Shipping & Returns

Shipping & Returns

Order Confirmation:

As soon as you place your order, you will receive a confirmation email. After that, we double-check if all items ordered are in stock and available for immediate shipment. If your order is available for the delivery within the advertised time frame, we will submit it for shipment to the warehouse. If the expected delivery time exceeds the advertised time frame, we'll reach out to you via email and/or phone to confirm the order.

Order Shipment:

Within 1-2 business day from the time the item has been shipped, you will receive an email confirmation with tracking number. If you would not receive tracking information within 6 business days of your order, feel free to follow up with us at support@epowerguys.com.

For LTL shipments, Free Shipping is Standard Curbside Delivery.

Curbside delivery is defined as delivery of the freight as close to the actual delivery address as possible. Please remember the size of the tractor trailer and certain safety precautions may prevent the freight carrier from delivering the freight at the actual curb or delivery address.

For addresses located on a cul-de-sac or dead-end street, curbside delivery is not guaranteed. In this case, the customer may need to meet the driver at the nearest intersection that the delivery truck can access.

In special cases, when the customer's address is in a high cost delivery area (e.g. remote suburbs or the center of a large city) an additional delivery fee may be required. This mainly applies to ZIP codes 10000-15000, and may also apply to some addresses in the New England Area (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont), Washington and Oregon.

Note - items heavier than 1,400 lbs may require delivery to a delivery dock or fork truck to unload them. Additional charges might apply.

To confirm the availability of Fee Shipping - Standard Curbside Delivery Option, please contact the ePowerGuys Team before placing your order.

Estimated Time of Arrival:

Our standard shipping out time for orders from our warehouse to the customer is 4-12 business days and most orders are shipped within 3-6 business days of placing the order. Custom-made products are usually shipped within 8-12 weeks. If the expected shipping date for your order would fall outside of the advertised 4-12 business day time frame, our customer service team will reach out to you to confirm if you are OK with that date.

Areas Covered:

All estimated delivery dates and shipping costs advertised on the website apply the Contiguous United States only. Please contact our customer service team to discuss the time and cost of shipping to Hawaii or Alaska. We don't ship directly to Canada, but we can ship your order to the freight carrier of your choice.

    Damages:

    It is very important that you inspect the packaging of your items and the items themselves when they arrive and check if you received all boxes listed on the delivery receipt.

    If you notice any damage or shortage of packages, you must make note of it on the bill of lading, take pictures, and REFUSE DELIVERY. Your note should say "refused due to damage". You must also take photos of all sides of the box and send them to us within 24 hours. If there are no damages visible before opening the box, you must note "subject to further inspection, may contain concealed damage".

    If a shipment with a damaged item is accepted by the recipient (even if the bill of lading would include information about the damage), we will not be able to offer you a replacement item or a refund for your order.

    After receiving the shipment and before unpacking the item, be sure to take photos of the packaging from all sides, even if there are no visible signs of damage - this is very important if after unpacking it turns out that the item has concealed damage and we would have to file a complaint with the carrier / manufacturer of the item.

    If you notice any damage after receiving the delivery, do not throw the box away, and contact us with the photos. After we receive information from you about the refused delivery or concealed damage, we immediately initiate a claim with the shipping company or with the manufacturer. After the claim is fully processed, we ship all replacements at absolutely no cost to you.

    Cancellations & Refunds:

    We can cancel your non-custom-made or non-made-to-order order at absolutely no cost to you before the shipping label or Bill of Lading has been created.

    Custom-made or made-to-order products are not eligible for refunds after the order and its conditions have been confirmed by the customer.

    Orders delivered outside the United States are not eligible for refunds.

    If your order arrived damaged, "Damages" section applies.

    To be eligible for a return, the item must be unused and in the same condition as you received it. It must also remain in the original packaging, and the packaging must be in a perfect condition. We do not charge restocking fees or return shipping fees. All eligible returns are 100% free. 

    Our refund policy lasts 45 days. If 45 days have gone by since you received your item, unfortunately, we can’t offer you a refund.

    Before approving the return procedure for your item, we must receive photos of the unpacked product (on each side) and the product packed in the original packaging (on each side) - based on the photos received, we can assess whether the item is subject to the return procedure.

    If you want to return the ordered product, it has to be arranged in the same manner it arrived to you. For products delivered via LTL freight, it must be packed in its original packaging on a pallet and made available for pickup by our carrier within 45 days from the date the product was delivered to you, at the exact same location to which it was delivered.

    For products not shipped as LTL freight (e.g. via FedEx Ground / UPS / USPS), the product you wish to return must be packed in the original packaging and made available to the courier for pickup or dropped off at the local branch of the shipping company within 45 days of where the product was delivered to you.

    Please contact us at support@epowerguys.com before returning an item to discuss shipping details.

    Refunds

    We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method within 10 business days. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too.

    If more than 15 business days have passed since we’ve approved your return, please contact us at support@epowerguys.com.

          Features

          HALF THE WEIGHT. TWICE THE POWER.

          All Dakota Lithium batteries are engineered with Lithium Iron Phosphate technology (LiFePO4) providing long lasting performance in the harshest environments. Allowing you to go further, last longer, and play harder.


          11 YEAR WARRANTY

          Dakota Lithium offers a best in class 11 year pro-rated warranty on all of our batteries.


          BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (BMS) - Ensures safety and long battery lifespan

          All Dakota Lithium batteries include an active BMS protection circuit that handles cell balancing, low voltage cutoff, high voltage cutoff, short circuit protection and temperature protection for increased performance and longer life. Safety measures provided by the BMS prevent overheating. All Dakota Lithium batteries have a BMS that can support linking batteries in series or parallel.


