    @Mr. F

    Follow the troll train the link to my thread where I told old chapman who I have met from the forum.

    Otherwise Im not sure what kind of personal info you want to know about me or why it matters to you.

    Honestly it seems like you have mental issues typing like a keyboard warrior who would never meet anyone in the first place.

    Seriously people, get a life. My NiMh battery caught fire FFS, I posted photos of it sometime back on this forum, yet I still had some members posting it was false (n)
    I have tortured a lot of LFP cells when I was initially designing our BMS and battery systems for off grid house batteries, and they simply do not catch fire .... they vent their more volatile parts of their electrolyte, it might look like smoke, but it is actually a dense cloud of vapour that settles very quickly, but they can't actually catch fire, they do not generate their own oxygen, so any fire would require oxygen from the air outside the cell casing and something to ignite it.

    It requires cobalt in the chemical make up to generate oxygen inside the cell when over heated, then you have all the requirements for a battery fire, LFP, LYP and lithium titanate do not contain cobalt, Sodium ion doesn't contain cobalt either, so no chance they will catch fire either.

    Sodium ion is a cell chemistry still developing and has been over 3 to 4 yrs, there are over 700 different combinations of anode, cathode, electrolyte mixes and more still in the lab.

    Even though popular social media experts seem to consider the electrolyte is salt water, that was abandoned in the very early testing, the water breaks down and shortens the cycle life, the non active plate (anode and cathode relate to the direction of electron flow, charging or discharging) is not graphite, hard carbon and graphene are popular at the moment, but CATL is already on its second commercial version, so it's way too early to say what the ultimate combination will be .... but you can bet it will come out of China ... they are just so far ahead of the game in battery technology now the rest of the world would be some what foolish to even attempt to play catch up ......
    Will sodium ion be the chemistry type to replace lithium ion ..... who knows, it will be the one that can charge the fastest, discharge at a consistent current rate from 100% SOC to 5% SOC without serious degradation of capacity or internal resistance over 10,000 cycles (that equates to 3 cycles from 100% to 5% every day for 10 yrs) yet remain cost effective .... sodium ion is up there with the best of them at the moment ......
