Monitoring

The sealed IP67 case is dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion in up to 1 m of water for 30 minutes. It is not rated for water jets, pressure washing or continuous submersion, so install it where it stays dry in normal use, with all harness connectors fully seated. Bluetooth 4.0 monitoring through the included battery gauge shows state of charge, voltage, current, cell voltages, temperatures and warnings in the Epoch Li-Ion app, which also installs firmware updates over the air.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a special cable to connect this battery to my Victron Cerbo GX?

For a single battery, no. The included communication harness has a grey RJ45 plug that goes into the GX device’s BMS-CAN port (Cerbo GX or Ekrano GX); on a Cerbo GX Mk2, use VE.Can 1 or VE.Can 2 and set the port speed to 500 kbit/s. For a bank, add RJ45 cables that link each battery’s black port to the next battery’s blue port, up to 16 batteries in parallel. Set the DIP switches on every battery, then turn on DVCC and set the controlling BMS and the battery monitor to Epoch before commissioning the system.

Can I wire multiple 12V 460Ah batteries together for a larger solar bank?

Yes. This battery supports large system expansion when installed according to Epoch guidelines. You can connect up to 16 batteries in parallel for higher amp-hour capacity, such as two batteries for 920Ah / 11.78kWh of nominal storage. Use matched batteries, balanced cabling, properly sized busbars, fusing, and lithium-compatible charging equipment.

What is the continuous discharge rate of the 12V 460Ah battery?

The Epoch 12V 460Ah V2 Elite battery is rated for 230A maximum continuous discharge, with 500A discharge for 30 seconds and 1,300A peak output for 1 second. In a properly designed 12V system, that makes it suitable for large inverter-class loads, marine house banks, RV power systems, and off-grid storage. Always size cables, fuses, busbars, and inverters around the full system current.

How does the single 460Ah design compare to multiple 100Ah batteries?

A single 460Ah battery can simplify large 12V systems by reducing the number of interconnect cables, terminals, parallel balance points, and physical batteries required. Instead of building a bank from several 100Ah-class batteries, one high-capacity battery gives you 5.89kWh of storage in one managed case with one BMS, Bluetooth monitoring, Victron communication, internal heating, and IP67 protection.
