12V RV Battery

Four capacities on one 12.8V case family — 230Ah to 640Ah — all rated at 8,000 cycles and all documented to the last connection rule.

The 12V RV line is four builds of one idea: maximum honest energy in a case a motorhome locker can swallow. The shared case width is 360mm. Inside it: the 230Ah at 2.94kWh and 23.8kg (360 × 254 × 162mm), the 320Ah at 4.09kWh and 31.9kg (360 × 310 × 160mm), the 540Ah at 6.91kWh and 47.7kg (360 × 350 × 190mm), and the 640Ah at 8.19kWh and 59.6kg (360 × 430 × 235mm).

Electrical data is uniform where it should be: 14.6V charge, 10.4V cut-off, RS485/CAN communication, 8,000 cycles at 80% DOD, discharge from −25°C to 65°C, and up to four units in series or parallel (with the published note that communication-mode series strings stop at two). Where the models differ is muscle: maximum charge/discharge is 250A with a 300A 30-second peak on the 230Ah and 320Ah, rising to 300A with a 600A 2–3 second peak on the 540Ah and 640Ah — the headroom that inverters, levelling systems and simultaneous loads actually use.

One datasheet oddity deserves a straight note: the manufacturer's published page for the 230Ah build carries the family model code IMP-RV12-320 in its header while its own specification table lists 230Ah capacity. The figures on this page follow the specification tables — capacity, energy, dimensions and weight per model — which is how the factory quote will specify your build as well: by the table, in writing.

Why It Earns Its Place

Features

One case family, four energies

Locker fit is checked once at 360mm width; capacity becomes a depth-and-weight choice, not a re-engineering.

600A peaks on the big builds

Inverter surges and levelling jacks draw what they draw — the 540/640Ah models publish the peak figures to cover them.

8,000-cycle uniformity

Every capacity carries the same cycle rating; choosing smaller never means choosing shorter-lived.

Cold-climate discharge

−25°C discharge across the line for winter touring, with storage at 0–35°C.

Picking the capacity

Nightly consumption decides. A touring couple with LED lighting, a compressor fridge, heating fan and device charging typically lands on the 320Ah; full-timers, winter users and anyone running an inverter-fed microwave or coffee machine land on 540Ah or 640Ah, or parallel a second unit within the published limits. The RV range page shows the load arithmetic; the quote confirms the bank against your own list.

Ordering & OEM

How ordering works

Minimum order quantities and lead times depend on the product type and the degree of customisation: standard products can start from smaller batches, while custom housings, labelling and packaging are assessed per project. Samples can be arranged, with sample and freight costs confirmed against the requirement. Every enquiry is answered with a written specification and quote stating the model, configuration and terms - nothing about an order here is left to chat messages.

Improve Battery runs OEM/ODM alongside its standard range, and ships with the export documentation each model carries (CE, RoHS, FCC, MSDS, UN38.3 types as listed per datasheet; certificates available upon request). State the model, voltage, quantity and destination in the enquiry form and the sales team in Shenzhen will reply with the full specification.

Questions

Frequently asked

Can I start with one 320Ah and add another later?

Yes — up to four in parallel. Matched units are recommended; the quote can plan the second unit from the first order.

Why does the 230Ah page show a 320 model code?

A header inconsistency on the manufacturer's own page; the specification table for that build lists 230Ah, and orders are specified by the table. We flag it rather than repeat it silently.

What charger profile do I need?

14.6V LiFePO4 profile. The charging guide on this site lists the settings for mains, solar and DC-DC charging.
