eSTS-BM-OEM
Board-Only Battery Modulation Adapter for Samsung Micro USB Mobile Devices
$34.99 / Web Price
The eSTS-BM-OEM is a board-only adapter (no casing) that provides compatible Samsung Micro USB mobile devices* with Battery Modulation.
Part of the e Series’ RBM technology, Battery Modulation protects the mobile device’s battery from constant overcharging, which can degrade the battery over time and shorten its lifespan.
How the eSTS-BM-OEM Works
The eSTS-BM-OEM adapter provides compatible Samsung Micro USB mobile devices* with RBM’s Battery Modulation technology
Battery Modulation protects the mobile device from overcharging and its battery from bloating, which can cause severe damage to the device. The LAVA Tablet Manager (LTM) app, installed on the mobile device, monitors the battery level and users can set upper and lower charging thresholds for the battery. When the battery charges to the higher threshold, the adapter turns off charging and the mobile device is allowed to discharge until it hits the lower threshold. This ensures the battery never overcharges, even if it is left plugged in 24/7. Battery Modulation extends the lifespan of both the battery and device for a better return on investment.
Other Features
RBM also features Screen Brightness Management, which lets customers set a daytime and night-time brightness level through the LTM app, as a way to combat overheating. This allows for the mobile device to have a bright display during the day when the business is open and a dimmer display at night after it closes. The display is one of the biggest sources of heat for a mobile device. Excess heat puts additional strain on the battery and can also accelerate battery bloating. Dimming the display during off-hours significantly reduces its heat generation, prolonging the lifespan of the device.
The adapter has no casing (board only) but comes with a Micro USB to Micro USB cable to connect the mobile device. This custom LAVA cable must not be extended or replaced with a third-party one. Doing so will cause the mobile device to stop working.
The Micro USB-B power port is rated for the standard 5 volts at 2 amps. It is recommended to use the charging cable that came with the mobile device**.
*The eSTS-BM-OEM is not compatible with all Samsung mobile devices. Please see the list of tested Samsung devices.
** A separate power supply is not included.
