At the heart of any machine, such as an electric bike, is its battery, and this power hub decides how far you can travel on a single charge, how swiftly the bike will accelerate, how fast it charges, and how long it will last.
But with so many electric bike options flooding today's market, you might be confused about which type of batteries used in these vehicles are best suited for Indian roads and hot climates. Not all batteries are built to handle the heat and long rides that Indian riders expect.
In India, temperatures are high and roads are tricky to navigate, so batteries need to be reliable, safe, and also durable. That's why Oben Electric uses innovative Lithium Ferro Phosphate (LFP) batteries, with superior heat resistance, safety, and longevity.
In this blog article, we'll explore electric bike battery types and why Oben Electric uses Lithium Ferro Phosphate (LFP) battery Technology to power its bikes.
Major Electric Bike Battery Types
The table below outlines the several battery chemistries used in electric bikes today:
| Battery Type | Full Form | Key Features | Usage |
| LFP | Lithium Ferro Phosphate | High safety, long lifespan, thermally stable |
Used in Oben Electric bikes & other high-performance electric bikes |
| NMC | Nickel Manganese Cobalt |
High energy density, moderate lifespan |
Used in high-performance electric bikes |
| Li-ion | Lithium-ion | Balanced performance and moderate cost but lower heat resistance |
Mid-range electric bikes |
| Lead-Acid | - | Low cost, heavy, shorter lifespan | Budget e-bikes, entry-level scooters |
The Oben Electric Edge: Why LFP Batteries Win
Oben's LFP batteries add several distinct benefits to the Oben Electric motorcycles, like:
1. Double Battery Life: Whereas typical Li-ion batteries last about 800-1,000 charge cycles, Oben's LFP batteries can endure up to 2,000 cycles.
2. 50% Higher Heat Resistance: Further enhanced with Oben's patented Maximum Heat Exchange (MHX) technology, these batteries stay cool and safe even in India's hot climate.
3. Enhanced Safety: LFP's chemically stable and non-flammable nature reduces fire risk, giving riders greater peace of mind.
4. Consistent Performance: The battery delivers reliable power output over many charge cycles.
5. Eco-Friendly: LFP batteries contain no cobalt and reduce environmental impact, promoting sustainability.
