Description
The Prime HN Ternary 22,000mAh is the only cell of its capacity in the compact 72×170mm format, delivering 81.4Wh at just 294g. It matches larger cells in energy while being significantly lighter and smaller. With 2C charging (~30 minutes), 7C continuous, and 10C peak output, it’s optimized for endurance, using semi-solid construction and AI precision manufacturing for safety and reliability.
- The Only 22,000mAh Cell in the 72×170mm Footprint
No other 22,000mAh cell from any Volt or Prime series fits a 72×170mm bay. The Volt Ternary/LCO 22,000mAh is 87×187mm. The Volt HV Ternary 22,000mAh is 87×187mm. The Volt HV Li-Co 22,000mAh is 87×187mm. The Prime 22,000mAh is 72×170mm — the only one. For any drone platform built around the 72×170mm form factor that needs 22,000mAh of capacity, this is not one option among several. It is the only option. For platforms already running the Prime 16k or 17k in this footprint, the 22,000mAh delivers 37.5% and 29.4% more energy, respectively, without touching the frame bay.
- 280WH/KG — 81.4Wh at 294g, 109g Lighter Than the Equivalent Volt Cell
The High Nickel Ternary semi-solid cathode stores 81.4Wh at 280Wh/KG in 294g. The Volt Ternary/LCO 22,000mAh stores the same 81.4Wh — but in a heavier 403g cell at a larger 87×187mm footprint. The Prime 22,000mAh delivers identical energy, 109g lighter, in a significantly smaller form factor. Even against the lightest 22,000mAh Volt variant — the HV Li-Co at 363g and 87×187mm — the Prime 22,000mAh is 69g lighter and fits in a smaller bay. For UAVs where battery weight reduces payload capacity or endurance margin, the difference is not marginal.
- Last Cell in the 72×170mm Prime Group — Ceiling of the Higher-Rate Profile
The 22,000mAh is the third and final cell in the Prime 280WH/KG 72×170mm group. It is also the last cell in the family to run 2C charge and 7C continuous discharge. Every larger Prime 280Wh/KG cell — the 25,000mAh, 27,000mAh, 30,000mAh, and 40,000mAh — operates at 1C charge and 5C continuous, requiring larger footprints and slower charge cycles. For operators who need maximum capacity within the 72×170mm bay while retaining the 2C/7C rate profile, the 22,000mAh is the ceiling.
- 29.4% More Energy Than the 17,000mAh — Final 72×170mm Step-Up
Stepping up from the 17k to the 22,000mAh adds 18.5Wh of stored energy (+29.4%) and increases peak burst from 170A to 220A (+29.4%) for 69g of additional weight and 2.1mm of additional thickness — still within the same 72×170mm footprint. This is the last capacity step available before the Prime family moves to a larger footprint. For operators already running the 16,000mAh or 17,000mAh who need the most endurance the 72×170mm bay can deliver on this chemistry, the 22,000mAh is the definitive end point.
- Semi-Solid Construction — Structural and Safety Advantage
The Prime series uses advanced semi-solid electrolyte technology, reducing liquid electrolyte content compared to conventional LiPo construction. This provides lower risk of liquid leakage and fire under damage or abnormal operating conditions, greater mechanical stability under vibration and impact loads, and more consistent internal geometry over the cell’s service life. For mapping, logistics, emergency response, and safety-defence UAVs operating in demanding environments, the semi-solid construction adds a meaningful layer of operational reliability that no liquid-electrolyte cell in the 72×170mm footprint can match.
- 10C Peak — 220A, Built for Sustained Endurance
The Prime 22,000mAh delivers 220A peak burst and 154A continuous — rates calibrated for sustained endurance operations rather than the high-burst applications of the Volt series. The 10C peak at 22,000mAh provides sufficient instantaneous power for normal takeoff, cruise, and payload operations on commercial mapping, logistics, and emergency response platforms. For missions where duration is the primary performance metric, the 280WH/KG energy density advantage over every liquid-electrolyte alternative is the specification that matters most.
- 2C Charge — 44A Input, ~30 Min Full Charge
Standard 2C continuous charge delivers 44A input, fully charging the cell in approximately 30 minutes. This is the highest charge rate available in the Prime 280WH/KG family at this capacity and above — the 25,000mAh, 27,000mAh, 30,000mAh, and 40,000mAh all charge at 1C. Two cells in rotation at 2C sustain continuous field operations across extended deployment windows without interruption.
- AI Vision Stacking
Fully automated production line with AI-guided vision stacking ensures precise internal layer alignment and structural integrity across the 72×170mm footprint — maintaining consistent energy density performance and safety behaviour at the highest capacity point of the semi-solid 72×170mm group.
