FDGM (Yongkang Fengding Industry & Trade Co., Ltd.) has expanded its 60,000㎡ Yongkang facility with a new 18V P4A battery cell line — designed specifically for OEM partners in lawn care, hedge trimmers and pole pruners.

Why a dedicated cell line matters for B2B partners

Battery-powered garden tools are no longer a premium upsell — they are the default in EU public-sector tenders. Our partners need consistent runtime, stable supply, and a battery format they can build a 5-year SKU roadmap around. The new line standardizes on the P4A cell architecture used across our hedge trimmer, blower and pole pruner platforms — your customers carry one battery, you stock one part number.

What changed in 2026

  • Cell capacity: 2.5 / 4.0 / 6.0 Ah options on the same housing
  • Charging protocol: Compatible across our entire 18V P4A tool range
  • Burn-in & cycle test: 100% sample-tested per batch, full report on request
  • Lead time: 25–30 working days for OEM-branded units

Available for OEM / ODM from Q3 2026

Trade partners can request a sample pack via the contact form. We typically reply within 24 business hours.

After 18 months of iterative engineering, FDGM is proud to announce that our integrated smart watering controller module has achieved IP67 certification under IEC 60529 standards. This makes it the first hose-reel-integrated controller to earn this rating in the OEM supply chain.

Why IP67 Matters for Hose Reels

Garden equipment lives outdoors. Rain, sprinkler overspray, and seasonal flooding are not edge cases — they are the operating environment. Previous smart controllers rated at IP44 or IP55 suffered condensation-related circuit failures at rates of 3-7% within the first year. Our IP67 module reduces this to below 0.1% based on accelerated lifecycle testing.

Technical Specifications

  • Bluetooth 5.3 LE with 30m outdoor range
  • Integrated flow meter: ±2% accuracy, 1-30 L/min range
  • Rechargeable via USB-C, 6-month standby battery life
  • Compatible with FDGM P4A 18V battery ecosystem
  • OTA firmware updates via companion app

OEM Integration Options

The module is designed as a drop-in component for FDGM reel platforms, but we also offer a standalone version for partners who manufacture their own reel chassis. Custom branding, app white-labeling, and regional regulatory certification (CE, FCC, UKCA) are available as part of our OEM service package.
