Warranty 

Dragonfly Energy Corp. (“the Manufacturer”) warrants each Dragonfly Energy and Battle Born Batteries branded Li-ion battery (“the 

Product”) sold by Dragonfly Energy, Battle Born Batteries, or any of its authorized distributors or dealers, to be free of defects for a 

period of 10 years (“the Warranty Period”) from the date of sale as determined by either the customer’s sale receipt, the shipping 

invoice, and the battery serial number, with proof of purchase. Within the first 8 years of the Warranty Period, subject to the 

exclusions listed below, the Manufacturer will credit, replace, or repair, if serviceable, the Product and/or parts of the Product if 

the components in question are determined to be defective in material or workmanship. After 8 years and up to 10 years, if the 

components in question are determined to be defective in material or workmanship, and the Manufacturer deems the components 

to be repairable, the Product will be repaired and returned. If the Manufacturer deems the components to be not repairable, a new, 

similar Product will be offered at a discount of 30% off the price listed at the time of the offer. The offer will be valid for a period of 

30 days after the date of notification. See 

https://battlebornbatteries.com/terms-conditions/#warranty 

for the full warranty policy. 

NON-TRANSFERABLE

 

This Limited Warranty is to the original purchaser of the Product and is not transferable to any other person or entity. Please contact 

the place of purchase regarding any warranty claim.

How to Incorporate Fuses into System Install

 

ANL fuses are designed to melt and separate into two pieces for the purpose of breaking a circuit in the 

event of excessive current. These fuses are essential components for protecting against a catastrophic 

event and are typically placed between Battle Born Batteries and the inverter/load. 

How to Properly Store Batteries

 

We recommend bringing the Battle Born 

b

atteries to a 100% state of charge. Then, disconnect the 

battery from any loads by removing the negative cable from one battery. On average, the batteries lose 

approximately 2-3% capacity per month. This is subject to increasing if stored in extreme environmental 

conditions. 

How to Maintain the Batteries

 

Battle Born 

B

atteries require very little maintenance. If your batteries are in series and not being 

charged by a multi-bank charger it is recommended that you fully charge the batteries individually once 

a month

 if the system is used frequently. This will internally balance your batteries to ensure that they 

will reach their expected life span and allow you to get the full power out of them with each use. If your 

batteries are in parallel this is not necessary, just make sure the batteries are charged to 14.2V – 14.6V 

frequently for internal balance. Our BMS has a built-in passive balancing system that will take care of 

this for you.

the

 end of

lifetime it is important to recycle them responsibly. 

Here are a few suggestions:

1.

Make sure all loads are removed from your system before removing

 the

 batteries. Once the batteries are removed

cover the terminals using electrical tape. Now can be a good time to inspect any cable runs or lugs.

2. Visit
