LFP Batteries
Design, vendor selection and cost down for Fenix International
Selected Projects.
Launch: Conversion of a product line from lead-acid batteries to LFP - initiated when cost-value monitoring suggested conversion was viable.
Prototype and Test (battery, BMS, pack and integration with product)
Field testing with customers (feedback, refine product firmware, finalize pack specification)
Deploy at scale into manufacturing
Development: Product family using multiple networked packs and multiple software defined capacities
Cost-down: With field proven reliability, small adjustments were possible to reduce cost while maintaining backwards compatibility.
Results: Efforts enabled a pay-as-you-go business model that relies on long-life batteries.
