American Dragonfly Energy this week launched a new 12 V lithium battery for applications in PV systems and off-grid environments.
“The new Battle Born smart batteries feature Dragonfly IntelLigence, the company’s patent-pending technology that provides comprehensive battery communication and monitoring capabilities,” the company said in a statement. “This innovation allows users to monitor the performance of individual batteries and entire battery banks in real time. Through the Battle Born mobile app, users can receive critical alerts, access detailed performance data, and view historical reports to optimize system performance. This advanced visibility improves system configuration, streamlines troubleshooting and ensures compliance with industry standards.”
The new battery has a capacity of 100 Ah and a discharge depth of 100%. It weighs 14 kg and uses lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery technology. The self-discharge rate is 2-3% per month.
The new product also features its own internal management system that reportedly provides high and low temperature shutdowns, high and low voltage protection, automatic cell balancing, cold charging protection and short circuit protection.
It comes with a 10-year warranty and is said to have a life cycle of over 5,000 cycles.
“Battle Born Batteries has provided customers across industries including RV, heavy trucking, industrial solar integration, off-grid residential and marine markets with reliable energy solutions,” said Dragonfly Energy.
