If your exit sign or emergency light won’t hold a charge, blinks during a self-test, or fails its required 90-minute discharge test, the fix is almost always the same: the internal emergency exit backup battery has reached the end of its life. Facility managers, electrical contractors, and OEMs who search for “exit sign battery replacement,” […]
Every autonomous surface vehicle (ASV) design involves a trade‑off among endurance, payload, and available space. The battery pack sits right at the center of that trade‑off. Engineers often search for “ASV battery,” “USV power system,” “14.8V Li-ion battery pack,” or “high-capacity marine battery.” They are almost always trying to solve the same problem: fitting enough […]
A solar garden light battery endures a tough life. It sits outside through rain, frost, and summer heat. It charges daily from a small solar panel. And it must power lights every night for years—all without any maintenance. This challenge is fundamentally a power system design problem, not merely a bill-of-materials exercise. For this reason, […]
When a snow measurement station goes up on an exposed mountain ridge, its battery must survive harsh conditions. Most electronics were never built for such extremes. Sub‑zero winds, months of weak sunlight, and no technician within reach for years all place the burden on one component. That component is the power source. This is exactly […]
By Dawn • Battery Engineer, Safety & Compliance • Himax Electronics • July 2026 Topics: Medical Battery Pack / Li-ion Safety / BMS / IEC 62133 / Custom Pack Development Designing a medical device battery pack 25.2V requires more than just picking cells and wiring them together. When a medical device team reaches out about a […]
By Joan • Battery Engineer, Custom Pack Development • Himax Electronics • July 2026 Topics: LiFePO4 Battery Pack / Solar Energy / Commissioning Tool / OEM Custom Battery / Outdoor Power Executive Summary Designing a LiFePO4 solar tracker battery for portable commissioning tools requires a different mindset than typical daily‑cycle applications. This post explains why a 25.6V 18Ah […]
By Alden • Battery Engineer, Manufacturing & Quality Control • Himax Electronics • July 2026 Category: Li-ion Battery / Robot Power Pack / 18650 Cell / OEM Manufacturing / Quality Control Most battery-related problems I encounter on the production floor don’t start with a bad cell. However, they start with a wrong cell. The wrong […]
By Nath • Battery Engineer, Cell Selection & Performance • Himax Electronics • July 2026 Category: LiPo Battery / Handheld Instruments / Color Analysis / OEM Battery / North America Color measurement instruments have a dimension tolerance problem most people outside the industry don’t think about: the battery. Not the sensor, not the firmware, not […]
When sourcing power solutions for high-demand applications like golf carts or marine vessels, B2B buyers and OEMs prioritize three critical factors. These are unshakeable safety, consistent power output, and exceptional physical durability. After all, equipment failure in the field or on the water is simply not an option. Designed specifically to tackle these harsh environments, […]
Published by Himax Electronics • July 2026 In industrial equipment, vehicle-mounted systems, outdoor security installations, energy storage backup, and extreme-environment applications ranging from polar expeditions to high-heat industrial enclosures, a battery’s ability to perform across temperature extremes directly determines the reliability and service life of the entire system. Standard Ni-MH batteries operate in a narrow […]
