Description
The XRT (Extra Run Time) Battery Pack is a 12.8V 18Ah (230Wh) LiFePO₄ battery developed specifically for Concept’s B1 Smoke Generator.
With up to 30 minutes of continuous runtime and a recharge time of just 3 hours, it’s the ideal solution for demanding fieldwork, off-grid testing, and portable applications where reliability is everything.
Built-in Intelligence: BMS Protection
Equipped with a fully integrated Battery Management System (BMS), the XRT safeguards against:
- Short circuits
- Overcharging
- Deep discharge
The BMS also auto-balances the internal cells, maximising lifespan, enhancing performance, and protecting against user mishandling.
Compared to traditional lead-acid batteries, LiFePO₄ offers:
- Up to 70% Lighter – Easier transport and deployment
- 4–5x Longer Lifespan – ~2000 charge cycles vs. 500 max. for lead-acid
- Superior Efficiency – Maintains performance even at high charge/discharge rates
- Safer Chemistry – No leaks, no thermal runaway, no explosion risk
- Environmentally Friendly – Lead, Cadmium, and Mercury-free
- Wide Operating Range – From -20°C to +60°C
- Very Low Self-Discharge – Holds charge longer in storage
Certified for Confidence – The XRT Battery is UN38.3 certified and conforms to IATA regulations, making it safe for air transport.
