Epsilor's New COMBATT 6T Battery for Military Applications
Epsilor Electric Fuel Ltd., a globally recognized name in the development and manufacturing of intelligent lithium-ion batteries and chargers, has completed the creation of its next-generation COMBATT 6T battery tailored for military vehicles. This groundbreaking battery comes with an impressive capacity of
4,400 Wh/174 Ah, marking it as the highest energy capacity on the market today.
Industry-Leading Energy Density
What sets the COMBATT 6T battery apart is its remarkable energy density. It has
six times the energy density compared to traditional lead-acid batteries of a similar 6T form factor and offers
50% more energy than other lithium 6T batteries currently available. This advancement not only enhances the performance of military vehicles but also provides a robust solution for various applications within defense systems.
Unveiling at DSEI UK 2025
The new COMBATT ELI-52526-GM battery will be showcased at the
DSEI UK 2025 exhibition, scheduled from
September 9 to 12. Visitors can find Epsilor at
Stand N11-104 during this significant event, where the company will demonstrate the capabilities and advantages of its innovative battery technology.
Purpose-Built for Extreme Conditions
Designed for use in defense vehicles, deployable weapon systems, and marine applications, the COMBATT 6T battery is engineered to withstand extreme conditions. Weighing in at just
27 kg, it provides military users with high energy output without sacrificing portability. Over the past year, this battery model underwent rigorous testing as part of the company's certification campaign aimed at achieving compliance with
MIL-PRF-32565C. These tests, conducted in U.S. laboratories, evaluated the battery's performance under various scenarios, including projectile penetration resistance, exposure to temperatures as high as
500 °C, and functionality across varying thermal conditions.
Addressing Safety Concerns
Safety has always been a significant concern regarding lithium batteries. Ronen Badichi, President and CEO of Epsilor, stated, “With our new COMBATT battery, we have overcome the safety issues commonly associated with lithium batteries, which pose a considerable challenge. By employing a unique energy-absorbing design, we deliver the highest energy capacity in the 6T category while meeting the stringent safety requirements of U.S. Army standards.”
