True Blue Power had a number of things to talk about at NBAA including the TSO certification of the company's entire Gen5 main ship battery family. The TB20 (20 amp-hour), TB30 (30 amp-hour) and TB40 (40 amp-hour) received an impressive C179b CLASS A-4B rating, meeting the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) latest and highest level of lithium battery requirements.
The newly-certified True Blue Power Gen5 lithium-ion battery family was on display at the 2019 the National Business Aviation Association Convention and Exhibition in Las Vegas Nevada.
The company’s newest ultra-fast charger, the TA360 Series USB-PD Charging Port was also on display at NBAA. Designed to power new and future electronic devices, the high-speed charging ports use USB Power Delivery (PD) technology to provide 60 watts of power per port.
Aero-News Network’s Jim Campbell spoke with True Blue Power’s Director, Erik Ritzman and the company’s president and CEO, Todd Winter, at NBAA 2019 to catch up on all the latest advancements in battery and charging technology.
