Corporate History

Founded in 1968, Universal Power Group ("UPG") was originally Computer Components Corporation and quickly became a leading distributor of electronic components, relays, capacitors and resistors to the OEM market. In 1977, UPG became one of the first and largest Authorized Panasonic Modifications Centers in the nation, designing and building custom VRLA/SLA, NiMh and NiCd battery packs for medical equipment, UPS equipment, and instrumentation for corporations such as Texas Instruments, Honeywell and IBM. UPG added cylindrical lithium, lithium polycarbon monofluoride and silver oxide chemistries to their battery pack manufacturing, building packs for tags used in electronic tracking systems, and for weather instrumentation used by the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration in 1982. In 1990, UPG broadened their scope from battery pack assembly of VRLA packs to distribution of VRLA sealed-lead acid batteries for the aftermarket and added power accessories including automotive jumpstarters to our product offerings.
