Both products feature custom algorithms to support standard military 6T, Group 31, and 4D/8D battery sizes; support for flooded, gel or AGM battery types; field-replaceable cables; and durable design to withstand harsh environmental/field conditions.

The new products will be distributed via American Business Development Group (ABDG). ABDG, headquartered in Arlington, Va., is the largest business development firm in the U.S. specializing in re-equipping and modernization of the U.S. military and Department of Homeland Security.
