Realised a 30 to 60-minute increase in battery run time, which in many cases, allowed fleet operators to work through an eight-hour shift while only having to charge the battery once.
Calculates a potential US $50,000 to $200,000 annual labour savings due to the increased battery run time. The number of operators on a given shift multiplies the savings realised from operators spending less time in the battery room and more time in production.

A Tippmann Group company, Interstate Warehousing operates more than 2,265,347 cubic metres (80 million cubic feet) of refrigerated warehousing space at 10 facilities located throughout the United States.
Interstate Warehousing uses an in-house software program to manage and track forklift batteries for maintenance and runtimes. Data from this program proved that the company needed to increase operational efficiency.
The Crown RM 6000 Series reach truck improves operational efficiency with extended battery run times and less frequent battery changes. The combination of a larger F-battery compartment and standard Regenerative Lowering improves run time by as much as 25%.
