Batteries need a dedicated space. We’re developing the protection to go with it.

A power tool battery on the workbench, an RC battery beside the charger and a spare somewhere in between. Sound familiar? Rechargeable batteries have become part of everyday life. Giving their storage and charging a dedicated space deserves just as much attention.

That is where SmoliTec comes in. With the EasySafeBox, we are developing an aluminium safety enclosure for battery storage, supervised charging and quarantine. Our aim is to combine a carefully designed protective construction with practical everyday handling.

Aluminium outside. Extover® inside.

The EasySafeBox combines a double-walled aluminium housing with a protective construction incorporating Extover®. This non-combustible mineral granulate, made from recycled glass, can absorb heat and form an insulating layer when sufficient coverage is provided. Its performance depends on factors including quantity, arrangement and the specific fire load.

Approximately 26 litres of internal space accommodate different applications. The enclosure is intended for LiPo, lithium-ion and LiFePO4 batteries used in RC models, power tools and e-mobility. Suitable battery types and quantities depend on the specific configuration and operating instructions.

Designed in the Allgäu. Manufactured in Augsburg and Memmingen.

SmoliTec is led by Simon Müller and Oliver Völk. We develop our solutions in Germany’s Allgäu region. Metal fabrication takes place in Augsburg, with final assembly and filling in Memmingen.

Keeping these activities close together helps us feed practical experience from assembly and testing directly into further development. Our questions are hands-on: How should batteries be arranged? How can handling remain straightforward? And what protective construction suits the intended application?

Development continues – with a clear account of progress.

The EasySafeBox is undergoing further development. This includes filter design and planned independent fire and system testing. We distinguish between the properties of the materials used and verification of the complete enclosure.

Suitable chargers and supervised charging remain essential when using a safety enclosure. Damaged or suspect batteries must not be charged.

Which batteries need a dedicated space at your premises?

Whether you work with power tools, RC models or other battery-powered equipment, we welcome your requirements. Together, we can identify what suits your batteries, location and working procedures.
