A 15A charger made for 48V LiFePO4 batteries. The Epoch 48V 15A Lithium Battery Charger plugs into a standard 120V household outlet, so you don't need a 240V circuit. It connects to your battery with heavy-duty ring terminals, uses a 48V LiFePO4 charge profile at up to 95% efficiency, and has a shock-resistant IP67 aluminum housing that doubles as a heatsink. It suits golf carts, RVs, boats, utility vehicles and off-grid storage.
🔧 Will It Work With Your Battery?
A 48V LiFePO4 charger with ring-terminal output. Epoch lists it for:
- 48V golf cart batteries
- 48V RV battery banks
- 48V marine systems
- Off-grid & solar storage
- Utility vehicles
- Fleet & shop charging
- Your battery is 48V LiFePO4. It is not for lead-acid, AGM, gel or SLA batteries, or for 12V, 24V or 36V batteries.
- You'll connect to the battery terminals with ring terminals. This charger doesn't come with a golf cart charge-port plug.
- Own an Epoch Big Box golf cart battery? Those use a special connector. Ask us about the Big Box version of this charger (EP-4815C).
- Your battery can accept a 15A charge. Check your battery's BMS limits and the maker's requirements.
- You have a standard 120V AC outlet or a properly rated extension cord.
Why Use a Lithium-Specific Charger
Correct 48V LiFePO4 Profile
Programmed for 48V lithium iron phosphate batteries, with auto shut-off when the battery is full.
15A Charging
About 7 hours for a fully depleted 48V 105Ah battery, plus a little taper time.
Plug-and-Play 120V
Ready to use out of the box on a standard household outlet. No 240V circuit needed.
IP67 & Shock-Resistant
Sealed against water and dust, protected against temporary immersion up to 1 m for 30 minutes, and built for off-road, RV and marine use.
Seven Protections
Overtemperature, ambient temperature, reverse polarity, overcharge, output overvoltage, output overcurrent and output short-circuit.
Aluminum Heatsink Housing
The aluminum alloy case doubles as a heatsink, rated from -40°C to 60°C (-40°F to 140°F).
⏱️ How Long Does a Charge Take?
| Battery | Approx. time from empty |
|---|---|
| 48V 65Ah LiFePO4 | About 4.3 hours |
| 48V 105Ah LiFePO4 | About 7 hours (Epoch's estimate) |
| 48V 150Ah LiFePO4 | About 10 hours |
| Other sizes | Battery Ah ÷ 15 = hours |
Estimates from a fully depleted battery using Epoch's Ah ÷ 15 method, plus a little taper time. A battery that isn't empty finishes sooner.

Lithium Charger vs. a Lead-Acid Charger
| Epoch 48V 15A LiFePO4 | Typical Lead-Acid | |
|---|---|---|
| Charge profile | Made for LiFePO4 | Made for lead-acid, AGM or gel |
| Equalization / desulfation modes | Not part of a LiFePO4 profile | Common, and not suitable for lithium |
| Battery chemistry | 48V LiFePO4 | Lead-acid types |
| Outlet needed | Standard 120V | Varies by model |
| Water resistance | IP67 | Varies by model |
| Warranty | 2 years from Epoch | Varies by brand |
🔌 Charging Made Simple
Ring Terminal Connection
Attach the ring terminals to your battery's terminals, positive to positive and negative to negative. Reverse polarity protection stops a normal charge from starting if they're backward.
Plug Into 120V AC
Use a standard household outlet or a properly rated extension cord. Keep the AC plug and outlet dry.
Mount It On the Cart or Boat
The IP67 housing, shock resistance and ring leads let you mount it permanently. Follow Epoch's installation guidance.
Overnight Charging
It has overcharge protection and shuts off when full, so overnight charging is fine. Charge in a suitable location.
🛡️ 2-Year Limited Charger Warranty
Epoch-branded chargers are covered for 2 years from the original purchase date. You pay shipping to and from Epoch on charger claims. Full terms at epochbatteries.com.
