Canbat 12V 200Ah Cold Weather Lithium Battery (LiFePO4)
Canbat CLI200-12LT – 12V 200Ah Heated Lithium Battery for Cold Weather
The Canbat CLI200-12LT is a 12V 200Ah cold weather lithium battery engineered for performance in freezing temperatures. This 200Ah heated LiFePO4 battery features an advanced internal heating system that allows charging at temperatures as low as -20°C (-4°F) — with no need for additional components or wiring. This fully integrated, smart heating solution draws just 120W from the charger, ensuring safe and efficient cold-temperature charging.
Designed for high-demand, year-round power applications, this 200Ah heated lithium battery is ideal for off-grid solar, RVs, marine, camping, and backup power systems. Whether you’re living off-grid in winter or traveling across cold climates, the CLI200-12LT delivers consistent and reliable performance.
❄️ Built-in Heating for Cold Temperature Charging
Most lithium batteries shut down below freezing, but the CLI200-12LT is built for the cold. The intelligent BMS (battery management system) protects the cells by disconnecting in sub-zero temperatures, while the internal heater activates automatically before charging. All it needs is power from your charger—no relays, thermostats, or external heaters required.
This makes the CLI200-12LT a true drop-in replacement for SLA or AGM batteries in cold-weather environments.

🔥 What Makes Canbat Heated Lithium Batteries Better?
Unlike many other heated lithium batteries on the market, Canbat's built-in heating system draws power directly from the charger—not from the battery itself.
This key design difference offers two major advantages:
-
No Self-Discharge or Cycle Waste
Competing batteries use their own stored energy to power the heating element, which drains the battery and unnecessarily uses up charge cycles. Canbat avoids this by pulling power from the external charger, preserving both energy and lifespan. -
Smart Heating Logic
The built-in heater is only activated during charging in sub-zero temperatures—when it's actually needed. Since lithium batteries can discharge safely below freezing, heating is unnecessary unless charging is occurring. This intelligent approach ensures no energy is wasted, and your battery is always operating efficiently.
⚙️ Summary: Canbat vs. Competition
| Feature | Canbat Heated LiFePO₄ | Other Heated Lithium Batteries |
|---|---|---|
| Heating Power Source | From charger | From battery (self-drains) |
| Cycle Life Impact | Preserved | Reduced due to heater draw |
| Heating Activation | Only while charging | Often on even during discharge |
| Efficiency | High | Lower due to self-heating loss |
| Charging Below Freezing | Safe with heater | Same, but at the cost of cycles |
This difference is one of the many reasons Canbat is the top choice in Canada for cold weather lithium batteries used in RV, marine, solar, and industrial applications.
