4 kWh of lithium power in a single Group 31 battery. The Epoch 12V 314Ah Eco Series packs 4.02kWh into a BCI Group 31 footprint, with a 250A continuous BMS that can run a properly designed 3,000W-class inverter system. It's Epoch's value line, with no Bluetooth or heater, built for RV, van, marine house, solar and backup users who want maximum capacity for the money.

🔧 Will It Fit & Work for You?

A BCI Group 31 footprint with rope handles. Popular uses include:

  • RV & motorhome house power
  • Camper vans & overlanding
  • Marine house power
  • Trolling motors (up to 250A)
  • Off-grid solar banks
  • 3,000W-class inverter systems
  • Cabins & backup power
📏 Quick check before you order:
  • Your space fits 13.75" L (15.5" at the handles) × 7.63" W × 10" H (10.5" with terminal bolts).
  • Your inverter's DC input stays within 250A continuous (about 3,200W), with up to 750A for 5-second surges.
  • Your charger has a LiFePO4 profile. Up to 157A charging is recommended.
  • No Bluetooth: add a shunt-based battery monitor (Epoch suggests a Victron SmartShunt) for an accurate charge reading.
  • It's a deep-cycle battery, not for starting engines.

Why Choose the 314Ah Eco

⚡

Massive Capacity

314Ah and 4.02kWh in one Group 31 battery. That's the energy of three 100Ah batteries without the extra wiring.

🔌

Runs Big Inverters

A 250A continuous BMS supports about 3,200W at 12.8V, enough for a properly designed 3,000W-class inverter system.

💲

Value-Line Pricing

Epoch's Eco Series keeps the LiFePO4 chemistry, smart BMS and long cycle life, and skips Bluetooth and heating to save you money.

🧠

Smart BMS Protection

Overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, short circuit and temperature protection, plus a charge cutoff below freezing.

🔁

Scales Up

Up to 4 in series for 24V–48V, or up to 16 in parallel for a very large bank, using matched batteries.

🧰

Zero Maintenance

No watering, no acid, no terminal cleaning. Rated for 4,500+ cycles.

⏱️ How Long Will It Run?

Constant load Estimated runtime
100W About 32.2 hours
500W About 6.4 hours
1,000W About 3.2 hours
1,280W (100A) About 2.5 hours
2,000W About 1.6 hours

Epoch estimates for a new, fully charged battery at 25°C (77°F), based on about 3,215Wh usable. Real runtime varies with load, inverter efficiency, temperature and battery condition.

Lithium vs. a Lead-Acid Bank

Epoch 12V 314Ah Eco Typical Lead-Acid
Batteries for ~4 kWh 1 Several
Weight 57 lb Many times heavier
Usable capacity Most of the rated 314Ah About half, to protect battery life
Voltage under inverter loads Stays steady Sags
Maintenance None Watering & cleaning
Warranty 6-year limited Usually 1–2 years

🔌 Charging Made Simple

🔋

Recommended: Up to 157A

Charge at up to 157A (0.5C), with 250A max from all sources combined.

🚫

No Lead-Acid Modes

Use a charger with a LiFePO4 profile. Turn off equalization, desulfation and "repair" modes, and set temperature compensation to 0.

❄️

Charge Above Freezing

No internal heater. The BMS blocks charging below 0°C (32°F). It can still discharge down to -20°C (-4°F).

🚐

Charging From an Alternator?

Epoch recommends a DC-to-DC charger programmed for LiFePO4 between your alternator and the battery.

🛡️ 6-Year Limited Warranty

Years 1–3Free replacement of a defective battery
Years 4–640% off MSRP on a replacement battery

❓ Common Questions

How is the Eco Series different from Epoch's Essential series?
Eco is the value line: no Bluetooth or internal heater, and a 6-year warranty (3 years free replacement, then 40% off MSRP through year 6).
What size inverter can it run?
The 250A continuous BMS supports about 3,200W at 12.8V before inverter losses. Size by your inverter's DC input current; 750A is only for surges up to 5 seconds.
Can I connect batteries in series or parallel?
Yes. Up to 4 in series and 16 in parallel, using matched batteries charged to the same level.
Can it be used in cold weather?
It can power loads down to -20°C (-4°F), but it has no heater, so charging is blocked below 0°C (32°F).
Does it have Bluetooth?
No. Epoch recommends a shunt-based monitor such as the Victron SmartShunt 500A for an accurate charge reading.
Is it waterproof?
No. It's IP54: dust protected and splash resistant, not submersible.
What charger settings should I use?
Bulk/absorption 14.2–14.4V, float off (or 13.3–13.6V), re-bulk 13.2V, with equalization and temperature compensation off. Up to 157A charging is recommended.
Can it start an engine?
No. It's a deep-cycle battery, not a cranking battery.
