Please be advised that Fanso’s parent company, EVE group, has made the decision to close the factory that manufactures their spiral wound lithium thionyl chloride cells.

*Requires Super Capacitor - please speak to a Master Instruments team member to confirm suitability

We will be working with our valued customers as available stock sells through to find a suitable alternative to ensure minimal disruptions.

The MI Product team are also working to find a suitable quality alternative brand to fill the void left by this factory closure. There are many challenges such as the increasing cost of lithium, increasing freight & logistical costs and lower volumes for spiral wound products compared to Bobbin style product. Stay tuned for developments in this space.

If you have any questions, please contact out friendly sales team.
