Patent covers a breakthrough approach to battery charge balancing technology to optimize performance, extend battery life, and reduce downtime.
Flux Power Holdings, Inc. has announced it has been awarded another patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent covers a breakthrough approach to battery charge balancing centered on a technology called Predictive Quantum Balancing, designed to optimize performance, extend battery life, and reduce operational downtime in mission-critical applications.
The newly patented system advances Flux Power’s proprietary Battery Management System (BMS) by introducing an intelligent, data-driven method of managing charge distribution at the cell level, learning from past behavior to guide future performance. Rather than relying solely on reactive balancing during charge cycles, the system stores imbalance patterns in memory and assigns permanent discharge durations to overperforming cells, a proactive approach that improves stability and long-term efficiency.
“Predictive Quantum Balancing represents a leap forward in battery intelligence,” said Paulus Geantil, Chief Technology Officer of Flux Power. “We’ve moved beyond just monitoring batteries; we’re now training them to self-correct based on experience.”
How It Works: Data-Driven Balance, Delivered Automatically
Predictive Quantum Balancing addresses a core challenge in lithium-ion systems: maintaining 100% of the total pack capacity by balancing the battery 24/7. Flux Power’s system continuously monitors cell behavior, logs imbalance trends in a histogram, and when long-term discrepancies are detected, assigns custom “bleed-off” durations to specific cells during each charge cycle.
Key Benefits:
- Extended battery life to lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
- Faster, smarter charging to increase operational efficiencies
- Predictive maintenance capabilities for more proactive fleet management
- Fleet performance optimization for enhanced productivity and strategic business insights
“This patent reflects our commitment to innovation where it matters most: real-world uptime, battery longevity, and total cost of ownership for our customers,” said Mark Barmettler, VP of Engineering at Flux Power. “This type of intelligence makes a measurable difference for our partners in material handling, GSE, and logistics operations where every minute counts.”
