ACL Thunder ORC batteries

Opportunity Rapid Charge (ORC) traction batteries allows continuous operations covering up to two work-shifts with a single ORC battery.

ORC battery cells may be charged intermittently for short periods of time (15 to 60 minutes) during the operating shifts at a high current (up to 0,3C amps), followed by a complete recharge in the third shift.

ORC batteries are lead-acid based and they compete with the lithium-Ion alternatives.
