Ryobi 48V 60Ah Lithium Battery Replacement Kit
The GC2-60-48-Ryobi is a high-capacity upgrade built for riders needing extended runtime beyond what a standard battery can deliver. Using two GC2-30-48 LiFePO₄ modules linked in parallel, this system provides a full 60Ah of capacity, offering substantially longer mowing time, higher sustained discharge current, and noticeably steadier blade speed under load compared to sealed lead-acid.
This is the ideal upgrade for large lawns, heavy cutting resistance, hilly terrain, or users who simply don’t want to stop mid-mow to recharge.
Built for Large Yards, Thick Grass & Long Sessions
Where a 30Ah kit suits average properties, the Ryobi 48V 60Ah lithium battery replacement is designed for acreage and demanding mowing.
Most users can expect ~1.3–2.0+ acres per charge, depending on:
• Deck width
• Grass height/density
• Terrain incline
• Cutting speed + blade type
Expect:
✔ Double the runtime of 30Ah
✔ Minimal voltage drop under load
✔ Cleaner & more consistent cut quality
✔ No mid-session downtime
✔ Steady performance near empty
What’s Included in the 60Ah Kit
• 2 × GC2-30-48 48V 30Ah LiFePO₄ modules (60Ah total)
• Parallel connection busbar (links modules into one pack)
• 48V lithium charger with fast recharge compatibility
• Lithium battery fuel gauge monitoring (optional)
• Smart BMS inside each module for full system protection
• Connection + installation guidance
Dual-BMS architecture provides redundancy, cell balancing, thermal control, and charge/discharge protection.
Compatible Ryobi Models
Compatible with Ryobi platforms that use the removable lead-acid tray, including:
RY48110, RY48111, RY48112, RY48130, RY48131,
RY48ZTR75, RY48ZTR100, RY48ZTR100VNM
If your machine uses the SLA tray, this pack is almost always compatible.

Who Should Choose the 60Ah Kit?
Choose 60Ah if you:
✔ Mow more than 1 acre at a time
✔ Encounter dense, wet or tall grass regularly
✔ Want one-charge full property coverage
✔ Use a zero-turn and need more draw capacity
✔ Don’t want to recharge mid-session
A 30Ah kit suits smaller areas — many customers start with 30Ah and expand to 60Ah later.
