CAP-XX Appoints Kessler Batteries as Supercapacitor Distributor for the Americas
Kessler chosen for large and experienced sales organization covering the Americas, and design synergy between CAP-XX supercaps and Kessler's 3V coin cell batteries for industrial electronics devices
Sydney, Australia - September 28, 2021 - CAP-XX Limited (LSE:CPX), the leading manufacturer of ultra-thin prismatic and high-power cylindrical supercapacitors, today appointed Kessler Batteries, a leading distributor of 3V lithium coin cell batteries for industrial electronic devices, as a CAP-XX full line distributor for the Americas. Engineers often use supercaps to deliver the burst power for high-power functions such as data capture and data transmission. With supercapacitors supporting batteries in this peak power role, engineers can both optimize battery life and minimize battery size in space-constrained electronics. CAP-XX chose Kessler Batteries for this design synergy between its supercaps and 3V lithium coin cell batteries, and for Kessler's large sales organization covering the Americas featuring experienced application engineers capable of providing deep design expertise.
In addition to 3V primary and rechargeable lithium coin cells, Kessler Batteries works with multiple battery chemistries, including lithium polymer, silver oxide and alkaline. These types of batteries work together with CAP-XX supercapacitors to power a variety of applications, including asset tracking, automotive, IoT, medical devices, security, sensors, smart meters, and wearables.
"Since 1979, Kessler has sold hundreds of millions of batteries," said Sharon Rossi, director of Kessler's industrial sales organization. "We are excited to partner with CAP-XX and bring supercapacitors to more industrial electronic designs across the Americas."
"We are expanding our Americas market coverage and distribution and Kessler provided the value add we needed," said Jeff Colton, EVP and GM at CAP-XX Americas. "Our products already complement each other to power devices in similar markets, and Kessler provides broad and experienced sales and logistical support across the Americas."
