Midac is based in Soave Italy near Verona, 2 hours from our Masate Plant.

Service of the Midac battery is through the Midac Aftermarket system in Europe.

A Midac Battery is warranted for 5 years/10,000 hours, recovery of the warranty and part replacement will be through Midac.

It depends on the issue. Basic diagnosis and connection repairs can be done. There is no expectation that dealers will fix major problems, which require opening the battery. Midac will support in this case.

Battery support will be available directly from Midac.

Yes, competitive sizes are available.

External chargers are available, with low, standard and fast charging rates, matched to the battery. On-board chargers are not available at this point: the higher current draw of the chargers makes rapid connection to the mains supply less practical.

A Li-ion battery requires a carefully designed charging current profile and for this reason we offer matched chargers and warrant the battery for 5 years only when used with the matched charger. The battery is designed to only accept charge from a suitable charger, and will self-protect when unsuitable chargers are connected. Approval of existing chargers when adapted for Li-ion use may be possible.

With rapid chargers this may sometimes be necessary. The power requirements will be quoted in our materials for each charger. Overall power requirements do require some planning when larger fleets of rapid charged trucks are being considered.

The recharge will be approximately linear. It will take on energy at approximately the same rate.

The Midac battery has life expectation of 3750+ cycles at 80% DOD, lead-acid is often quoted at 1200-1500 cycles.

The Lithium-ion Battery Calculator tool is suitable for each truck equipped with Li-ion battery. The tool checks the suitability of the Li-ion battery and charger in the application and provides an estimation of the costs and Return on Investment (ROI) in years. The tool will be available from October 2017.
