Modular Low-Voltage Power Platform
A 12 V-native DC power and backup platform for routers, cameras, gateways and single-board computers. Battery and mains share one low-voltage path, so when the power drops your devices keep running instead of rebooting.
NO-BREAK TRANSFER
153 Wh LiFePO4
4 PORTS · 16 OUTPUTS
Why it is not another mini UPS
A standard UPS lifts battery DC up to mains AC so your adapter can drop it straight back down again. We removed that round trip and put intelligence on every single output.
Ideal-diode ORing between external supply and battery. No firmware sits in the transfer path, so connected devices never lose their rail.
Battery and internal distribution stay in low-voltage DC. No internal inverter, no DC to AC to DC detour.
One system replaces a UPS, a power strip and a drawer full of mismatched wall adapters.
Different output modules connect to the same base platform over a CAN-FD bus, hot-pluggable and authenticated.
Voltage, current and power measured on every port. Each device can be monitored, protected and restarted on its own.
You rank your devices. Non-essential loads drop first so the critical ones stay up far longer during an outage.
Approved protected 12 V LiFePO4 packs from 7 to 12 Ah in a standard case size. The product outlives its battery.
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth LE and cloud together. Bluetooth keeps working during the exact event a UPS exists for.
The power path
Mains supply and battery meet at an ideal-diode ORing stage. Whichever source is higher feeds the bus, and the handover happens in the analogue domain. There is no detection delay, no relay click and no firmware decision to wait for.
Above it sits the managed layer, an eFuse holding the system inside a 4.98 A envelope, then four magnetic ports feeding intelligent modules over CAN-FD.
Expansion modules
Every module carries its own microcontroller, protection, metering and CAN-FD identity. Connect one and the base unit authenticates it cryptographically before a single watt is released.
Four individually controlled and metered USB-C outputs, fixed at 5 V and up to 3 A. No USB PD negotiation, which means no chance of a device seeing a voltage it should never get.
Four barrel-jack outputs, each configurable to 3, 5, 6, 9 or 12 V. One module retires a shelf of different wall adapters, and adjustable voltage is deliberately restricted to this connector type.
Blind-mate interface
Full capability set
Software and connectivity
Cloud, local Wi-Fi and direct Bluetooth LE run side by side. When a site loses mains power and the router goes with it, Bluetooth keeps you in contact with battery state, runtime and every output.

Development status
The platform is in research and development and is not on sale. We would rather be precise about what is already measured, what exists on paper and what is still ahead, so nothing on this page reads as a shipping product.
Fabricated boards tested at the full 10 A design current across three units, including 100 repeated power interruptions. This is hardware on a bench, not simulation.
Controller card, module electronics, CAN-FD firmware, mobile application and enclosure with thermal and manufacturing design are under active development. Figures here are design targets.
Design verification, EMC pre-compliance, a pilot build with a qualified contract manufacturer and the accredited certification dossier are planned and not yet completed. No product carries certification marks today.
Electronike
The platform is in its research and development phase, working toward manufacturing readiness with a production-intent BOM, design for manufacture, second sourcing, contract manufacturer qualification and a pilot build. Talk to us about pilot deployments, integration, distribution or early evaluation units.
