Battery Solution for Portable Military Communications
A manpack radio that goes silent in the third hour of a 24-hour mission is a logistics failure before it is an electronics failure. In my work at Horizon P…
Battery Solution for Smart Metering and AMI Networks
When a utility wants to cut truck rolls by 80% and turn a 10-million-meter fleet into a remotely managed endpoint grid, every node becomes only as reliabl…
Battery Solution for Film and Television Field Kits
I have spent more than ten years specifying and qualifying lithium cell packs for broadcast, cinema and field-production customers, and the same conversati…
Battery Solution for Emergency Response Command Vehicles
Most of the “battery solution” articles I have written for our customers begin with a kWh budget, a duty-cycle table, and a chemistry choice. The ones I g…
Battery Solution Testing for Robotics: Impedance-Drift
I have been signing off on battery solution testing robotics programs for warehouse AMRs, last-mile delivery robots, and surgical assistant platforms for e…
Battery Solution Design for Equipment: Load-Spectrum
Most failed custom battery solution programs I have audited in the last decade lost their way at the same two pinch points: the translation step between a…
Battery Solution Cost Optimization for Vehicles (2)
I have spent the last six years helping fleet operators turn a battery from a mysterious black box into a line item they can defend in front of a CFO. The…
Battery Solution Reliability for Sensors: LoRaWAN
I have been specifying remote sensor packs for nearly a decade, and the failure modes I see in the field almost never match what the datasheet predicts. T…
Battery Solution Performance for Robotics (2)
Most of the conversations we get about battery solution performance for robotics start with the wrong question. A buyer sends us a nameplate capacity, asks…
Battery Solution Testing for Robotics: End-of-Line
Every robotics programme I have supported eventually arrives at the same uncomfortable moment: the fleet is deployed, the robots are moving, and somebody a…
