Dear Community,

Currently I’m developing a concept to found a company, based on the development of smart boxes, used for the management of special content.

The boxes will contain innovative Inlays to guarantee a perfect handling und a safe transportation.

In addition sensor systems like thermostats and voltage indicators are monitoring the content via app or touch screen.

As a RC-Flyer I knew the disadvantages of LiPo´s (beside the great power density):

1. fire protection at the storage process
2. decrease of power at low temperatures
3. safe charging only possible with a present person
4. only store with storing-potential for long ages

So the idea is to develop a case, which is able to bring the lipo to operating temperature, charge it and bring it back to storage temperature, after using it.

The box is fire protected with a gas-regulator to prevent high pressures. The inlay gives a great handling with XT/JST-Plugs in it and special fixations.

In addition the box will contain a charge controller with relays to charge all the lipos in it separately. A gel-accu will serve the charge controller with power.

I would like to, what you think about it? Until now I can´t find a box, which contains fire protection, thermostat, charge controller, special lipo-Inlay and monitoring.

How do you manage your lipos?

Until know I use a metal-box outside, without storage-potential and preheating.

1. Do you think to box is useful and perhaps you will buy one?
2. What would you like to pay for it? First ratings show a price of 400 Dollars, dependent on the box-size.
3. Are there helpful suggestions for the further functional range? 
4. Do you have special content to manage in a transportation box?

The customer will be able to choose the features from different modules and also customize his own inlay.

Many thanks for all evaluations and suggestions, praise our great hobby.
