Contoured for ComfortThe inspiration for our implantable battery comes from nature's shape: the egg. With the smallest footprint of any IPG on the market, the Precision® IPG features a contoured oval shape designed for patient comfort.

The Best Battery WarrantyWhen evaluating battery life claims, it's important to check whether a company backs up those claims with a financial commitment in the form of a warranty. Although a company might state that its battery will last many years, how much does a claim mean if a company doesn't stand behind it with a financial commitment? |
Zero VoltTM Technology – Peace of Mind from Battery Over-dischargePrecision Plus is the only SCS system with Zero-Volt battery technology.1,2,3,4 During the life of any rechargeable SCS system, a patient might discharge the battery hundreds of times. With conventional Lithium Ion batteries used in all other rechargeable SCS systems, even a single incidence of overdischarge can result in permanent battery damage or failure. However, Zero-Volt Technology means that patients won't damage their battery in the event of patient noncompliance with the charging routine. |
