Back to all

At ENEPAQ, we don’t just claim our battery modules are built for extreme conditions—we prove its’ safety.

Recently, one of our clients shared an extraordinary homemade video: a real-world safety test in which ENEPAQ battery module was shot with a 12-gauge shotgun. While we do not officially endorse this type of testing, the results were a powerful testament to the strength, reliability, and engineering behind our modular battery systems.

While ENEPAQ modules undergo rigorous lab testing for compliance with international safety and durability standards, this unofficial “field test” showed just how far our modules can go. A direct hit from a 12-gauge shotgun revealed minimal damage to critical components—an impressive demonstration of the structural integrity and resilience of our battery housing.

We’re proud to see our products tested not only in certified labs but also in real-world environments that go beyond the expected.

 

Designed for safety under pressure

Our battery modules are more than just robust—they’re smart.

Key safety and design features include:

  • Strategic Air Gaps
    Internal air gaps within the housing ensure efficient thermal management by allowing natural airflow to dissipate heat. This maintains safe operating temperatures and extends the life of the cells.
  • JST 2-Pin XH Connectors
    Each module includes a JST 2-pin XH connector, enabling users to connect a custom device that can monitor temperature data and feed it directly into a Battery Management System (BMS).
  • Fuse Control System
    Our built-in Fuse Control protects individual cells from overload, reducing the risk of short circuits or fire, even under extreme conditions like ballistic impact.

 

Reliable even in the harshest environments

ENEPAQ modules are globally recognized for their exceptional quality, safety, and engineering excellence. Designed by experts, our modular battery systems combine high-capacity lithium cells, advanced safety features, and a rugged build that’s tailored for both commercial and industrial use. Whether in civil engineering, aerospace, military, or defense, our systems are engineered to perform reliably—even in the harshest environments.

From power tools and drones to unmanned vehicles and mobile energy storage, ENEPAQ modules deliver where others fail.

Ready for any mission

With industry certifications and a design built to withstand shocks, vibration, extreme temperatures, and now—apparently—shotgun blasts, ENEPAQ modules are trusted in industries where failure is not an option.

Whether you’re building a mobile energy solution, a defense system, or a high-performance industrial device, ENEPAQ modular batteries offer the reliability, safety, and adaptability you need.
