What we are going to be shown is how effective management of battery resources can extend their life and ensure that they deliver optimum performance, all the time. A bit of TLC (tender loving care) works wonders!

The origins of the project date back a number of years ago, when the need to tackle random use of batteries was recognised. When an electric counterbalance lift truck comes to the end of the assembly line, it will need a battery for two reasons.
