KADEX Aero Supply Announced as Distributor of True Blue Power Advanced Lithium-ion Batteries

KADEX Aero Supply announces it has secured distribution for True Blue Power's advanced lithium-ion batteries.

True Blue advanced lithium-ion batteries utilize Nanophosphate® lithium-ion cell chemistry to provide unmatched power, safety, energy and life. Weighing less than lead-acid and nickel cadmium alternatives and with reduced maintenance cost, the True Blue Power advanced lithium-ion batteries deliver weight savings and an overall lower cost of ownership. Multiple layers of protection are employed at the chemistry-, cell- and system-level to achieve an energy storage solution with superior safety and abuse tolerance compared to metal oxide lithium-ion chemistries.

John Lavery, president of KADEX, says, “We pride ourselves on offering lower cost of ownership options, and these batteries do exactly that. With a six to ten year life span, 45% lighter than the lead-acid and nickel-cadmium alternative, and 2-year service interval, there will clearly be reduced operating costs.”

True Blue advanced litihium-ion batteries are STC-approved and available in five different sizes (TB17, TB35, TB40, TB44, TB46) for fixed wing or rotorcraft application. True Blue Power is working on offering lightweight battery solutions for all piston and turbo prop aircraft. New approvals are expected soon.

True Blue Power products, including its advanced lithium-ion batteries, are available through KADEX Aero Supply Ltd., located in Peterborough, Ontario, and Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