          LITHIUM IRON PHOSPHATE - LiFePO4

          Different Li-ion batteries use different chemistries. Dakota Lithium exclusively engineers our batteries using lithium iron phosphate or LiFePO4 for short. Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries are the safest lithium battery chemistry. Unlike the cell phone battery in your pocket, or the laptop battery on your desk, the structural stability of LiFePO4 results in significantly less heat generation compared to other lithium chemistries.


          NO THERMAL RUNAWAY - Dakota Lithium cells do not produce oxygen

          The main cause of fire or explosion of a lithium ion battery is due to the cells being compromised or ruptured, which causes thermal runaway. Without proper management, thermal runaway may result in fire. Dakota Lithium LiFePO4 is extremely stable and does not produce the oxygen needed to aid thermal runaway and unlike other lithium battery chemistries will not result in a catastrophic meltdown.


          100% COBALT FREE - No rare earth elements

          NCM and other lithium ion chemistries that contain rare earth elements such as Colton or Cobalt produce oxygen and toxic fumes when ruptured, leading to fire. Dakota Lithium does not contain rare earth elements, and does not produce oxygen or is prone to fire.


          CERTIFICATIONS - Tested and certified for safety and reliability

          Dakota Lithium batteries meet U.N. 38.3 standards and built from grade A cells. Dakota Lithium's cells are UL1642 certified and have been tested per IEC62133 standards. UN Manual of Tests and Criteria certified, and meets all US & International regulations for air, ground, marine, and train transport. Dakota Lithium is ISO Certified per 9001:2015 standards, and select models are produced in ISO 14001 certified facilities.

          IEC62133 certifications and additional laboratory services are available as required by our OEM clients.


          INSTALLATION & CARE - Treat your batteries right

          When proper installation and battery care is followed, your LiFePO4 battery will be safe and reliable for many years. This includes making sure all connections are tight and proper wiring sizes are used, compatible chargers and charging components are used, and the batteries are used for purposes that they are designed for.

          FAQ

          Twice the Power?

          Yes! Here at Dakota Lithium we build all of our batteries with lithium iron phosphate technology which has many distinct advantages over traditional batteries. Including 60% less weight, a charging speed that is up to 5X faster, and a significantly longer lifespan (5-10 years longer on average). One of the most noticeable advantages however is the flat voltage curve. Unlike a lead acid battery where the voltage drops as you use the battery a Dakota Lithium battery has a steady voltage for 99% of the battery's charge. That means you get all the power down to the last drop and double the usable power of traditional batteries.

           

          Are Lithium Batteries Safe?

          Dakota Lithium batteries are 100% safe & reliable. Our signature chemistry, Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4), does not contain rare earth elements (like Cobalt) or heavy metals, is non-toxic, including no lead or acid, is non-corrosive, does not off gas, requires no watering or maintenance, can be placed in any orientation, and unlike other lithium batteries will not explode or catch fire. In addition, each Dakota Lithium battery is protected from over heating, over charging, and short circuiting, by a battery management system (BMS) microchip that also extends the lifespan and is contained in a rugged, waterproof case (although enough water can conduct electricity between the terminals, so don't submerse the battery). For best performance & reliability we recommend using a LiFePO4 charger.    


          How do I charge a lithium battery?

          Dakota Lithium batteries perform best when charged by a lithium compatible charger. Lead acid or SLA chargers, on-board chargers for AGM batteries, or other non-lithium chargers will charge a Dakota Lithium battery but only to 70-80% of capacity. This is because Dakota Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) technology charges and is full at a higher voltage then traditional batteries (Dakota Lithium charges at 14.4 Volts). Chargers with a lithium battery setting or designed for lithium will charge at the appropriate voltage.

           

          Will cold weather affect my battery?

          Your Dakota Lithium battery will discharge normally between a range of -20F and 120F (-29C to 49C). DL batteries are commonly used among ice fishers for their flashers and ice augers, so they are quite resilient and are frequently used in cold climates. In cases of extreme cold however, it is recommended that the batteries be insulated. We also do not recommend charging our batteries below freezing temperatures. If you are planning to regularly charge your battery below freezing temperatures we recommend the DL+ 12V 135Ah battery which has an internal heating element and is optimal for use in cars, trucks, RVs, off grid solar, and any application where the battery will be charged regularly in extremely cold environments (like a North Dakota winter).

           

          Can I use this to start my car/boat engine?

          Our DL+ line of batteries have 1000cca of engine starting power plus the same legendary deep cycle capabilities of all Dakota Lithium batteries. That means you can use them for starting a boat, car or truck engine. Our standard deep cycle batteries do not have this cold cranking ability and cannot be used for a starting battery.


          What Trolling Motor Battery Do You Recommend?

          Dakota Lithium is a proud sponsor of over 200+ professional athletes in the fishing industry. Here's batteries sizes recommended by our pros depending on the size of your trolling motor: Motor Thrust / Max Amp Draw (A) @ Voltage (V) / Recommended Battery

          • >112 lb / Up to 100A @ 36V / DL+ 60 x 3 or DL 100 x 3 or DL 200 x 3

           

          What battery do I need for my RV or Camper Van?

          The industry standard house battery size used in most RVs, Campers, and #VanLife builds is the DL 100Ah battery. This is a drop in replacement for AGM and most lead acid batteries. If you are charging off your engine's alternator we recommend a Victron DC-DC smart charger. If charging off solar panels we recommend a Victron Smart Solar charge controller, or if you have a solar charge controller choose the lithium setting.
