YOUR BATTERY’S BEST FRIEND
By LAWRENCE NEILL | 9 MAY 2016.
What is your definition of a best friend? Is it someone you can count on in time of need? Or is it someone who complements you and makes you feel good about yourself? If this is part of your definition of a best friend, then it can be said that KISAE is well on its way to being your Battery’s Best Friend.
Friendship is everything. Virtually all KISAE products are designed to work with a battery. Some or our products convert battery power from the 12V (or in some cases 24V) battery into household grade AC current (KISAE DC to AC Power inverters). Others replenish the battery when it is running down by recharging it from the utility (KISAE Battery Chargers). KISAE even makes some products that do both of these things (KISAE inverter-chargers). There are KISAE products that protect the battery from being over-charged by a PV solar panel (KISAE solar charge controllers). And there are even KISAE products that integrate a battery with some of these products, resulting in stand-along power sources (KISAE Home Solar Kits and Powerpacks).
Being a battery’s best friend is very important to KISAE because batteries are vital in today’s power hungry world. Batteries represent a power source that allows electronics, appliances, and other devices to be used portably and in remote applications. They offer a back-up power source that can be relied upon when the utility grid is down or unavailable. Batteries are rechargeable devices that help provide independence and mobility to millions of people every day.
Like many friendships, KISAE’s relationship with batteries is longstanding and yet constantly evolving, primarily because battery technology itself is evolving. New technologies have emerged that allow batteries to run longer, experience many more discharges and re-charges than previous generations, and physically be made more lightweight and compact in size. As a result, KISAE products are also evolving to make them more adaptable to suit the many different battery chemistries available; more multi-functional to ensure they convert and replenish the battery properly, thereby guaranteeing a long, well-maintained battery life; and more efficient which saves their owners the cost of early or premature replacement. That product evolution continues with batteries that are integrated into self-contained systems that are appropriate to the application and budget concerns of KISAE customers.
How does KISAE maintain this evolutionary path? By keeping abreast of leading-edge advancements in battery technology through interaction with the leading battery scientists and manufacturers. As part of our ongoing regiment for product improvement, we continually test our products with the different battery types they are intended to be operated with. We also pay attention to how our customers are using batteries in the field to better understand how we can optimize that need and improve their experience with KISAE products.
Being your battery’s best friend is part of our fulfilling KISAE’s ongoing mission. It guides our product development path as well as a constant stream of new ideas and emerging customer expectations. That is why as much as KISAE is the best friend to your battery, the battery is just as much the best friend to KISAE.
