More Power. More Safety. Same Compact Footprint.
The new ABYSS® 12V 120Ah Dual Purpose Lithium Marine Battery redefines what a Group 24 battery can do. Built for anglers, adventurers, and boat builders who demand the best, this next-generation LiFePO4 powerhouse delivers more amp hours, higher efficiency, and smarter safety features — all in the same compact Group 24 size.
With an incredible 1200A peak CCA, it fires up outboards, generators, and high-draw equipment with ease — while providing the deep-cycle endurance needed to run your fish finders, GPS, Seakeepers, chill plates, downriggers, and full audio systems all day long.
Built on years of marine engineering and field-tested reliability, the new 120Ah model now includes: an emergency power reserve push-start that delivers a last-line backup to get you home when voltage runs low. An integrated vent system improves heat dissipation and protects against internal short circuits, while true IP67 waterproof construction seals out saltwater, rain, and vibration. With higher amp-hour density than AGM batteries in the same Group 24 footprint, you get more usable power in less space—plus full parallel and series compatibility to scale your system effortlessly.
Whether you’re powering critical onboard electronics or starting a twin-engine offshore setup, the ABYSS® 12V 120Ah delivers the confidence, endurance, and performance that define the ABYSS® legacy.

UN/DOT 38.3: Lithium Battery Transportation
All Abyss Battery®, Inc. Lithium Batteries are required to pass section 38.3 of the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, to ensure the safety of using products for our end users and for shipping purposes. We are proud of our investment to ensure our products have been UN38.3 certified.
T1 – Altitude Simulation
This is low pressure testing that simulates unpressurized airplane space (cargo area) at 15,000 meter altitude. After storing batteries at 11.6kPa for >6 hours, these criteria shall be met: no mass loss, leaking, venting, disassembly, rupture or fire, and voltage within 10% of pre-test voltage.
T2 – Thermal Test
This test covers changes in temperature extremes from -40°C to +75°C. Batteries are stored for 6 hours at -40°C (12 hours for large cells/batteries), then 6 hours at +75°C (12 hours for large cells/batteries), for a total of 10 cycles. Testing may be performed in a single chamber or thermal shock chamber, but less than 30-minute transitions shall be used.
T3 – Vibration
This test simulates vibration during transportation. Test is a Sine Sweep: 7Hz – 200Hz – 7Hz in 15 Minutes; 12 Sweeps (3 hours); 3 mutually perpendicular axes.
T4 – Shock
This test also simulates vibration during transportation. Test is a Half-Sine pulse: 150G/6ms for small cells/batteries; 50G/11ms for large cells/batteries; 3 pulses per direction; 6 directions (+/-z, +/-x, +/-y). Same pass criteria as T1.
T5 – External Short Circuit
This test simulates an external short to the terminals of the cell or battery. At temperature of +55°C, apply short circuit (<0.1ohm) across terminals. Maintain at least an hour after sample temperature returns to +55 +/-2°C. Pass criteria are: Case temperature does not exceed +170°C and no disassembly, rupture, or fire within 6 hours of test. Fuse, current limiting circuit, and venting mechanism activation are allowable.
T6 – Impact
This test is only applicable to primary and secondary cells. For cylindrical cells >20mm diameter, it simulates impact to case of cell. For cylindrical cells <20mm diameter and all other cell constructions, it simulates crushing of a cell. Pass criteria for any type is: Case temperature does not exceed +170°C & no disassembly or fire within 6 hours of test.
T7 – Overcharge
This test is for secondary or rechargeable batteries only. It simulates an overcharge condition on a rechargeable battery: 2x the manufacturer’s recommended charge current for 24 hours. Then battery shall be monitored for 7 days for fire or disassembly.
T8 – Forced Discharge
This testing simulates a forced discharge condition for primary and secondary cells only.
