As the demand for electric vehicles, solar energy storage, and smart devices grows, so does the number of lithium batteries in use—and eventually, in need of replacement. Unfortunately, most of these batteries are tossed into landfills when they stop working, even if the issue is minor or fixable.
At UpFix, we’re changing that.
By offering expert LiFePO₄ battery and BMS repairs, we help customers extend the life of their original batteries and significantly reduce electronic waste. Here’s how choosing repair over replacement helps protect the planet—without sacrificing performance.
The Problem With Throwing Batteries Away
Every year, millions of lithium batteries are discarded—even when many could be repaired. These discarded batteries:
-
Contain toxic materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel
-
Can leak harmful chemicals into the soil and water
-
Are highly flammable and pose fire risks in landfills
-
Require significant energy and resources to manufacture new replacements
The worst part? Many “bad” batteries are actually perfectly usable—they’re just suffering from a faulty BMS or a few out-of-balance cells.
Repair Extends Battery Life—By Years
When you send your lithium battery to UpFix, we perform a full diagnostic, pinpoint the failure, and replace only what’s necessary—like:
-
Damaged or degraded cells
-
Faulty BMS components
-
Corroded connectors or broken terminals
-
Outdated firmware
-
Imbalanced cell groups
This extends the usable life of your battery—often by several years—and keeps another large, toxic component out of a landfill.
