LITHIUM-MANGANESE DIOXIDE BATTERIES

Ultralife's high-energy lithium-manganese dioxide (Li/MnO2) batteries are utilized by military organizations throughout the world to provide both primary and back-up power for a wide range of communications equipment, imaging devices and weapons systems. These advanced-technology batteries provide long storage life with virtually instant power when needed and surpass strict military performance requirements.

Ultralife HiRate® cylindrical batteries, a breakthrough in lithium battery technology, are spiral-wound and provide high capacity with ultra-high rates of discharge - even in extreme temperatures. These lithium-manganese dioxide batteries have no voltage delay at start-up and are significantly safer than any comparable high rate system. Cells have a 10-year shelf life and are available in various standard sizes.

Widely used in military and industrial applications, the batteries are usually configured in multi-cell packs, allowing for optimum voltages and capacities for specific applications.

LITHIUM ION BATTERIES

Ultralife's lithium ion rechargeable batteries are ideal for portable electronics specially designed for military use because they offer high energy density, high capacity and long cycle life, with no memory effect. These batteries, which operate over a wide temperature range, are ideal for rugged military use where equipment is required to operate in extreme conditions.
