Batteries help detect water leaks to stop commercial property damage
[fa icon="calendar"] Dec 10, 2025 9:35:55 AM | posted in Safety and security industry insight
A recent article in Environmental Protection magazine reports that ‘Internal water leaks are the number one cause of property damage in commercial buildings, surpassing fire, theft, and weather-related events combined’ and that ‘Water-damage deductibles of $100,000 to $200,000 are now common’. It is therefore essential to have reliably powered smart meters and water leak detectors that continuously look for signs of a leak.
A year of CE marking batteries
[fa icon="calendar"] Nov 19, 2025 1:21:13 PM | posted in Products & Services
The introduction of mandatory CE marking for batteries in August 2024 marked a major shift for manufacturing industries. This was the first serious attempt to bring all types of batteries, including portable, industrial, electric vehicle (EV) and light means of transport (LMT) under a single framework. Over a year on, UK battery manufacturer Accutronics Ltd (an Ultralife company) reflects on what’s changed and how the industry has responded.

Happy 250th Birthday to the U.S. Navy
[fa icon="calendar"] Oct 13, 2025 1:47:35 PM | posted in Military industry insight
13th October 2025 marks 250 years since the founding of the U.S. Navy. Over that time, there has been a vast amount of technological change, such as the transition from hand-cranked submarines to complex underwater vehicles, from bulky computer servers to easily-transportable and wearable ones, and from flag signals to advanced radio communications. In the USA, Ultralife is proud to manufacture portable power solutions and communications systems that serve the modern U.S. Navy's need for underwater vehicles, edge computing and advanced radio communication.
Preparing for updates to the EU Battery Regulation

As the spotlight increases on battery sustainability, regulatory changes are in force with new rules under the EU Battery Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1542). All battery manufacturers, including ourselves at Accutronics Ltd (an Ultralife company), must comply when placing their products on the EU market. With changes ongoing, device and battery manufacturers should familiarise themselves with the new rules.
Wearables can help Americans learn the impact of diet on their health, says RFK Jr.
[fa icon="calendar"] Jul 1, 2025 12:27:25 PM | posted in Medical industry insight
U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says wearables can help Americans learn the impact of diet on their health, including "what food is doing to their glucose levels". When most people think of wearables, they think of smartwatches. However, smartwatches cannot directly measure glucose levels, so what devices can be used and how can the manufacturers integrate the optimum battery to keep these devices practical to use whilst reliably transmitting the data?
