5 hours of dive time & easily swappable
Experience the freedom and confidence that comes with extended dive times and enhanced power supply. This new robust battery can empower your Blueye ROVs for 5 hours in normal conditions.
The battery is easily swappable and takes under two minutes to change. Ensuring that you can focus on what matters most – executing your operation. You also have the flexibility to recharge the battery inside the drone or by removing it and charging through a portable charger when you're on the move.
With the average operating time from one battery, it is possible to conduct a survey preliminary to the divers work, which significantly reduces the time spend by divers on the survey and allows the diver to use available time specifically performing diving works. We recommend the use of the Blueye X3 ROV in diving units for a number of tasks in the security and defence sector.

Use-case benefits
Have you ever needed to reach the ROV's maximum depth rating of 305m? The High Capacity battery allows you to embark on deeper dives without rushing the job.
The new battery isn't just a great upgrade for diving the ROV itself; it also extends the dive time when carrying more power-demanding ROV peripherals. From diving with external lights & camera to high-resolution multibeam sonars.
This prolonged operational time is particularly valuable for various applications where underwater drones are often deployed for longer durations.
De-licing: Complete a full net inspection or station the ROV to monitor the fish behavior, without having to change batteries mid operation.
Search & Rescue: When time is of the essence, longer battery life means increased chances of quickly locating missing items or persons.
Vessel inspections: Complete the in-depth examination of the hull and propellers, without the need for frequent resurfacing.
Military operations: Seach vessels for contrabands or carry out deeper dives with multibeam sonars and other power-demanding equipment
Mentioned above are just a few examples of the numerous use cases that can greatly benefit from an extended battery life. Note that diving the ROV without power-demanding external equipment or in light conditions can exceed the 5-hour estimated runtime for the High Capacity battery.
Custom designed and fully certified
Safety is a top priority for us, which is why we ensure both our Standard and High Capacity batteries are rigorously tested and certified. Our in-house engineers designed the batteries exclusively for the Blueye underwater drones.
The High Cap battery is a result of our efforts to make a reliable solution with greater benefits for our customers. The Standard battery remains a great option for everyday exploration, and for easy transportation as carry-on luggage on airplanes. Choose the battery that suits your daily operations and inspections needs the best.
The High Capacity Battery & Charger Bundle
Using the new Blueye USB-C Charger 2.0, you can re-charge the batteries faster than before. Paired up with the Satechi Power Supply you can charge all your ROV accessories at the same time.
It's important to note that charging the High Capacity Battery using the older 1.Generation Blueye Charger will take signifigantly longer time - and is not optimal. Therefor we offer the High Capacity Battery & Charger Bundle for users who don't already have the USB-C charger.
