Outdoor Lithium-ion Battery Stores

Collection: Outdoor Lithium-ion Battery Stores

The outdoor storage of lithium-ion batteries poses many challenges for workplaces who rely on these efficient energy sources. From heat and sunlight affecting the safety of the battery to incompatible substances and the unpredictability of climatic conditions, it’s vital that cells are stored in a way that minimises the risk of lithium-ion battery fires, impact damage and flammable electrolyte leaks.

Safe Outdoor Storage for Lithium-ion Batteries

To create the safest possible workplace, our inhouse team at Storemasta have developed Outdoor Battery Stores that come equipped with a range of standard features. 

These Li-ion engineering controls were designed to reduce the risk of batteries igniting in the harsh outdoor environment, as well as provide indicators and alarms to alert staff to any fire hazards. Outdoor Battery Stores come with 6 heavy duty, weatherproof charging outlets and IP 66 rated plugs to ensure safe battery charging.
