Innovative PowerSwap Nucleus Lithium Power System
PowerSwap Nucleus® Lithium Power System

The FIRST lithium portable power pack designed for industrial environments
The new PowerSwap Nucleus® Lithium Power System from Newcastle Systems raises the bar for workplace mobility.

Why Nucleus?
A nucleus is, by definition, the central and most important part of an object, movement, or group, forming the basis for its activity and growth. This small, swappable, durable, portable battery pack is central to a mobile workstation system, providing the power for productivity.
The PowerSwap Nucleus® enables productivity to happen by providing power to devices such as a laptop, tablet, barcode or inkjet printer, scanner and more for 8+ hours at a time.
Once the battery charge is depleted, simply swap it with a fully charged one in a matter of seconds enabling a 24/7 operation. No tools or heavy lifting required.

The PowerSwap Nucleus® Lithium Power System offers a swappable battery that weighs in at a mere 11 lbs, allowing for any employee to easily swap them or move them to the charger at the end of a shift.
Outstanding Benefits
Lightweight: Only 11 lbs per battery
Error-Proof: Never lose a full day of production due to someone forgetting to charge the cart.
Fully Swappable: In a matter of seconds so you'll never run out of battery power
Durable: 5-7 year battery life or 3,000 cycles - making it a great investment
Hardware-Friendly: Quiet, seamless AC power (no need to source for DC specific hardware)

**Lithium Safety Concerns**: The Newcastle battery employs Lithium-Iron Phosphate technology, which is significantly more stable than standard lithium-ion or lithium-polymer solutions. Unlike these chemistries, Lithium-Iron Phosphate batteries are not subject to potentially dangerous ignition events when subjected to over-heating or mechanical abuse.

At 460 watt hours per battery pack, the PowerSwap Nucleus® Lithium Power System is the most powerful mobile workstation battery of its size. Its AC output will power over 80% of standard workstation configurations for a full shift with only 1 or 2 batteries!
Sealed, tough plastic casing means your power source can survive in the toughest industrial conditions.
