Heated Bluetooth RV lithium power
A massive 5.89kWh single-battery powerhouse for RVs, camper vans, skoolies, and off-grid 12V systems.
The Epoch Essentials 460Ah is a 12V 460Ah RV lithium battery built for boondocking freedom, camper van battery upgrade projects, and high-capacity 12V power banks. This 12V 460Ah LiFePO4 battery stores 5.89kWh of energy in one Group 8D lithium replacement footprint, giving RVers, van builders, and off-grid travelers a powerful heated RV lithium battery with Bluetooth monitoring, 200A continuous discharge, internal self-heating, IP54 weather resistance, and an 11-year warranty.
Replace a messy multi-battery lead-acid bank with one space-saving battery bank.
Van builders and RVers fight for every inch of storage and every pound of payload. The Epoch Essentials 12V 460Ah lithium battery consolidates high-capacity energy storage into one 84 lb package, helping eliminate unnecessary parallel wiring, reduce connection points, and free up valuable space in benches, under-bed electrical compartments, and RV battery bays.
With nominal energy roughly comparable to five standard 12V 100Ah lead-acid batteries—and far more usable capacity in real-world RV use—this high-capacity RV battery is ideal for simplifying a boondocking power setup without sacrificing runtime.
Standard lithium batteries can be damaged when charged below freezing. This cold-weather heated battery uses internal heating technology to support charging down to -4°F / -20°C when incoming solar, shore power, or DC-to-DC charge current is available. The BMS warms the cells first, then allows charging once the battery reaches a safe temperature.
IP54 weather resistance helps protect the battery from dust and water splashes in standard RV battery boxes, storage bays, and high-vibration mobile environments. It is ideal for protected compartments, but it should not be submerged or installed where standing water can collect.
The 200A continuous Smart BMS allows this single battery to output roughly 2,560 watts at 12.8V before inverter losses. That makes it a strong match for properly designed 2,000W to 2,500W inverter systems powering microwaves, espresso machines, hair dryers, induction cooktops, and other common off-grid RV loads. The 400A peak discharge rating for 10 seconds helps handle short startup surges.
The built-in Bluetooth RV battery monitor connects to the Epoch app on iOS or Android so you can check state of charge, battery voltage, current draw, and temperature from the comfort of your camper bed—without installing a separate external shunt.
Build a bigger battery bank when your energy needs grow.
For extreme energy demands, up to 4 of these batteries can be wired in parallel for a massive 1,840Ah 12V battery bank, or up to 4 can be wired in series to create higher-voltage systems up to 48V. Use matched batteries and follow Epoch installation guidance for all series or parallel configurations.
The 4,000+ cycle life and 11-year manufacturer warranty make this battery a long-term investment for RVers, van builders, solar installers, and off-grid users who want reliable high-capacity lithium storage.

Dust protected, splash resistant, and built for protected mobile power compartments.
The IP54-rated enclosure is suitable for protected RV battery boxes, storage bays, under-bed installs, interior van electrical cabinets, and other mobile environments where splash resistance and dust protection matter. It should not be submerged or mounted where standing water can collect around the battery.
More usable energy. Less wiring complexity. Longer service life.
LiFePO4 technology gives RVers and van builders stable voltage output, high usable capacity, fast charging, and maintenance-free operation. Compared with traditional lead-acid banks, this Epoch lithium battery offers cleaner wiring, less weight, and far more practical energy storage for extended boondocking and off-grid van conversion travel.
Verify your compartment, inverter, charger, and wiring before installation.
Always confirm battery tray size, cable clearance, M8 terminal compatibility, fuse sizing, BMS current limits, inverter demand, charger profile, ventilation, and system grounding before installation. Use LiFePO4-compatible charging equipment programmed to Epoch’s recommended settings. For series or parallel battery banks, use matched batteries of the same model, age, capacity, and state of charge.
Answers for RV, camper, van conversion, solar, and boondocking power systems.
Absolutely. Replacing several smaller batteries with one Epoch Essentials 12V 460Ah battery can simplify wiring, reduce parallel connection points, free up storage space, and remove significant weight from an RV or van build. This single 84 lb battery stores approximately 5.89kWh of energy, making it a strong alternative to a large lead-acid bank.
Both the Essentials and Elite 460Ah models offer large 5.89kWh-class capacity, Bluetooth monitoring, internal heating, and long warranty coverage. The Elite model is designed for more advanced installations with features such as IP67 waterproofing, higher continuous output, and Victron CANbus communication. The Essentials model is the cost-effective choice for RV, camper, and van builders who want a smart heated powerhouse without needing advanced Victron data integration.
The Epoch 12V 460Ah Essentials battery has a 200A continuous discharge BMS. At 12.8V, that equals roughly 2,560W of continuous DC output before inverter losses. It is a strong match for properly sized 2,000W to 2,500W inverter systems and can power many common RV loads such as microwaves, coffee makers, induction cooktops, and hair dryers when the full system is designed correctly.
The internal heating system is designed to support cold-weather charging by using incoming charge current when conditions are below the safe lithium charging temperature. It is not a space heater and is not intended to warm the battery while you are simply discharging it. When solar, shore power, or DC-to-DC charging is available, the BMS can use incoming energy to warm the cells before normal charging begins.
This battery includes built-in Bluetooth monitoring, so you can connect with the Epoch app on a compatible iOS or Android device. The app lets you check key battery information such as state of charge, voltage, current, and temperature without installing a separate external shunt.
The Epoch 12V 460Ah Essentials battery measures 20.55 in L × 9.45 in W × 8.60 in H and weighs 84 lb. It is closer to a Group 8D footprint than smaller Group 24 or Group 27 batteries, so you should measure your battery tray, storage bay, under-bed compartment, or bench installation space before ordering.
Yes. This model supports up to 4 batteries in parallel for a maximum bank capacity of 1,840Ah at 12V, and up to 4 batteries in series for higher-voltage systems up to 48V. Use matched batteries of the same model, age, capacity, and state of charge, and follow Epoch’s installation guidance.
This Essentials model is rated IP54, which means it is dust-protected and splash-resistant for protected RV battery bays, storage compartments, and mobile environments. It is not designed for submersion. If you need full IP67 waterproofing, compare the Elite 460Ah model.
Use lithium-compatible charging equipment programmed for LiFePO4 batteries. Recommended settings include 14.2V – 14.4V bulk/absorption voltage, float disabled preferred or 13.3V – 13.6V, 13.2V re-bulk, equalization disabled, temperature compensation disabled, and a 200A maximum continuous charge current.
Experience worry-free adventures with our robust IP54 protection. Your battery is effectively shielded against dust and water splashes, giving you the confidence to use it in light rain or dusty conditions. While not fully waterproof, IP54 provides reliable protection for most everyday outdoor scenarios.
