Ann: Redflow releases its Gen3 battery, page-101

"Personally, I can(t) find a more complex battery cell in commercial manufacture! Can you?"

If we are to look at 'complexity of manufacture' then that should also include the manufacturing of the chemical elements of the EOS and Gelion designs vs a ZBM. Just saying heres a neat box that stores energy and it doesnt have moving parts and therefore is more efficient to manufacture is simplistic to say the least.

i dont know what chemical processes are involved - do you?

In my experience i would say most batteries are far more complex than a Zbm when their chemical structure and manufacture is taken into account.

And for the zbm having pumps and stacks etc has obvious benefits down the track when it comes to extended life & recyclability.


Eos and Gelion have "No individual control system." - call it as you see it , but i would rather know whats going right or wrong with a cell than not .
