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.

          BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (BMS)

          Our Safari UT battery series comes with our own proprietary BMS that will protect your battery from harm. It's like having a person body guard for your battery.

          The Safari UT series all have an internal Battery Management System (BMS) that acts as a safety net to shut down the battery if it out of parameters. This prevents the battery from overcharging or discharging as well as operating outside of the temperature range.


















           

          HOW THE SAFARI UT 1300 BT-Heater STACKS UP TO OTHERS

          • The Safari UT 1300 BT-H is the lightest Lithium Iron Phosphate battery in its class by more than a bunch. This make a HUGE difference when you're looking at overall weight capacity for your RV, Trailer, or outdoor rig.
          • Because we use prismatic cells vs cylindrical cells, we can pack more power in a smaller unit.
          • The Safari UT 1300 BT-H has a limited lifetime warranty. It may be the last battery you'll ever buy. Everyone else offers only a 3 to 11 years warranty and are often prorated.
          • When you look at the price per watt basis and the extended life and usage capacity, the Safari UT 1300 BT-H give you outstanding performance.

          WHY WE USE LITHIUM IRON PHOSPHATE

          Lithium Iron Phosphate, or LiFePO4, batteries are one of the most durable and reliable energy sources on the market and a drastic improvement over lead-acid in safety, weight, capacity and shelf life.

           

          BENEFITS:

          • Safety: Lithium Iron Phosphate is the safest lithium on the market. It will not explode or catch on fire. It is absent of potentially volatile chemicals that are found in other lithium cells.
          • Long Lifespan: Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries have up to 6,000+ life cycles without significantly decreasing performance. That means they last for years and years. By comparison, the average lifetime of lead-acid batteries is just two years.
          • High Efficiency: Lithium Iron Phosphate has 100% of its capacity available for use. It can be quickly charged, discharged, and recharged again reducing downtime, which increases efficiency. This makes it a great fit for a variety of applications like RVs, trailers, boats, outbuilding, homes and more.
          • No Active Maintenance: The Safari UT 1300 does not require active maintenance to extend its service life. The batteries show no memory effects and can be stored for long periods of time because of the extremely low self-discharge rate (<3% per month). There's no acid or water, no mess and no trickle charging.
          • Flexible Use: Because Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries emit no fumes or require little air flow, you can use them inside or outside. They can be stacked on top of each other or can be used in any position and in a variety of ways or applications.
          • Peaks and Valleys Energy Use: Using Lithium Iron Phosphate for energy storage, you can optimize usage and help solve the peaks and valleys that occurs during high and low energy demand usage. This also can help to stabilize the grid from intense demand cycles by allowing you to use the stored energy when need it.
          • Renewable Power: For the first time, green energy can not only be created it can also be effectively stored in safe, silent, Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries and used as needed. You can harness the power of the sun and use it over and over again.
          • Lightweight and Portable: Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries are relatively small and light weight. Compared to lead-acid batteries, lithium provides great energy density at about half the mass and weight so you can use them in RVs, trailers, motorhomes, boats, outbuildings, or in your home.
          • Energy Independence: Energy storage allows you to be independent of the grid so you can have energy where and when you want it. So, you don't have to worry about black outs, brown outs, or when the grid goes down.

           

           WINTER USAGE TIPS

          • The Safari UT lithium battery series performs better than lead acid batteries in most weather conditions. It can charge between temps of 32° and 113°F and can discharge between -4° and 131°F at 100% rate.
          • All types of batteries need to be above freezing in order to charge them. As a result, it is best to use the batteries in a climate controlled location (not on the tongue of a trailer or using a lead acid battery compartment that has to be ventilated, thus allowing freezing air to circulate around the battery).
          • The Safari UT and other lithium batteries can be placed in an insulated space, inside the RV or other climate controlled areas. Some users have suggested using a Battery Heating Pad that you can find online. We recommend using the battery in a climate controlled location.
          • If you want to use some type of heating element to keep the battery above freezing, you may want to do an online search or check out sites like OffGridPowerPack.com

          FAQ

          What's the rated capacity?
          The Safari UT 1300 is commonly referred to as a 12V, 105Ah (how much energy is stored in it), 1344Wh. Technically, it is called Nominal Voltage at 12.8V and 105Ah. It can output 900A peak, then approximately 250A for one minute and 150A continuously.

           

          Can it store solar power?
          The Safari UT 1300 is a great energy storage unit for solar power from panels on homes, cabins, businesses, and RV's. It can harness the power of the sun. You'll need a charge controller between the solar panel and the Safari UT 1300 to regulate the energy flow from the panel(s) to the UT.

           

          How long can the UT 1300 hold a charge?
          It will maintain its charge for up to 2 years without having to charge it. This is known as shelf life or storage life. However, we recommend using it more frequently, in the house, outside, on adventures, and for emergencies.

           

          Can I use my standard charger?
          Yes! You could use a standard battery charger to charge the Safari UT 1300 and it will charge the battery. However, since most chargers are designed for a lead acid battery, they charge up to a certain voltage. A lead acid battery "full" is about 13.8V. The Safari UT 1300 can accept a charge up to 14.6V. Most charger will get the batteries to 13.8V. That will put the Safari UT 1300 at about 80-85% full. For best performance, we recommend a lithium charger.
