Throughout NAB 2025, we had a primary have a look at the Core SWX MoXIE Solo battery system and talked with Ross about the entire enhancements they made and the brand new equipment for the system. So, let’s take a better have a look at it!

American battery producer Core SWX is well-known for carefully listening to their clients and constantly popping out with new merchandise that clear up “real-life” on-set points. Throughout NAB 2025, the corporate introduced the Nano M-Snap battery packs with USB-C PD and their newest 98Wh Powerbase Edge Snap Xtreme.

Other than making compact digicam/digicam accent powering options, Core SWX can also be making manner bigger cell energy options, such because the MoXIE Solo, which they showcased finally yr’s Cine Gear. After sending a number of items on the sector and gathering customers’ suggestions, Core SWX returned to the drafting board and vastly improved the MoXIE Solo.

Core SWX MoXIE Solo – options

The MoXIE Solo, which implies “Cell, eXchangeable, Clever Vitality,” is a 3.6 kWh moveable powering answer that consists of two predominant parts: a mind with a touchscreen and all the ability outputs, and exterior batteries. Three variations of the mind can be found:

• MoXIE 1: AC 3.6 kWh -120V – 30 amp, for the US market.
• MoXIE 2: AC 3.6 kWh – 230V – 16 amp, designed for the European/UK market.
• MoXIE 3: AC 3-phase – 208V – 10 amp, primarily designed to energy robotic arms.

All three MoXIE variations use the identical cells and have a most output of three.6 kWh. Additionally, a Sync Module lets you run two items in parallel to double the present out, so you’ll be able to stand up to 7.2 kWh out of the MoXIE Solo system. The MoXIE Solo may even obtain as much as 9 kWh of energy when three Vita Cell packs are linked.

Two sorts of battery cells can be found: a 3kWh LiFePO4 Vita Cell and a 2kWh Kodiak Sodium Ion Cell. The Kodiak cell was the primary sodium-ion 2kWh product in the marketplace, and the primary benefit is that sodium operates all the way down to minus 40°C without having any warmup. Each cell packs function LED indicators and Core’s LED mild bar for clear and easy-to-read battery standing.

The entrance of the MoXIE Solo mind options a number of AC and DC at completely different voltages, together with:

• One 20A AC enter (120 or 230V) that may cost the unit in lower than 2.5 hours.
• Two 15V/16A 4-pin XLR, two 28V/16A 3-pin XLR, and two 48V/16A speakON DC outputs.
• Three AC outputs.
• Two 15V/10A P-Faucet outputs.
• Two USB-C PDPro and one USB-A port.

The concept behind the MoXIE Solo is to exchange “conventional” gas-powered smaller 2K/3K/5K/6.5 kWh mills. The primary benefit of the MoXIE Solo in comparison with energy mills is that the mind cage with out the cells weighs “solely” 65lbs/29.5kg, and the cells are round 62lbs/28.1kg, with dimensions of 16″ x 17″ x 24″/40 x 43 x 61cm.

This technique is comparatively mild in comparison with a 229lbs/104kg Honda 6.5 kWh generator. Additionally, the MoXIE cell system is modular since you don’t need to “refuel the tank”, as you’ll be able to hot-swap battery cells.

Moreover, the MoXIE Solo is totally silent throughout discharge, which can please the sound division on set. The system additionally has a Energy Precedence function, that means that for those who exceed 3.6 kWh, you’ll be able to prioritize AC or DC working on the touchscreen.

What’s new?

The primary noticeable change of the Core SWX MoXIE Solo system is the brand new aluminium body/cage across the mind. The brand new modular construct makes changing elements simpler for those who bend the cage. The mind can roll, and you’ve got three completely different wheel choices accessible: 6/8/10″.

Subsequent, Core SWX expanded the system with a number of new equipment:

• A Transporter Cage helps you to put two battery cells subsequent to the cage.

• The Matrix System is an exterior field that stacks throughout the cells and supplies AC outputs. It additionally has two battery inputs, so you’ll be able to constantly scorching swap. The Matrix System is designed for seamless energy distribution, enabling MoXIE Cells to function independently and ship clear, uninterrupted AC energy.

• The MoXIE Flex Charger. That is an exterior charger able to charging the two kWh Kodiak Sodium Ion Cell in 1 h 15min and the three kWh LiFePO4 Vita Cell in 2 h 30min.
• MoXIE Sync Module to hyperlink two MoXIE I/O cages and double the present output for high-demand functions.

Pricing and availability

The MoXIE Solo mind with out cells retails for $6,499. The 3kWh LiFePO4 Vita Cell retails for $3,000, and the 2kWh Kodiak Sodium Ion Cell is $2,499. The exterior charger prices $1,500, the Transporter Cage prices $929, and the MoXIE Matrix prices $3,000. As you’ll be able to inform, the MoXIE Solo is usually a rental system.
