The Opportunity
Empower Every Device Category
Battery Life Has Been Holding Back
For decades, engineers have designed around a single constraint: eventually, someone has to reach the device and change the battery. That constraint has quietly capped where sensors can be placed, how small platforms can get, and how long infrastructure can run unattended. DKS doesn't build a better battery — it replaces the battery with a power architecture that doesn't run out. What that unlocks isn't a longer-lasting version of today's devices. It's the device categories that were never viable in the first place.
Decades, Not Seasons
Maintenance-Free Operating Life measured against the lifespan of the asset it powers — not the lifespan of a battery.
Zero Touch Points
No battery swaps means no truck rolls, no personnel exposure, and no maintenance windows in denied, contested, or inaccessible terrain.
Every Environment
Deep-sea pressure, orbital radiation, arctic cold, desert heat — one architecture, not a different battery chemistry for every use case.
One Architecture
From coin-cell to integrated system, the same power layer scales to the device — not the other way around.
This is the layer beneath the next generation of unattended systems — sensors, platforms, and infrastructure designed from the outset around power that doesn't run out. Not a part to spec into one device. The architecture underneath all of them.
Advanced Power Systems
Pure Energy & Integrated Power Systems
The Litzee® and Nucleon™ are vastly superior to Li-ion for long-endurance sensing applications, providing continuous, climate-independent power generation for decades of Maintenance-Free Operating Life (MFOL) where traditional lithium-ion batteries fail. DKS' alpha-voltaics deliver more power with far less activity than beta-voltaics, making them a preferred option for most applications.
