The intelligent battery management system takes the problem of managing large fleets of portable radio batteries. Each battery contains a chip that talks to the battery charger which communicates with the local computer to collect the data. The local computer communicates through the internet cloud to the main computer station which allows the intelligent battery management system to know the condition of each battery in the fleet. This significantly reduces the problems with portable radios by knowing when batteries are degrading so that they can be replaced before they impact the integrity of the radio fleet. Battery issues are the single largest problem in portable radio fleets, so this tool allows proper management to increase productivity and reliability.
