Introduction
Smart safety helmets are transforming workplace protection by integrating GPS positioning, wireless communication,
environmental monitoring, and emergency alert systems. To support these advanced features,
a reliable and compact power source is essential.
Among various options, lithium polymer (LiPo) batteries have become the preferred choice for intelligent helmets
due to their lightweight structure, flexible form factor, and high energy density.
Why Choose Lithium Polymer Batteries for Smart Helmets?
- Lightweight & Slim Design: LiPo batteries integrate seamlessly into helmet shells without adding bulk.
- High Energy Density: Provides stable power for GPS modules, communication radios, cameras, and IoT sensors.
- Rechargeable Battery Pack: Supports daily use and reduces operating costs.
- Durability & Safety: Built-in protection circuits help prevent overcharge, over-discharge, and short circuits.
- Customizable: Battery shape and capacity can be tailored to different helmet designs.
For slim helmet structures, PKNERGY offers
custom lithium polymer battery
solutions optimized for wearable safety equipment.
