WGO - Lithionics Battery Makes Debut at IBEX 2023 Show Showcases First-of-its-Kind Dual Channel Battery System | Benzinga
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Oct. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lithionics Battery ("Lithionics"), a premier lithium-ion battery solutions provider to the recreational equipment and specialty vehicle market and wholly-owned subsidiary of Winnebago Industries (NYSE:WGO), will make its premiere at the International Boatbuilders Exhibition & Conference (IBEX) in Tampa, Florida from October 3-5.
Lithionics, a leader in lithium-ion batteries since 2010, offers advanced battery solutions that leverage proprietary battery management software and feature certification from Underwriters Laboratories Solutions ("UL"), a leader in safety accreditation and testing. At IBEX, Lithionics will showcase its line of efficient, UL Listed, marine-grade IP67 lithium-ion batteries which are now available to the broader marine boat building market.

"Dual channel" means that the charge side of the battery system can be isolated from the load side of the system by the BMS. In the rare case of a high-voltage cut-off from any charge sources, the BMS will isolate the battery module, ensuring the electrical system on a boat remains functional. With this system, boaters can have peace of mind that integral systems such as navigation will not shut off while on the water. The system also reduces generator run times, leading to significant savings in maintenance costs for boaters.
Benefits of the dual channel Never-Die® BMS include:
