Custom Lithium Battery Solutions — Engineered for Precision
At CHARGEX®, we design and manufacture highly customized lithium battery systems for demanding applications in Aerospace, Defense, Marine, Industrial, Telecom, and OEM markets. Since pioneering the first drop-in replacement lithium-ion battery in 2010, we’ve continued to lead the industry with purpose-built, application-specific solutions.
Tailored Power for Mission-Critical Applications
No two applications are the same—and neither are our batteries. Our engineering team works directly with clients to develop fully customized lithium battery packs, meticulously tailored to your project’s:
-
Voltage, capacity, and form factor
-
Battery Management System (BMS) functionality
-
Communication protocols (CAN, RS485, SMBus)
-
Housing, environmental sealing, and thermal control
-
Compliance with aerospace, military, or industrial standards
Whether you need a one-off prototype or scalable OEM production, we deliver precision-built, reliable solutions engineered for the highest performance and safety standards.
Global Presence. Local Excellence.
With manufacturing partnerships across the U.S. and internationally, CHARGEX® maintains full control over quality, ethics, and supply chain reliability.
