Ampace unleashes JP30 cylindrical lithium battery revolution

In Xiamen, China, on December 13, 2024, Ampace unveiled the JP30 cylindrical lithium battery, highlighting a significant evolution in battery technology aimed at overcoming the limitations previously associated with 18650 batteries. Ampace's Chief Technology Officer, Dr. Yuan Qingfeng, expressed that the industry had underestimated the power capabilities of these batteries until now. The new JP30 battery showcases a compact design alongside an impressive performance leap, making it suitable for various applications with strict size and weight requirements. The advancements in the JP30 encompass multiple areas, particularly in power output, pulse discharge capabilities, battery life, charging speed, and performance in low temperatures. With a continuous discharge capacity of 36A and an impressive pulse discharge of 140A in just five seconds, the JP30 enhances operational efficiency, especially in demanding tasks like steel cutting and concrete drilling. The battery's capacity has been increased to 3.0Ah from the previous 2.5Ah, which represents a 20% enhancement, ensuring even more robust power delivery. Longer battery life is another key feature—under a 30A discharge, users can expect over 600 cycles, far surpassing traditional 18650 batteries, which only provide a fraction of that lifespan. Additionally, when discharged at 20A, the JP30 can exceed 1000 cycles, effectively reducing the overall cost per use. Its rapid charging capabilities, charging to 80% in just 10 minutes, underscore its practicality, allowing for streamlined operations in situations where time is of the essence. This rapid charge time is notably 60% faster than conventional options, allowing users to rely on fewer batteries for outdoor tasks. The launch of the JP30 not only underscores Ampace's innovative spirit but also its strategic position within the high-power battery market. As technology continues to evolve, the JP30 is positioned as a pioneering solution that can unlock the full potential of power tools, reflecting Ampace's commitment to performing at the forefront of battery technology. With the introduction of this compact yet powerful battery, Ampace is poised to make a significant impact across various industries, expanding the boundaries of what battery technology can achieve and catering to the increasing demands of the marketplace, thereby reinforcing its role as a leader in the field.
