Whether embedded or IoT, the life of battery-powered applications has always been challenging to assess.

To simplify this challenge, @Qoitech offers a product portfolio, backed up by their Otii Ace and Otii Arc hardware, that is accessed through a powerful yet free and perpetual desktop application.

At PCIM 2025, Maria Hernandez, Qoitech's Product Specialist, guided us through an easy method for measuring an IoT application's power consumption, determining potential battery life based on a range of available battery models, and automated testing using Python scripts. She also updated us on Qoitech's improved licensing model, including perpetual licenses for their Otii Toolboxes, which can now be purchased through their distributors, such as Mouser Electronics.
