Small size and high energy density
Locks, speakers and alarms have limited internal space, so the pack has to be compact while meeting standby and working capacity. We design within your size limit.
Smart home battery packs: locks, speakers and alarms
Smart locks, video doorbells and alarms stand by year round, yet must deliver reliably at the critical moment. Small size, low self-discharge and long standby are the three basics.
Requirements
What this application demands of the pack
These are the electrical and mechanical points that matter in this application.
Low self-discharge and long standby
Most devices stand by for long periods with few charging opportunities, so low self-discharge directly shapes the user experience. We assess from both the chemistry and the BMS strategy.
Reliable output and wide temperature
Key actions such as alarms and unlocking must fire reliably when needed, while coping with indoor and outdoor temperature swings.

Checklist
What we need from you
Give us these and while meeting your performance needs we pick the most cost-effective option for you.
| Item | What to tell us |
|---|---|
| Device type and function | The exact device — lock / doorbell / speaker / alarm / curtain |
| Battery bay dimensions | Length, width, height and acceptable thickness of the bay |
| Standby and working current | Standby current, working current and peak current |
| Operating environment | Indoor or outdoor, and the temperature range |
| Interface and connection | Connector model or solder tab form |
| Capacity & discharge | Built from 0.1 Ah to 600 Ah to your requirement — common levels such as 10 Ah, 20 Ah, 50 Ah, 100 Ah and 200 Ah are all confirmed per model; continuous and peak rates are matched to the duty cycle |
The above describes the general matching logic only. The final selection is made by us — your requirements come first, and we work to reduce your cost as far as safety allows.
FAQ
Questions about smart home packs
Which form factors are available for smart home devices?
Two: pouch and cylindrical. Pouch suits slim or irregular spaces such as locks and doorbells; cylindrical has an edge in structural consistency. The choice follows your battery bay.
How long will the battery last?
It depends on your energy budget and actual operating conditions. We use a long-life design (actual life depends on the operating conditions) plus a low self-discharge approach. Provide the standby and working current and we will assess capacity against them.
Will it still work at low temperature?
Tell us your minimum operating temperature and the actions required in the cold, and we will assess from the chemistry direction to match your operating conditions.
How is certification handled?
We hold 17 certifications and reports including CE, IEC 62133, UL 2054, RoHS and REACH. Mature models come with existing certificates, provided directly; newly customised models are checked item by item against your target market and specifications. New certifications are handled end to end by our team, with testing costs and timelines set out in the proposal for your confirmation before anything starts.
