    My new sodium-ion GT hybrid battery was being prepped for shipping yesterday and will be here today.

    This is the production version and is injection moulded not 3D printed like prototypes.

    Toyota hybrid battery upgrade pack– NexPower Energy

    So excited to install it and will also be upgrading the voltage sense harness with one from AcenBay.com

    Check them out and if you need to grab one use code "azusa" to save 10% OFF at AcenBay.com

    Stay tuned for installation pictures!!! 20240914_092106.jpeg

    YMMV and it all depends on the condition of your Prius components and load weight.

    For a stock Prius with age that is not getting 50 mpg it should bring it back to that but like I said it depends on the condition of the ICE or even down to the catalytic coverter and exhaust.

    Even to driving habits of the owner...

    This is new battery tech so I will keep an eye on the differences between it and the Lithium version.

    All in all this weighs less than an OEM or other aftermarket battery and this GT version has really low IR and the new honey comb module design keeps the temperatures right where it is best to achieve maximum power output from the HV battery system.
