Curtis
Instruments
Curtis Instruments was founded in 1960 with fewer
than 10 people working in a rented storefront in Mt.
Kisco, 40 miles north of New York. In 1963, Curtis
pioneered gages to monitor the state-of-charge, the
"fuel" level, of vehicle traction batteries.
Astronauts exploring the moon in Lunar Roving Vehicles
in 1971-1972 relied on early Curtis gages. The moon
thus was a proving ground for forerunners of Curtis
gages that now enhance electric vehicles in warehouses,
factories and mines, on golf courses, mobility aids
for the handicapped and on-street vehicles. Since
1975, when it introduced the first solid-state battery
"fuel" gage with circuitry to prevent deep
discharge, Curtis has been the No. 1 world source
of instrumentation for electric vehicles. Today, Curtis,
still headquartered in Mt. Kisco, has over 1,000 employees.
It has four major engineering groups in New York,
California, Switzerland and China staffed by 125 top
engineers whose product development teams that set
the standards for vehicle performance in the industry.
