How NeverDown Works

Overview // Shelter power demands are served by a bank of batteries, replenished by engine-driven AC generator, engine-driven DC alternator, and/or shore power. An intelligent Battery Management System (BMS) keeps cells topped off. Three configurations meet nearly any output and form factor needs — 2, 4, or 8-hour silent runtimes.*

Available Power // NeverDown gives up to 8 hours of continuous Mission-Critical Power (HVAC, lights, and NTC) plus 6kW Customer-Specified Power (optional equipment). It can provide 20kW continuously until depletion, with 25.5kW surges for up to 30 minutes.*¹

Energy Storage // NeverDown’s USA-manufactured lithium iron phosphate (LiFePo4) batteries are coupled with a BMS that monitors each cell for safety. Scale battery packs to your runtime, and inverters to your max load. Customize discharge/recharge profiles to save fuel, cut emissions, and provide silent operations (on-demand or scheduled).

System Management // With Nomad Total Command (NTC) software, you’ll monitor, control, and automate NeverDown with a touch. Plus, NTC gives a unified operating picture and complete command of other critical systems. Deploy from any device, optimize connectivity on the fly, and set up NIST-compliant authentication and logging.

* Figures are for the TCV-Max product line. Custom applications (runtimes, loads, etc.) are available on any Nomad product.

¹ Numbers calculated at a power factor of 1.0, at sea level, with an ambient temperature of 77°F and a 100% charge. Performance will degrade over time (~2700 cycles reducing batteries to ~80% of original capacity) and with use in extreme conditions.

Performance Specifics

With Customer-Specified Power of ~6kW (above standard Mission-Critical Power), one hour of vehicle runtime yields one hour of battery runtime. Battery packs can scale up or down, impacting runtime while maintaining that 1:1 parity at ~6kW.* This stable architecture means NeverDown can adapt to almost any use case, serving your mission today… and into the future.

Note: Charge starts at ~30% battery capacity and stops at ~90%. These set points can be adjusted to meet performance requirements.
