Police and Fire Departments Receive Batteries to Keep Communication Equipment Running
FRAMINGHAM, Mass. -- Global Technology Systems, Inc. (GTS), the worldwide leader in
design and delivery of portable power, today announced it has donated high-performance
batteries to the Memphis Police and Fire Departments to aid their flood relief efforts. The
batteries will help the public safety personnel communicate during this disaster, when
recharging batteries may prove difficult due to power outages.
GTS develops and manufactures high-performance batteries with industry-leading
runtimes for mobile devices, including those for the two-way radios used by the Memphis
Police and Fire Departments. The long runtime is especially critical during emergencies,
since police and fire often work extended shifts.
“At GTS, we are committed to helping emergency first responders during these historic
floods,” said Diane Wirtz, North American Public Safety manager at GTS. “Our experience
during the Hurricane Katrina aftermath taught us how valuable fresh batteries can be.
The public safety departments rely on their two way radios during these emergencies,
but with limited power to recharge them, communication can be lost mid-operation.
We are sending high-capacity batteries so that the radios will run for multiple shifts
without recharging.”
