For anyone who’s spent time touring Australia, one truth becomes clear: the gear you take with you is only as good as its weakest link. 

Power, in particular, can make or break a trip. That’s where Custom Lithium, a family-owned company out of Brendale, Queensland, has carved out a reputation among 4×4 owners and travellers.

Founded with the goal of producing ultra-compact, high-capacity lithium batteries, Custom Lithium’s products are designed to cope with the punishing conditions that remote touring dishes out. From corrugated tracks in the desert to humid coastal campsites, reliability is what makes the difference between a hassle-free adventure and a ruined trip.

Custom Lithium sells Australian-made lithium batteries for caravans, 4x4s and off-grid applications. The product range includes Ultra Slim, Slim, and Compact 12V batteries (100–310 Ah) for tight spaces, high-capacity caravan and RV batteries (400-620 Ah), and 24V/48V system batteries for higher-voltage setups.

Also in the catalogue are vehicle-specific kits and off-road power solutions, along with accessories such as mounting brackets, battery monitors and chargers, all designed to integrate seamlessly into touring rigs, camper trailers and 4WD setups.

But there’s more to the business than just the batteries themselves. Custom Lithium has taken a deliberately community-first approach, putting as much energy into supporting local clubs, grassroots sport, and community projects as it does into product development. It’s a philosophy rooted in family values – one that resonates strongly with the 4×4 community, where mateship and support networks are central to the lifestyle.

The company’s partnerships aren’t about slapping a logo on a jersey. Each one is chosen for its real impact, whether that’s helping a junior team stay on the field or backing projects that create lasting change. In this way, the story of Custom Lithium is as much about people as it is about technology.

For off-roaders, it’s a reminder that choosing Australian-made gear can carry broader benefits. Investing in a Custom Lithium setup means not just securing dependable power for the track, but also helping sustain a business that puts community and values at the heart of its operation.
