PowerSwap Nucleus® Lithium Power System

The FIRST lithium portable power pack designed for industrial environments

powerswap-nucleus-litium-power-system

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.

The typical PowerSwap Nucleus®  Lithium Power System consists of the following individual components:

  • 2 Swappable Batteries (PSNU3.6)
  • PowerDock Station (PWD2)
  • PowerCharge Station (PWC2)

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. 

Features of our Powerswap System Include:

  • 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.
