Canbat Technologies Inc.

Canbat Technologies Inc., Canadian manufacturer of batteries and energy systems

Canbat Technologies Inc. is a Canadian company dedicated to manufacturing deep-cycle and backup batteries. Its catalog includes sealed lead-acid (SLA) batteries, lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries, and lead-carbon batteries, as well as lithium battery chargers and power converters. The company exports its products worldwide and targets markets such as recreational vehicles (RV), marine, renewable energy, robotics, telecommunications, industrial automation, and backup power.

Sealed lead-acid (SLA) batteries

Canbat manufactures durable and reliable SLA batteries for deep-cycle and standby applications. They are maintenance-free and leak-proof, and power electric wheelchairs, mobility scooters, recreational vehicles, and other equipment. Their lifespan ranges from 3 to 5 years, with a capacity of 300 to 1200 charge cycles, depending on the battery type, temperature, and charging method. The two main technologies are AGM and Gel, each with specific advantages. SLA batteries self-discharge at a rate of 3% per month, so they require periodic charging at least every six months. The catalog includes general-purpose models with AGM technology, designed to deliver reliability and consistency.

Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries

Canbat's LiFePO4 batteries offer excellent lifespan and enhanced safety performance. According to the company, they have a cycle life ten times higher than lead-acid batteries and are 60% lighter. Canbat presents itself as Canada's number one lithium battery company. The offering includes 12V, 24V, 36V, and 48V models, plus a cold-weather lithium battery.

Lead-carbon batteries

Canbat's lead-carbon batteries are designed with PSOC compatibility for ultra-fast charging capability, efficiency, and more than three times the cycles of standard AGM batteries. They are offered as an upgrade over lead-acid and as a more cost-effective option than lithium. They are available in two main formats: front terminal and top terminal.

Chargers and power converters

Canbat manufactures LiFePO4 lithium battery chargers for 12V, 24V, 36V, and 48V systems, as well as IP67 waterproof chargers in those same voltages. It also sells Victron chargers in IP22, IP43, and IP65 versions. Canbat's power converters provide reliable AC/DC power conversion for various professional and recreational applications; they are often used in recreational vehicles to power 12V DC systems and charge batteries. They are compatible with LiFePO4, sealed lead-acid, and lead-carbon batteries. They incorporate a built-in voltage regulator that allows you to set the exact charge voltages for each battery bank. They are made of lightweight aluminum, with a precision fan that operates quietly and activates only when necessary. They include built-in protection against low AC voltage, current surges, and thermal overload. The converters come with a 5-year warranty, which the company describes as the longest in the industry, and each unit is ETL-certified, conforming to UL and CSA standards. Canbat offers a wide selection of 12V converters.

Inverters, solar panels, and accessories

The catalog is completed with hybrid inverters, 12V Multiplus inverters, 48V Quattro inverters, solar panels, isolated and non-isolated 24V DC-to-DC chargers, and SmartShunt battery monitors. It also offers wiring and connection accessories: busbars, Lynx distributors, battery mounts and brackets, MC4 connectors, Mega and ANL fuses, fuse holders, MC4 inline fuses, battery and inverter cables, and solar cables.

Applications and markets

Canbat's products are aimed at applications such as recreational vehicles, solar power, marine, trolling motors, fish finders, ham radio, street lights, telecommunications, golf carts, wheelchairs, lawn mowers, and technology. The company exports its sealed lead-acid and lithium batteries to North America, South America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Canbat claims to be the only Canadian battery company offering such a diverse line of proprietary products.

Manufacturing and standards

Canbat designs and manufactures lithium iron and sealed lead-acid batteries in accordance with Canadian quality standards. The company uses state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment to achieve consistent quality and fast production times. Its engineers can develop custom battery packs for specific energy storage needs. The company states that its batteries achieve the best cycle life thanks to its proprietary technology, which, according to its presentation, surpasses any other sealed lead-acid or lithium battery on the market. Canbat also offers technical resources such as user manuals, lithium charging guides, Bluetooth guide, battery storage information, warranty, FAQs, blog, battery connection diagrams, terminal options, catalogs, material safety data sheets (MSDS), technical glossary, and recycling process.
