Forest River Taps Expion360 Batteries for Two Additional Brands

Expion360 Inc. announced the continued expansion of its presence within Forest River.

Building on an established and growing relationship that already spans its Dynamax and East to West product lines, Forest River has selected Expion360 batteries for integration into two additional motorized brands: Georgetown and Dynamax Grand Sport. The selection underscores the confidence Forest River has in Expion360’s technology and their ability to meet the safety, performance and reliability standards expected by premium motorized RV customers, the companies said.

Expion360’s presence within Forest River is the result of a relationship built on consistent performance and a shared commitment to delivering quality to the end customer. Expion360 has been supplying Dynamax, Forest River’s premium Class C motorized brand, with lithium battery systems and has established a proven track record within Forest River’s East to West division as well. At the center of the Dynamax relationship is Expion360’s 12V 240Ah Edge battery, a high-capacity lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) solution that has become the dominant power platform across Dynamax units and a testament to the reliability Expion360 brings to demanding motorized applications. A foundation of real-world performance across multiple product lines paved the way for Forest River’s decision to extend the Expion360 platform into Georgetown and Dynamax Grand Sport, two of its most-recognized motorized offerings. For Expion360, the expansion represents a validation of what its engineering and operations teams have been building toward, and a meaningful step in its original equipment manufacturer strategy within the motorized RV segment.

Central to Expion360’s OEM value proposition is a commitment to third-party certified safety and proprietary technology that goes beyond standard lithium battery offerings. Expion360’s battery packs carry UL1973 certification, the recognized benchmark for batteries used in stationary, vehicle and mobile applications. Achieving UL1973 requires rigorous independent testing across electrical, mechanical and environmental abuse conditions, giving OEM manufacturers and end customers alike the confidence that every unit shipped has met an independently verified safety standard.

The same engineering discipline extends to thermal performance. Expion360’s proprietary Vertical Heat Conduction technology delivers uniform heat distribution at the individual cell level, ensuring reliable performance in cold-weather conditions where conventional lithium batteries can fall short. Combined with UL1973-certified safety validation, in-house engineering, a build standard designed to handle the vibration, thermal cycling, and sustained power demands of motorized RV applications, Expion360 delivers a battery platform that Forest River can confidently stand behind.

Brian Clemens, group general manager of Forest River Motorized at Forest River Inc., said: “As we continue to evolve our motorized lineup, we look closely at the components that directly impact the owner experience. Expion360 has demonstrated consistent performance across our Dynamax and East to West brands, and that real-world track record gave us the assurance to expand usage of their batteries into Georgetown and Dynamax Grand Sport. It’s important that the technology we integrate is not only advanced but also gives our dealers confidence in what they’re selling while delivering dependable performance for our customers.”

Carson Heagen, chief operating officer of Expion360, added: “Forest River is one of the most demanding and respected OEM partners in the industry, and our growing presence across Dynamax, East to West and Georgetown reflects the performance, reliability, and trust our team has built and proven over time. Expion360 was founded on innovative engineering and an unwavering commitment to safety, quality, and reliability, which is exactly what Forest River’s motorized customers expect. We are proud of how this relationship has grown and remain committed to delivering dependable battery technology that powers every adventure and every mission that matters.”
