WICHITA, Kansas — True Blue Power has introduced two lithium-ion battery chargers to its line of advanced power products: The True Blue Charger PRO and True Blue Charger Mx.
“Our lithium-ion batteries contribute to a significant reduction in carbon emissions and enable lightweight, more electric aircraft to achieve success,” said Erik Ritzman, Vice President of True Blue Power. “As industry experts, we’ve leveraged years of maintenance and lithium-ion battery experience to bring two easy-to-use chargers to market. The True Blue Charger PRO and Mx take the guess work out of charging, discharging, and maintaining lithium-ion batteries.”
True Blue Charger PRO
The TT28-12 True Blue Charger PRO is specifically designed to charge, discharge, and test True Blue Power lithium-ion aircraft batteries. Pre-loaded with all necessary parameters, it allows maintenance personnel to safely and efficiently top charge batteries and perform scheduled capacity checks, according to company officials.
The True Blue Charger PRO can automatically discharge lithium-ion aircraft batteries to 30% state-of-charge (SOC), as required for air shipment.
Price: $3,656.
True Blue Charger Mx
The TT28-2 True Blue Charger Mx maintains lithium-ion and sealed lead-acid aircraft batteries of any capacity, while continuously displaying battery voltage. The direct-connect, 2.5-amp charger extends battery life and can be used for standby maintenance without trickle charging.
Price: $1,206.
