Perkons Energy Custom Battery Packs — European Supply

Custom lithium-ion battery packs for drones, UGVs, USVs and industrial systems, engineered and manufactured in Latvia. High-power packs for heavy lift, high-energy-density packs for endurance, and standard off-the-shelf solutions for prototyping. Supplied across Europe by A-Trix Group.

Made in the EU, shipped from the EU. Lithium batteries are classified as dangerous goods — the single hardest component to import. Sourcing from Latvia through our Estonian warehouse removes customs, air-freight restrictions and the paperwork that comes with them.

Three types of battery pack

Power and endurance pull in opposite directions. A cell chemistry optimised for high discharge current cannot also hold maximum energy per gram. Choosing the right side of that trade-off is the first decision.

TypeOptimised forTypical platform
High powerHigh discharge current, sustained loadHeavy-lift multirotor, agricultural spraying drones, robotics with high peak draw
High energy densityMaximum runtime per kilogramLong-endurance surveillance UAVs, long-range UGVs, fixed-wing and VTOL
Standard solutionsFast availability, no development cyclePrototyping, evaluation, standard voltage and capacity requirements

If you are not sure which side your platform sits on, the deciding question is usually simple: does the mission fail because you ran out of thrust, or because you ran out of time in the air?

What a custom pack lets you change

  • Voltage and cell configuration — matched to your ESCs and motor KV rather than forcing a compromise
  • Capacity — sized to the mission, not to what happens to be in stock
  • Form factor — built to the space your airframe actually has, including awkward shapes
  • Connectors — your standard, on both power and data
  • Battery management system — smart BMS with monitoring, balancing and protection, integrated with your platform
  • Modular architecture — for platforms that need to scale capacity without a redesign

Every pack is tested for cell balance, protection behaviour and durability, with BMS validation before it ships.

Why battery sourcing is different

Every other component on your bill of materials can be air-freighted without much thought. Lithium cells cannot.

Lithium batteries are regulated as dangerous goods. Air transport is restricted by state of charge and packaging, UN 38.3 test documentation is required, and shipments need declarations that many suppliers handle badly or not at all. Importing from outside the EU adds customs clearance to that — and a battery held at a border is a project held at a border.

Perkons manufactures in Latvia and handles regulation-compliant logistics as part of the process. We hold and ship from Estonia. Both inside the EU, both inside the customs union — no clearance, no import duty, no six-week uncertainty.

For programmes with European content requirements, the packs are manufactured in the EU, which matters increasingly in defence and public-sector procurement.

What we need to quote your pack

Send what you have and we will tell you what is missing. The more of this we get up front, the faster the quote.

By application

Heavy-lift and agricultural drones

Spraying and cargo platforms draw enormous current in short bursts and cycle their batteries hard. High-power packs with cells rated for sustained discharge, and a BMS that survives the duty cycle rather than degrading through the season.

Long-endurance surveillance and inspection

Here every gram of battery competes with every gram of payload. High-energy-density packs maximise runtime per kilogram, which on a fixed-wing or VTOL platform translates directly into area covered per sortie.

Ground and surface robotics

UGV and USV platforms have different constraints from aircraft — usually more space, but harsher vibration, wider temperature range and longer duty cycles. Custom form factors and modular packs let you use the space you have.

Prototyping and evaluation

Standard solutions exist for exactly this: proven configurations available without a development cycle, so you can fly the airframe before committing to a custom pack design.

Why buy Perkons through A-Trix Group

Batteries in the context of the whole aircraft. A battery specification only makes sense alongside the motors, ESCs and autopilot it feeds. We supply all of it — T-MOTOR propulsion, CubePilot autopilots, Drotek GNSS, TOPOTEK payloads — so the pack is specified against the actual power budget, not in isolation.

Inside the EU customs union. Manufactured in Latvia, held and shipped from Tallinn. For dangerous goods this is not a minor convenience — it removes the hardest part of battery logistics.

Engineering support. Our team includes developers from Riga Technical University, working with our founder — a Senior Member of IEEE, lecturer at Riga Technical University, and author of registered patents in AI and unmanned systems. We can work through your power budget with you before anything is quoted.

B2B terms that work for procurement. Business customers with a valid EU VAT number registered outside Estonia are invoiced at 0% VAT under the reverse charge mechanism. We issue formal quotations and proforma invoices and accept purchase orders.

About Perkons Energy

Perkons Energy designs and manufactures custom lithium-ion and lithium-polymer battery packs in Latvia, covering the full cycle from R&D through manufacturing to regulation-compliant logistics. The company builds for drones, robotics and industrial systems, and works with customers in agriculture, defence, inspection and automation.

Production runs from prototype quantities through small and mid-series, with modular battery systems and smart BMS integration for platforms that need to scale.

Frequently asked questions

Do you supply custom packs or only standard products?

Both. Standard solutions are available for prototyping and common requirements; custom packs are engineered to your voltage, capacity, form factor, connectors and BMS requirements.

What is the minimum quantity for a custom pack?

Development runs from prototype quantities upward. Tell us the quantity you need and the timeline, and we will confirm what is viable.

Can you ship lithium batteries internationally?

Yes. Lithium batteries are dangerous goods and require compliant packaging, documentation and state-of-charge limits. Within the EU there is no customs border, which makes European delivery straightforward. For destinations outside the EU, tell us where and we will confirm the route and lead time before you order.

High power or high energy density — which do I need?

High power if your platform draws large sustained or peak currents — heavy lift, spraying, high-torque robotics. High energy density if the constraint is flight time or range. Send your current draw and required runtime and we will tell you which side your platform sits on.

Are these packs manufactured in the EU?

Yes. Perkons Energy designs and manufactures in Latvia, and we ship from Estonia. Relevant for programmes with European content or supply chain requirements.

Can I buy without VAT?

Yes. Business customers with a valid EU VAT number registered outside Estonia are invoiced at 0% VAT under the reverse charge mechanism.
