We do NOT have the grid/capacity for this type of "re-charge"

100 ahr in 15 minutes.... GOOD LUCK

Can't even recharge EV properly at the moment

Not yet. But I’ve asked for a review sample and pricing as soon as it’s available.

my brain is saying:

A: this is too good to be true , we'll SEE...

B: well they have been promising us next generation future battery technology for decades.

That battery is still in the lab. No one is making solid state lithiums yet or any time in the near future.

Will renogy battery be better in cold then current lithium?

Would I need 4 Renogy batteries for 400 Ahs? Noticed bat seems to be 105 Ah.

Yes, that’s the idea. But they are around 1” thick and I believe you can stack them up to 6 batteries high. I’ll know more soon.

What are the dimensions of this new solid state battery?

How many will fit in, say, a Battery Group Size 31 equivalent case?

Mike mentioned that up to eight will interface together...so over 850AH?

Are there any special environmental considerations, such as temperature, water resistant; air flow?

I’ll be finding out soon. 🧐

What I would like to know:

Since this is most likely a semi-solid, what is the chemistry of the gel being used, along with the structure of the solid matrix?

It is doubtful that Renogy is producing these; rather, an OEM is likely manufacturing the cells for them. I would like to know which OEM.

If Renogy does have production capabilities, whose license are they using? There are a handful of LFP SSB manufacturers in China and a couple in Korea/Japan that have the capability to produce these semi-solids.

I would also really like to know the composition of the anode active material.

Thanks Mike.

Once I know what’s under the hood I’ll do an in depth article on the technology…
