Dragonfly Energy Secures Patent for Wakespeed® Charge Control Technology
Strengthens Company’s Intellectual Property and Reinforces Leadership in Advanced Power Systems
- Secures new U.S. patent protecting Wakespeed® Charge Control technology for high-power vehicle-to-trailer charging
- Reinforces the competitive position of Dragonfly Energy’s intellectual property portfolio of ~100 filed, pending, or granted patents
- Supports OEM adoption by enabling safe, reliable integration of batteries, alternators, and charging systems
- Advances strategic shift beyond batteries into full power system solutions across multiple industries
RENO, Nev., Sept. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (Nasdaq: DFLI) (“Dragonfly Energy” or the “Company”), an industry leader in energy storage and maker of Battle Born Batteries®, today announced it has secured U.S. Patent No. 12,403,782 for its Wakespeed® Charge Control technology. The newly issued patent addresses the transfer of power from a towing vehicle to a trailer for the purpose of charging onboard batteries — an innovation that expands the Company’s intellectual property portfolio and bolsters its position in advanced power systems.
Historically, vehicle-to-trailer charging has been limited to a few hundred watts through standard 12V connectors, insufficient for replenishing larger modern lithium battery systems. Dragonfly Energy’s patented Wakespeed Charge Control technology scales this capability to kilowatt levels at higher voltages (such as 48V and beyond), while incorporating safety features that prevent electrical arcs, protect equipment, and ensure reliable operation during connection, disconnection, or unexpected interruptions.
“We believe this patent reinforces our competitive position by protecting technology that enables safe, efficient integration of batteries, alternators, and charging systems,” said Dr. Denis Phares, chief executive officer of Dragonfly Energy. “It highlights how we are expanding from batteries into full power system solutions across multiple industries.”
The patent builds on Dragonfly Energy’s expertise in system-level integration by ensuring high-power transfer occurs safely and reliably across power system components.
With approximately 100 patents filed, pending, or granted, Dragonfly Energy continues to expand its intellectual property portfolio, reinforcing its competitive advantage and creating opportunities for technology adoption across OEM platforms.
