Summary

Plain 24 volt bank, no monitoring

The LiTime 24V 100Ah (L24V100-100-BASIC-8-A160) is a 25.6 V, 100 Ah LiFePO4 battery for RV, marine, trolling-motor and solar banks, sized to replace two 12 V batteries wired in series.

Verdict

It suits a buyer building a 24 V bank or replacing a pair of 12 V lead-acid batteries who charges above freezing, and who will not need phone monitoring or a closed-loop link to an inverter.

RedditBrand-level5.0 out of 10

Reddit owners split on LiTime and Ampere Time 12 V batteries. In an r/vandwellers thread an owner calls his Ampere Time 100Ah fantastic (July 2024), and replies in an r/SolarDIY thread on 24 V banks say LiTime batteries have been torn down many times and the build quality is excellent (March 2026). Against that, an r/boating owner's 100Ah lost its BMS after 10 cycles and LiTime, having agreed it was defective, stopped answering about the return (October 2025), and an r/OffGrid owner of 16 Ampere Time batteries reports BMS failures at 1.5 years and a support team that blamed his charging and wiring (January 2024).

Case over an inch narrower front to back than the Ampere Time equivalent, per one owner

On DIY Solar Forum a member building a 24 V 200 Ah bank ordered two LiTime 24V 100Ah batteries on eBay from the amperetime_us seller during a $100-off sale, choosing two 24 V batteries in parallel as easier to keep balanced than 12 V batteries in series (November 2022), and later noted that his LiTime 24V 100Ah case is over an inch narrower front to back than the Ampere Time equivalent. No owner report of measured capacity, failure or long-term use of this model was found on DIY Solar Forum, iRV2 or the fishing forums searched.

The Solar Pit, which links the battery through a LiTime affiliate link and is therefore not independent, ran a capacity test that drew 104.05 Ah from the 100 Ah battery, confirmed the BMS overload protection cut out as designed, weighed it at 44.4 lb and said it was very happy with it (September 2023, about 17,000 views).
