Hey wrenches
I have been to the Sacramento facility, they are 48 vdc nom. We ran some
tests on site pushing pretty hard and the battery did well, no volt drop,
was well over 250 amps for an extended period of time.  It might be good to
reach out to them and do a visit to see how it works, bring your own DC
Clamp to confirm the instrument readings.

Howie,

I have never heard about them, but I am interested. If you get any more 
information, I'd love to hear about it. Do they do 48V batteries? or an AC ESS?

Are there spec sheets available?

I've been able to find very little information about them.

Thanks,
Kienan

Has anyone had any experience with the VillaGrid Lithium Titanium batteries?  
They are supposedly usable in below zero temperatures, which of course the LFP 
batteries are not.  They also apparently have a 20 year 10,000 cycle warranty 
(not that I really put much stock in being able to exercise a warranty even 15 
years out). They are doing their own distribution at this point, but the sales 
person wouldn't tell me pricing until I sat in on a more formal presentation, 
which tells me I'm not going to be overly thrilled with the price point.  They 
are very new on the market, but just thought I'd ask.
Thanks,
Howie

[RE-wrenches] VillaGrid Lithium Titanium Batteries

2023-01-23 Thread Howie Michaelson via RE-wrenches
Has anyone had any experience with the VillaGrid Lithium Titanium
batteries?  They are supposedly usable in below zero temperatures, which of
course the LFP batteries are not.  They also apparently have a 20 year
10,000 cycle warranty (not that I really put much stock in being able to
exercise a warranty even 15 years out). They are doing their own
distribution at this point, but the sales person wouldn't tell me pricing
until I sat in on a more formal presentation, which tells me I'm not going
to be overly thrilled with the price point.  They are very new on the
market, but just thought I'd ask.
Thanks,
Howie
