As already announced, we have had to adjust the prices for our core product range with immediate effect.
As a result, the range of functions has been improved - further reducing the effort required for commissioning and servicing...
As a young development company with its own marketing, production and customer service in Germany, supported by core suppliers in other European countries, we are positioning ourselves sustainably on the market.
True to our credo "quality before quantity", we have always endeavored to provide our customers with sustainable & high-quality products at an attractive price-performance ratio and have so far been able to keep prices largely* stable, while the range of functions, performance & customer service have been continuously improved over the last 6 years.
LITE↯BLOX batteries - 6 years Made In Germany
After an initial market research, the still young company's first market research in 2014 WeightWorks GmbH The decision was made to develop our own lithium-based starter battery, the LITE↯BLOX, which can meet the requirements of modern vehicles with complex control technology and energy recuperation in the long term and can fully replace the standard starter battery.
Contrary to the usual trend in the industry of importing low-quality lithium batteries from China, our aim from day one was to develop a technology-leading product with a focus on quality and safety:
The battery cell used plays a special role here, as each battery pack consists of a combination of individual cells that are only as resilient, powerful and safe as the weakest cell in the combination. We have always made no compromises in this respect and rely exclusively on premium LFP storage cells of the latest generation (GEN3) from A123 Systems or LithiumWerks in our LITE↯BLOX.
These are specially assembled by our German core supplier according to our specifications and therefore meet the stringent requirements for use in the automotive performance sector in terms of starting performance, service life and operating environment.
In January 2014, initial tests will be carried out on relevant LiFePO4 battery cells for this purpose and, in parallel, a housing concept with a CFRP foam sandwich structure will be developed, which reduces influencing factors such as heat and mechanical stress to a minimum and thus significantly increases the service life of the lithium cells:
From the very beginning, we have relied on in-house development, refusing to use existing electronic components from model making - as is usual with relevant competitors - and developing our own battery management system (BMS).
Before the official market launch in 2015, the first prototypes of the future series product were sent for testing to selected partners in professional motorsport, who were able to confirm the advantages of the concept pursued so far in the field, so that at the end of 2014 the first LITE↯BLOX generation "GEN1" from our manufactory -Made In Germany- could go into small series production - the foundation stone for our current, technology-leading product series:
