Lithium battery maker Expion360 announced it has completed UL 1973 compliance on its 60-120Ah batteries.
Because of the growing demand for lithium batteries, they were added to the 2020 edition of the RV Industry’s adopted, American Standards Institute (ANSI) Low-Voltage Standard. To be included in RV products, lithium batteries must be listed by a third-party listing agency recognized by the RV Industry Association. The listing agency gives their independent stamp of approval which addresses thermal run-away, having a management or protection system to provide safety in situations of high/low voltages and temperatures, limiting high current output, and cell balancing.
“The cornerstone to all our battery designs is safety. Meeting the UL 1973 compliance was imperative in our continual success and a milestone for Expion360,” said John Yozamp, CEO of Expion 360.
