RENO, Nev., Aug. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dragonfly Energy Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:DFLI) ("Dragonfly Energy" or the "Company"), an industry leader in energy storage and battery technology and maker of Battle Born Batteries®, today announced an expanded partnership with Airstream, Inc®. With Battle Born Batteries now standard in Airstream's Model Year 2026 Interstate and Atlas motorized lines, Battle Born Batteries are now used across Airstream's entire product lineup both as standard features as well as optional upgrades. This expansion builds on a long-standing collaboration between two American brands committed to innovation, reliability, and enabling off-grid freedom.
"Our work with Dragonfly Energy has evolved into a strong and productive partnership over the years," said Chris Rahrig, Vice President of Supply Chain at Airstream. "As we expand our capabilities in off-grid travel, it's essential to align with partners who prioritize power independence, quality, and user experience."
The expanded collaboration now includes seamless integration of Battle Born lithium iron phosphate battery systems into the standard Advanced Power System and optional Advanced Power Plus Packages in Airstream's Mercedes-Benz® lineup of motorized products, officially unveiled at the Airstream International Dealer Meeting in July. Designed to meet rising demand for high-capacity energy solutions, these factory-installed systems are optimized for longevity and robust off-grid capability.
At the heart of these packages is the High-Capacity System featuring three of the Company's patented BBGC3 LiFePO₄ batteries, delivering 10.3 kWh of usable energy at 100% depth of discharge. Combined with integrated heating technology for cold-weather, seamless alternator charging and compatibility with solar, the system supports extended off-grid use and high-demand power needs.
Airstream Interstate and Atlas 2026 models equipped with the Advanced Power System can be upgraded to the optional Advanced Power Plus system. This upgrade-ready system allows customers to add up to two additional BBGC3 batteries (an extra 6.9 kWh) either at the factory or through an authorized Airstream dealer. This flexibility empowers owners to expand their energy system over time to match evolving power needs.
"We're proud to be Airstream's trusted lithium battery provider and to power the next generation of off-grid-capable RVs," said Dr. Denis Phares, CEO of Dragonfly Energy. "Our LiFePO₄ systems deliver the reliability and performance Airstream owners need to travel further and stay off-grid longer, whether it's a weekend trip or full-time adventure."
This announcement marks the next chapter in a long-standing partnership between two iconic American brands, united by their shared passion for innovation, reliability, and enabling off-grid freedom.
