4.28 kWh, Victron CAN-bus and internal heating in one steel-cased 12V battery. The Epoch 12V 334Ah MC Essential Series stores 4.28kWh in a powder-coated steel case built for dry, protected indoor installs. It talks to a Victron Cerbo GX or Ekrano GX over CAN-bus, reports to your phone over Bluetooth, and warms itself before charging in the cold. It's built for off-grid solar, home backup, cabin and RV owners running a Victron-based system who want a lot of 12V energy from one battery.
🔧 Will It Fit & Work for You?
A large-format steel case, not a BCI group size. Popular uses include:
- Off-grid solar & inverter systems
- Victron GX-based systems
- Home backup & cabins
- RV & van builds (inside, dry compartments)
- Tiny homes & workshops
- Large 12V parallel banks
- Your space fits 15.35" L × 8.07" W × 11.02" H (390 × 205 × 280 mm), plus room for terminal hardware and cables, and can hold 75 lb.
- It's installed indoors, upright and out of the weather. The case is IP21: drip resistant only, not dust-tight or waterproof.
- Your inverter's DC input stays within 300A continuous (about 3,840W), with 150A recommended for daily use.
- Your system is 12V. This model is not approved for series wiring (24V/48V). Expand in parallel instead.
- Your charger has a LiFePO4 profile. It's a deep-cycle battery, not for starting engines.
Why Choose the 334Ah MC
Victron CAN-Bus Built In
Connects to a Cerbo GX or Ekrano GX over CAN-bus with DVCC support, so your Victron system can follow the battery's charge limits.
High-Output Power
300A continuous (about 3,840W at 12.8V) and 600A peaks for up to 10 seconds, with 150A recommended for daily use.
Winter-Ready Charging
An internal heating film runs only when a charger is connected and the cells are below 0°C. Charging resumes above 5°C (41°F).
Bluetooth Monitoring
The free Epoch Li-Ion app shows state of charge, cell voltages, temperatures, heater status and BMS history.
2A Active Balancing
Active cell balancing works across the full state-of-charge range to keep the four cells matched over time.
Smart BMS Protection
Overcharge, over-discharge, over-current, short circuit and high/low temperature protection. Rated for 4,500+ cycles.
⏱️ How Long Will It Run?
| Constant load | Estimated runtime |
|---|---|
| 100W | About 34.2 hours |
| 500W | About 6.8 hours |
| 1,000W | About 3.4 hours |
| 3,000W | About 1.1 hours |
Epoch estimates based on 3,420Wh usable (80% of stored energy). Real runtime varies with load, inverter efficiency, temperature and battery condition.

Lithium vs. a Lead-Acid Bank
| Epoch 12V 334Ah MC | Typical Lead-Acid | |
|---|---|---|
| Batteries for ~4.3 kWh | 1 | Several |
| Weight | 75 lb | Many times heavier |
| Usable capacity | Most of the rated 334Ah | About half, to protect battery life |
| Cold-weather charging | Built-in heater | Slow & inefficient |
| Talks to your Victron GX | Yes, over CAN-bus | No |
| Warranty | 11-year limited | Usually 1–2 years |
🔌 Charging Made Simple
Recommended: Up to 167A
Charge at up to 167A (0.5C) per battery for best results, with 300A max.
No Lead-Acid Modes
Use a charger with a LiFePO4 profile. Turn off equalization, desulfation and "repair" modes, and set temperature compensation to 0.
Cold-Weather Charging
Below 0°C (32°F), the connected charger powers the heater. Charging resumes above 5°C (41°F), which can take up to 60 minutes in deep cold.
Victron Setup
On your GX device, select the CAN-bus BMS profile (500 kbit/s) and enable DVCC. Link batteries in a bank with straight-through RJ45 patch cables.
