Overview

NOTE: NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE SAFARI ME.

When you need to power things longer, the Safari Expansion Pack™ (Safari-XP) gives you 3X the energy storage capacity than the Safari alone.

More stored energy – 3X the stored energy when you connect the XP expansion pack to the Lion Energy Safari for 4,300Wh total

Easy to connect – Just plug it into the back of the Safari

Maintenance free – Retains charge for up to 1 year

*Must be used with the Lion Safari to have power

MORE POWER. MORE VERSATILITY

Expand the Lion Energy Safari from 1,612Wh to 4,300Wh of power, giving you all the portable power you need.

FEATURES

With the Safari and the Safari XP, plug in anything from power tools, mini-fridge, CPAP, TVs, power tools, blenders, laptops, drones, lamps, to cameras and phones. Keep projects going with all the power you need. The Lion Safari+XP has the perfect inverter size (3,000W) with an impressive 4,300 watt-hour lithium iron phosphate battery, allowing you to use your devices for the longest period of time.

How to read this datasheet

Detailed specifications for Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack have not been published yet. Lion Energy lists this battery in the Batteries, and we add fields as the manufacturer releases them — in the meantime, ask your distributor for the datasheet before ordering.

For a battery, the figures that matter most are continuous charge and discharge current, which limits how much power you can draw from the pack, cycle life at a stated depth of discharge, commonly 3,000–6,000 cycles for LiFePO4, round-trip efficiency, around 90–95% for lithium and 75–85% for lead-acid and communication protocol (CAN or RS485) for talking to the inverter. Storage is what turns a solar array from a daytime bill-reducer into a system that covers evening loads and rides through outages. It is normally the single most expensive component, so sizing it correctly matters more than with any other part.

Choosing a battery: the checks that matter

The checks below apply to any battery. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.

Check the continuous discharge rating against your inverter. A battery that stores plenty of energy but can only deliver 50 A cannot support a large inverter at full output.
Match voltage to the inverter, and confirm the battery appears on the inverter maker's supported list. Closed-loop communication lets the inverter respect the battery's real charge limits instead of guessing.
Read the warranty in full: lithium warranties are stated as a term plus either a cycle count or a total energy throughput, and whichever limit arrives first ends the cover.
Leave room to expand. Packs that parallel cleanly let you add capacity later; ones that do not force a full replacement.

Common mistakes

Sizing the bank for total daily consumption rather than after-dark consumption, which typically doubles the cost for no benefit.
Installing lithium packs in an unventilated, hot enclosure. Sustained high temperature is the fastest way to lose cycle life.
Ignoring the charge current limit and pairing a large array with a small bank, which trips protection and shortens life.

Price and availability

Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack is listed at $ 1,299 (USD). Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.

SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in your country: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports Lion Energy locally before ordering.

Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack — frequently asked questions

How much does Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack cost?

Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack is listed at $ 1,299 (USD). The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.

Who makes Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack?

Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack is a Lion Energy product, listed under batteries with model reference 50170147. The Lion Energy brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.

Is Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack right for my system?

That depends on what it has to connect to. For a battery, check usable capacity after depth of discharge — LiFePO4 typically allows 80–100%, lead-acid closer to 50%, system voltage: 12 V, 24 V and 48 V for low-voltage packs, or a high-voltage stack and continuous charge and discharge current, which limits how much power you can draw from the pack against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Size from your evening consumption. Add up what actually runs after sunset for the hours you want covered, then divide by the usable capacity per unit — that number, not the array size, sets how many batteries you need.

Where can I buy Lion Energy Safari 2,688wH Expansion Battery Pack (XP) | Safari Portable Solar Power Battery Pack?

SolarBazaar lists and compares equipment rather than selling it. Use the specifications and price here to shortlist, then buy through an authorised distributor or installer — buying in-channel is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid.
