On February 4th, the XXIV Winter Olympic Games officially opened in Beijing. Athletes worldwide worked hard to surpass themselves in the competitions to fight for their countries’ honor. The winter games competition events are well known to be different from the summer ones, mainly due to the competition environment. The extremely low temperature of the playing field brings certain challenges to the athletes and the sports equipment.

BetterPower (BPI) provided a series of low temperature batteries and backup power stations to ensure the normal power supply of sports equipment for the Winter Olympics. And the low temperature battery from BPI became a hit in the 2022 Olympic Winter Games.

What Is The Low Temperature Battery?

Since the electrochemical reactant activity of the battery decreases significantly at low temperatures, making the battery capacity drops significantly. Therefore, in extreme environments, special cold-resistant batteries are required. The low-temperature battery ensures battery performance by using polymer materials to reduce the effect of the environment on the conductive substances of the battery. These include polymer electrolytes or positive and negative electrodes, in addition to solid or gel polymer electrolytes.

The low temperature lithium-ion battery and low-temperature NiMH battery production require a high level of R&D technology and production processes from battery manufacturers. Since its establishment, BPI has been committed to developing, producing, and selling various environmentally friendly energy sources. This time, the two products of BPI provide a guarantee for the Winter Olympic Games, portable outdoor power supply BPS-500P and low temperature lithium-ion coin cell batteries.

Portable Power Station BPS-500P

BPS-500P is a portable power station composed of the high quality lithium-ion battery pack. BPS-500P is used as a backup power supply for Olympic sports equipment. The portable power station is quadrilateral in shape, with a large capacity of 130,000mAh and a high power of 481Wh, and it is a two-way fast charging mobile power developed by BPI.

What’s more, the portable power station BPS-500P has outstanding advantages, including large capacity, high power, fast charging. Its multi-port output can easily cope with 12 devices, and it can power an ordinary laptop for about 4.7 hours in full charge state, charge iPhone12 about 40 times, and power a drone for about 7 hours. It is worth mentioning that this portable power station is designed for simultaneous charging with dual ports and can be fully charged in as little as 3 hours. As a mobile charging station, BPS-500P can meet the various power needs of field camping, outdoor work, outdoor office, power outage emergency, and field trip.

Low Temperature Lithium-Ion Coin Cell Batteries

In addition to the security portable power station, the steel coin cell battery inside the intelligent intercom audio ski goggles of this Winter Olympic Games is also provided by BPI. The low temperature lithium-ion coin cell batteries belong to the feature series of BPI low temperature battery, a research project of Shenzhen Science and Technology Commission in 2018. It is suitable for outdoor extremely low temperatures, including the alpine ski intercom and other low-temperature applications.

Generally, the traditional lithium-ion battery works at -20℃ to 45℃, while the low temperature lithium-ion battery BPI can reach more than 90% discharge efficiency even in the low temperatures of -40℃, and still reach more than 60% discharge efficiency at -50℃. Under such extreme conditions, BPI’s low temperature battery series has a much higher discharge efficiency than other brands.

Advantages Of Using BPI Low Temperature Batteries

In the field of low temperature battery, BPI has never stopped innovating. BPI has a series of high-quality cryogenic batteries with different electrolytes, which can be made into different shapes to meet the requirements of different industries. Being able to provide products for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games and offering comprehensive solutions and technical support, BPI has an industry-leading position. The following are some advantages of using the BPI low temperature battery series.

1. It has various low temperature battery options, including the low temperature lithium-ion battery and the low-temperature NiMH battery.
