E Uiga ia Engo Fale Puipui Ma'a Eletise

Book Text: O Engo o se fale puipui ma'a eletise e mafai ona faaputuputu, na fuafuaina mo oloa la ma isi faaaogaga o le teuina o malosiaga. O le atigi e faia i le alumini faatasi ma se faavaa u'amea, papa palasitika ma le fa'apuipui pulu. O pito tuusa'o ua tipiina ma tulimanu faalulu e fausia ai se ala natia mo uaea, ina ia tumau ai le mamā o le nofoaiga o uaea i itu uma e lua, faalava ma faatū. O puipui faaloaloa i luga ma lalo e ufiufi ai uaea ma fesoasoani i le faaputuputuina saogalemu, ae o loo tuu ai avanoa mo le fesootaiga o pito eletise (terminals). O vaega e tolu o le fa'apuipui e faatumauina ai le vevela galueaga mautu o le ma'a eletise.

Uiga Fa'apitoa
The straightforward geometric form of the enclosure is interrupted only by chamfered vertical edges and recessed corners. These details are part of a hidden cabling solution, especially useful within large battery sets, enabling clean and minimally noticeable wiring in any direction, both horizontally and vertically. Extended walls on the top and bottom of the housing keep the cables covered and allow safe stacking while giving enough room to connect the terminals between the stacked pieces.
Fua & Fa'apipi'i
30Ah unit W: 205mm, D: 90mm, H: 215mm; 60Ah unit W: 220mm, D: 120mm, H: 380mm; 100Ah unit W: 248mm, D: 120mm, H: 556mm.

Lu'itau o le Mamanu
The battery is to be used in retrofit solar equipment, as an individual product, inside solutions such as power walls, electric vehicles, yachts, etc. That required smart usage of available space. Thermal and water insulation were given careful attention. Three layers of insulation, including ceramic coating, keep the battery pack at a constant temperature and operational between minus twenty and plus eighty degrees Celsius. The rubber used for insulation of the top and bottom of the enclosure gives enough flexibility to compensate for an uneven floor but does not allow capsizing.
Su'esu'ega
A simple production process in any given volume, different sizes of battery packs used, and low starting cost suggested aluminum for the housing. That also planted the idea to use as little manual operation as possible, calling for a minimal but characteristic design that could be produced by CNC cutting and bending. The proportions of the few visible details were refined according to the dimensions of cables, contacts, and connectors, which needed to fit perfectly in the space between the neighboring housings.
Fa'aosofia
The project started with the idea to produce battery casings for a range of EnGo Planet's solar products. After analysis of a typical installation process and everyday usage scenarios, inspiration was found in pure functionality and minimal aesthetic expression. Easy stacking, optimal space usage, and intelligent cable management were the main focus of the design.
Umi o le Poloketi
The project lasted several weeks and took place in USA and Europe.
Fa'agasologa o Galuega
A combination of design details and flexible materials used on the top and bottom of the housing keep the wiring neat and give a clean look to any battery set. The bottom rubber surface features two openings that match the position of the terminals on the unit placed below. The side openings allow lifting the case using a strap, which makes the stacking of heavier versions of the battery easier. The operation and capacity of the unit can be monitored by a smartphone over Bluetooth. The product is available with an optional voltmeter, switch, and USB inlets for charging mobile devices.
