Stromcore in the Field
The True Cost of Lead-Acid
Lead-acid batteries quietly drain your budget through maintenance, energy waste, and downtime. Here's how Stromcore changes the equation.
| Category | Lead-Acid (Traditional) | ⚡ Stromcore Lithium |
|---|---|---|
| Charge Time | 8–10 hours + cooling period | Under 1 hour, opportunity charging |
| Maintenance | Weekly watering, equalization, acid spills | $0 — zero maintenance required |
| Lifespan | 3–5 years | 10+ year warranty |
| Energy Efficiency | ~75% efficiency, degrades rapidly | ~98% efficiency, stable throughout life |
| Cold Storage Performance | Significant power loss below 5°C | Full power at -4°F (−20°C) |
| Safety | Acid spills, hydrogen gas, fire risk | Sealed, emission-free, UL Listed |
| Annual Cost per Forklift | $10,000+ (energy + maintenance + replacement) | Save $8,000/year average |
Total Cost of Ownership
Compare the complete 5-category cost of ownership: asset payments, energy, maintenance, operating losses, and real estate — the same model Stromcore sales engineers use.
* Based on 300 operating days/yr, 3,000 hrs/yr, $0.07/kWh electricity, $3/gal propane, $4/gal diesel, $25/hr labour. Asset costs amortized over equipment life. Results may vary by application.
What Our Clients Say
"Switching to Stromcore was one of the best operational decisions we've made. Our cold storage environment was destroying lead-acid batteries — we were replacing them every two years. With Stromcore, the batteries outperform in the cold, the team no longer maintains them, and we're saving well over $100,000 a year across our fleet."
