AmpBox is the first gel battery in the industry capable of providing power for an impressive range of 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours, revolutionising the way consumers experience uninterrupted power supply—especially in a country like India, where power cuts are still a challenge.

Luminous Power Technologies, a leading provider of innovative energy solutions in India, has introduced its latest product innovation in energy storage solutions, AmpBox. AmpBox is the first gel battery in the industry capable of providing power for an impressive range of 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours, revolutionising the way consumers experience uninterrupted power supply—especially in a country like India, where power cuts are still a challenge.

In India, power outages can significantly disrupt daily life, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas where electricity supply remains inconsistent. The need for reliable backup power solutions has become critical in these regions. According to recent reports, many states experience frequent power cuts lasting from a few hours to even days, which can affect everything from households to small businesses.

Gel batteries offer several advantages that enhance safety and longevity. Their gel-like electrolyte minimises the risk of leakage and corrosion, making them a safer and more stable option compared to traditional flooded lead-acid batteries. Additionally, gel batteries have lower self-discharge rates and superior cycling capabilities, resulting in a significantly longer lifespan and greater value over time. They are also maintenance-free, allowing users to enjoy convenience and peace of mind without the hassle of regular checks or electrolyte additions. Moreover, gel technology excels in a wide range of temperatures, ensuring reliable performance even in extreme heat or cold.

The AmpBox introduces tailored power solutions that empower consumers to choose a battery based on their specific needs during outages. Whether requiring light for three hours during a brief power cut or extended usage for up to six hours, users can select options that align with their lifestyle. With the AmpBox, consumers pay only for the backup duration they need, eliminating the need to over-invest in unnecessary storage capacity. This cost-effective approach is ideal for households and businesses that experience outages of varying lengths.

Additionally, quantifying energy storage in hours simplifies the purchasing decision, allowing consumers to easily understand how long their devices can run—information that is often more relevant than complex technical specifications. The AmpBox also enhances efficiency by catering to intermittent power requirements common in home and small business settings, ensuring that consumers invest in a solution that perfectly matches their usage patterns without overpaying for excess storage they may never use.

The AmpBox boasts several key features that enhance its functionality and appeal. First, it offers versatile power duration options of 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours, providing users with the convenience and flexibility to choose according to their needs. The innovative gel technology minimises leakage and enhances safety while ensuring a longer lifespan compared to traditional batteries.

Additionally, the AmpBox is an eco-friendly solution, promoting energy efficiency and helping to reduce carbon footprints. Its user-friendly design is lightweight, compact, and easy to install, making it suitable for both residential and commercial applications. Lastly, the AmpBox delivers reliable performance in a wide range of conditions, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures from -15°C to 50°C, making it an ideal choice for various climatic environments.

With the introduction of the AmpBox, Luminous Power Technologies is setting a new benchmark in the energy storage industry. This innovation directly addresses the urgent requirements of Indian consumers seeking reliable and versatile power solutions, making it a vital asset for improving energy management in areas frequently impacted by power cuts.
