Vanguard Expands Battery Lineup With Swappable Power Option

Briggs & Stratton's Vanguard Lithium-Ion 48V 1.5kWh* Commercial Battery (Si1.5) is now available for order. This announcement comes as the company also grows its Vanguard battery portfolio to include swappable (Si Series) and fixed (Fi Series) battery pack configurations to meet a wider range of application and equipment needs.

The latest in Vanguard battery technology, the Si1.5 Battery features an innovative, self-contained package with a handle on top for easy swapping between equipment — or equipment and charger — on the jobsite. Designed, engineered and assembled in the United States.

With safety and durability paramount in its design, the Si1.5 is built with a diecast aluminum casing that adds rigidity and reduces vibration and shock response from the pack. When facing a jobsite’s debris, moisture or extreme temperatures, users can confidently run the Si1.5 and expect a safe, powerful performance that will get the job done. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) looking to incorporate the Si1.5 into their machines will also benefit from the battery’s brand-agnostic, standard interface design that adds flexibility while minimizing integration costs.
