Custom Battery Pack Thermal Management: When Is It Needed?

Not every custom battery pack requires an active cooling system. However, thermal management should be considered whenever a lithium-ion battery operates under conditions that can generate significant heat, such as high current, high C-rate, long duty cycles, high ambient temperatures, or demanding charging conditions. For OEM and ODM projects, thermal performance is not determined by […]

Pool Cleaning Robot Battery Selection Guide: OEM/ODM Engineering & Customization

Introduction: The Unique Challenges of Underwater Robotics Pool cleaning robots represent one of the fastest-growing segments in marine and domestic service robotics. Unlike terrestrial vacuums, underwater cleaning robots operate in highly demanding environments involving direct water submersion, high static pressure, ambient chemical exposure (chlorine and salt water), and dynamic impeller load fluctuations. At the heart […]

UN38.3 Battery Certification Explained: What You Need to Know

UN38.3 refers to Section 38.3 of the United Nations Manual of Tests and Criteria. The standard ensures that lithium-ion and lithium metal batteries can safely withstand thermal, mechanical, and electrical stresses encountered during global transport without: Leaking hazardous materials Rupturing structural enclosures Experiencing thermal runaway or catching fire Disassembling or exploding Failure to present verified […]

How to Store Batteries Properly: Temperature, SoC, and Transportation Requirements Explained

Whether holding inventory in a warehouse or shipping products internationally, ambient storage conditions and State-of-Charge (SoC) are the defining factors in battery safety, performance, and longevity. For most battery chemistries, cool and dry conditions around 15°C (59°F) are recommended for long-term storage. Depending on battery chemistry and product specifications, allowable storage temperatures may range from […]

Custom Lithium-ion Battery Pack Design: Serie /Parallel Configurations Guide

Designing a custom battery pack requires balancing voltage, capacity, thermal safety, and cell consistency. Connecting battery cells in series increases overall terminal voltage, while parallel connections increase total amp-hour (Ah) capacity. Combining both in Series/Parallel (e.g., 4S2P) enables custom voltage and energy densities for medical devices, e-bikes, drones. Fundamentals of Battery Cell Configurations: Series vs. […]
