Refurbished

A refurbished hybrid battery is a used, tested battery with matched cells, reliable capacity, and up to a 1-year warranty. Learn More

Cylindrical

A cylindrical hybrid battery features round cells, enhancing heat dissipation and efficiency. It’s brand new with a 100,000 km or 3-year warranty. Learn More

Prismatic

A prismatic cell hybrid battery matches OEM shape and size, is third-party manufactured, and includes a 3-year or 100,000 km warranty. Learn More

Li-Ion

Typically, hybrid batteries use nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) technology; however, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries represent a newer, more powerful option. Li-ion batteries are lighter, operate at higher voltages, and can effectively trick the computer into utilizing them more, resulting in enhanced efficiency and improved overall performance for your hybrid vehicle.

OEM

OEM hybrid batteries are purchased directly from Toyota dealerships at wholesale rates, with warranty coverage provided through Toyota.

Refurbished Hybrid Battery

Our refurbished hybrid batteries—also known as pre-owned, remanufactured, or reconditioned batteries—are expertly tested and restored for optimal performance. These batteries offer a reliable, cost-effective alternative to new options, with high remaining capacity and matched cells to ensure lasting efficiency. Ideal for extending your vehicle’s life at a fraction of the cost.

Battery deep cycling | iHybrid | Lower Mainland

Deep cycling (1 day)

Our remanufacturing process involves multiple precise steps to ensure top quality. First, we deep-cycle each battery module to recover most of its capacity, maintaining an average discharge voltage of 7.5 volts. We optimize internal resistance and conduct rigorous insulation testing at 500 volts, ensuring reliable, high-performance batteries you can trust.

Selecting Best Modules | iHybrid | Lower Mainland

Selecting Best Modules (1 day)

After the initial steps, we retain only the cells that have 85% or more of their original capacity, discarding any degraded cells. We ensure that the disposal of these cells is conducted in an environmentally friendly manner, aligning with our commitment to sustainability while providing high-quality refurbished batteries for our customers.
Battery Self Discharge Test | iHybrid | Lower Mainland

Self Discharge Test (30 days)

In the second step, we allow the battery to rest for 30 days before conducting further tests. This period ensures that it maintains its charge effectively, allowing us to verify that no cells exhibit abnormal self-discharge. This critical step confirms the reliability and longevity of the refurbished battery.
Balancing / Packing Battery | iHybrid | Lower Mainland

Balancing / Packing (3 days)

Next, we balance the battery pack over a 36-hour period, ensuring optimal performance across all cells. After balancing, we group the modules based on capacity calculations, providing the best chance for longevity and reliability. This meticulous process enhances the overall lifespan of the refurbished battery, ensuring you get the most value.

Remanufacturing a hybrid battery is similar to winemaking; it takes about 40 days to create one battery pack when done properly

Hybrid battery pack with New Cylindrical Cells

Cylindrical hybrid batteries offer several advantages over prismatic batteries, including superior heat dissipation and structural integrity. They typically feature higher energy density and easier manufacturing, resulting in consistent quality. Their modular design allows for flexible configurations, while enhanced thermal management contributes to a longer lifespan and improved overall performance.

Note: With the cylindrical battery option, only the battery cells are replaced. The original computer and metal shell will be reused from your existing battery pack.
