Flux Power unveils higher-power lithium battery line for Class III vehicles

In a press conference on Tuesday, Flux Power (Booth 5527) announced the debut of the beta version of its 500Ahe LiFT Pack model E3 lithium-ion battery for end rider pallet jacks. The more powerful model can run larger Class III equipment, said CEO Ron Dutt.

“The new version is in response to customer requests for a higher power lithium storage alternative to legacy lead-acid batteries,” he said.
Dutt noted that the company has secured OEM and global customer technical approvals for its original 250Ahe, 135Ahe and 80Ahe LiFT Pack models engineered to power walkie pallet jacks. All models are on display in the company’s exhibit, Dutt added.

“Our lithium battery packs exceed traditional lead-acid battery performance at a lower total cost of ownership, delivering longer run times, sustained high power performance, limited maintenance and a greener solution,” he said.
