Dragonfly Energy secures patent for high-power vehicle-to-trailer charging

RENO, Nev. - Dragonfly Energy Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:DFLI), a $18.1 million market cap company with annual revenues of $54.54 million, has secured U.S. Patent No. 12,403,782 for its Wakespeed Charge Control technology, the company announced Thursday. According to InvestingPro data, analysts anticipate sales growth for the company in the current year.

The newly issued patent covers technology that enables power transfer from towing vehicles to trailers for charging onboard batteries. This innovation addresses limitations in traditional vehicle-to-trailer charging systems, which have typically been restricted to a few hundred watts through standard 12V connectors. While the company maintains a gross profit margin of 25.56%, InvestingPro analysis indicates the company faces challenges with its $63.85 million debt burden.

According to the company, the patented technology scales charging capability to kilowatt levels at higher voltages, including 48V and beyond, while incorporating safety features to 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.

The patent adds to Dragonfly Energy’s intellectual property portfolio, which now includes approximately 100 filed, pending, or granted patents. The company, known for its Battle Born Batteries brand, specializes in lithium battery technology, including cell manufacturing, battery pack assembly, and system integration.

The announcement reflects Dragonfly Energy’s ongoing expansion from battery manufacturing into broader power system solutions across multiple industries. The company stated that the technology supports original equipment manufacturer (OEM) adoption by enabling integration of various power system components.

These financial results were accompanied by strategic initiatives, including a newly expanded partnership with Airstream, Inc. Under this partnership, Dragonfly’s Battle Born Batteries have become the lithium battery option for Airstream’s entire product lineup. Specifically, these batteries are now standard in Airstream’s Model Year 2026 Interstate and Atlas motorized lines. Additionally, they are available as standard features or optional upgrades across all Airstream products. These developments reflect Dragonfly Energy’s ongoing efforts to innovate and expand its market presence.
