Agriculture Spraying Drone Batteries — Built for Indian Field Conditions
High-Discharge Batteries for Agri-Spraying, Sowing & Mapping UAVs
Agriculture drone operations are among the most demanding in the UAV industry — heavy liquid payload, repeated short cycles, heat, dust, and high discharge rates all day long. Leolus Energy's Nexfly semi-solid state batteries are engineered specifically to handle this workload, delivering more flights per charge, more cycles per pack, and more reliability under real Indian farming conditions.
More energy per gram = longer spray runs before battery swap
3× longer lifespan than standard LiPo packs under agri-use conditions
Handles the high-current draw of heavy spray payload lifts
Stable performance in summer field conditions across India
Why Agriculture Drones Need a Different Battery
A drone designed for photography or inspection is nothing like an agriculture sprayer. Agri drones carry liquid payloads of 10 to 40 litres, fly in tight coverage patterns, land and take off repeatedly, and operate for extended hours across seasons. The battery must keep up with all of this:
- Heavy payload discharge: Lifting a full spray tank requires a sustained high-current draw right from the moment of takeoff. Batteries with poor peak discharge rates sag in voltage, reducing lift efficiency and shortening flight time precisely when it matters most.
- Rapid cycling through the day: A productive spray operation runs 15–30 battery cycles in a working day. Standard LiPo packs degrade faster under this usage pattern; semi-solid state cells maintain capacity for significantly more cycles.
- Heat stress in Indian fields: Paddy fields in Andhra Pradesh in May, cotton fields in Vidarbha in October, or mustard fields in Punjab in winter — each environment stresses the battery differently. Our cells operate stably across the Indian temperature range without thermal runaway risk.
- Moisture and chemical exposure: Agricultural environments involve morning dew, humid conditions near water bodies, and chemical spray mist. Our battery packs are sealed to resist this ingress.
- Flat voltage curve: Unlike batteries that sag toward end of discharge, Nexfly cells maintain a near-flat voltage output through most of the discharge cycle — giving the drone consistent motor performance right until the low-battery return trigger, maximising spray coverage per flight.
Recommended Nexfly Configurations for Agriculture UAVs
6S (22.2V) — Mid-Size Agri Sprayers & Mapping Drones
The 6S configuration is the most common choice for 10–20 litre agricultural spraying drones operating in India. It delivers the right balance of voltage, current, and weight for mid-frame agri UAVs designed for paddy, cotton, sugarcane, and horticulture spraying.
12S (44.4V) — Large Payload Sprayers & Sowing Drones
For drones carrying 25–40 litre spray tanks or precision sowing systems, the 12S configuration provides the higher voltage and discharge capability needed to lift heavy payloads without voltage sag. Ideal for large-scale farm operations and drone-as-a-service fleets covering high acreage per day.
4S (14.8V) — Small Precision Sprayers & Scout Drones
For smaller precision spraying systems, plant health scouting drones, and light-payload agricultural UAVs operating in orchards, greenhouses, or narrow row crops where larger drone frames are impractical.
