The AuraGen ICS option turns the AuraGen into a power management system, the company said. The system provides AC power to the truck user either with the truck engine operating or with the engine off. The transitions between the engine on and off modes are totally transparent to the user both operationally and in power quality, without any spikes or interruptions.
