High Power Design: The StartStick’s cableless design, combined with highly conductive interconnects and a patent-pending power electronics design, enables it to deliver over 30% more power than other lithium batteries. This innovative approach allows the StartStick’s compact form factor to achieve a higher power output than significantly larger and heavier lithium batteries.

Integrated Auto-Charger: StartStick’s smart battery management system includes redundant temperature sensing and an integrated smart charger that continuously monitors over twenty-five different parameters to determine if it is safe to charge. This also allows the StartStick to charge on-board, automatically sensing when a generator/alternator is running before charging starts.

Auto-Shut Off: The StartStick actively monitors itself and will shut down if it exceeds a specified level of time without being used or charged, ensuring peace of mind.

Smart is Safe: At the heart of the StartStick is an electronic battery management system unlike any other. Running over 12K lines of code, its fully integrated charger, battery monitor, data logger, display, and high-speed controller sense and control all aspects of the battery chemistry and external environment to keep the battery safe in all conditions, contributing to our perfect safety record.

Designed to Last: With internal components, a hardened case, and software designed to deliver 10 years of service or 3k-5k engine starts, StartStick ensures longevity. Its software notifies users if they exceed any design limit, optimizing performance over its lifetime. If an issue arises, all components are fully serviceable and can be overhauled by the factory or one of our certified repair centers.
