Motorola Solutions Marks 10 Year Anniversary of IMPRES™ Battery Patented Technology
June 14 2011 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) today celebrates the
10-year anniversary of its patented IMPRES two-way radio battery
and charger technology. The portfolio has expanded to include more
than 40 battery and charger products. Software enhancements such as
IMPRES Battery Fleet Management and Battery Data Reader allow the
user to see real time and historical battery usage, while also
helping budget planning for replacement batteries.
KEY FACTS
- IMPRES batteries store and communicate
data to their chargers through a unique communication protocol
designed to increase talk-time and battery life. This leads to
enhanced safety and productivity and can maximize return on
investment for customers.
- Madison, Wis. was the first IMPRES
customer. During the past 10 years the city has purchased nearly
4,000 IMPRES batteries representing 84 percent of its total two-way
radio battery portfolio.
- The first IMPRES batteries were for the
Motorola ASTRO® Saber radios. We now offer a portfolio of batteries
for all of our major radio platforms including MOTOTRBO™, APX™,
XTS™ series and HT Professional Series. The technology has been
expanded to include new chargers with displays, a dual-unit charger
and new battery management applications such as IMPRES Battery Data
Reader and IMPRES Battery Fleet Management.
- IMPRES chargers use technology that
avoids overcharging. Additionally, single-unit IMPRES chargers with
external power supplies consume 40 percent less energy in standby
mode than required by the U.S. Energy Independence and Security Act
of 2007.
SUPPORTING QUOTES
Nick Candotti, director of Global Accessory and Energy
Business, Motorola Solutions
“Over the past 10 years we have been proud to offer customers
the unmatched quality of our IMPRES line of batteries and chargers.
We have expanded the portfolio based on customer feedback and
research, and we continue to look for ways to provide enhanced
battery capabilities that serve our customers’ individual
needs.”
Keith Lippert, communications operations supervisor,
city of Madison, Wis.
“All of the IMPRES features ensure that users don’t have to
worry about battery performance. They can put the battery on the
radio, put the radio on their belt and know it’s going to do what
they ask of it.”
“In the long run IMPRES batteries are much better value than
other batteries because they’re more reliable and they last
longer.”
