Boston-Power Lithium-ion Battery Technology Overview
Boston-Power is fueled by the unwavering vision of bringing dependable power to everyday applications. With that as our mission, we have created a lithium-ion battery technology platform that delivers on the promise of long life, fast charge, safety and environmental sustainability.
Lithium-ion Battery Technology Platform
Our patent-pending lithium-ion battery technology platform is based on a design that emphasizes a whole system approach capable of powering end applications ranging from portable consumer electronics to electric vehicles and next-generation utility energy storage. Our breakthrough technology, with over 120 patents pending in the United States and internationally, is based on a combination of unique chemistry formulations, plus mechanical engineering and electrical designs at the cell and system level that enable us to deliver on the promise.
Our battery technology platform is based on a flat, oval-shaped prismatic cell design with external dimensions equivalent to two conventional 18650 lithium-ion cells. The design includes an aluminum can, supporting high energy density, dependable cycle-life, and multiple independent safety features. We have introduced two products from this technology platform:
- Sonata® cells for notebook and portable power applications, and
- Swing™ cells for electric vehicle, industrial and utility applications.
Our cells are in mass production today, in our advanced lithium-ion battery manufacturing facilities in Asia, with the capacity to scale to millions of cells per month.
