Unreliable Power Grids is a New Reality 

As you might already know, California is going thru a major energy crisis this summer.  Our grid, one of the most reliable in the world is suffering rolling brown outs, complete blackouts, scheduled service interruptions and just unreliability all around.
Things are so bad here that "Gov. Gavin Newsom - declar{ed}  a state of emergency and signed a proclamation that suspends air-pollution regulations that could inhibit the use of portable and stationary generators."

Now that''s not just happening here in California,  Energy demands all over the world are increasing while power grids are not being updated fast enough to handle the increasing demand.
Now I know what many of you are saying.... "I have solar panels,  Im doing my part to help".  And even though that is a great start, most owners of PV systems are actually adding to the problem.  You see here in California there is actually too many solar installations and collectively they actually produce a surplus of energy in the early part of the day so much that we have to pay neighboring states to absorb the extra energy. 

The problems stressing the grid are compounded as it goes from having too much available energy in the morning to having surging energy demand just when the sun is going down and all those solar installations stop producing.  It creates what is now known as the duck curve.


So that in Brief  is the The Problem.  Now lets talk about the solution,  Batteries!
Batteries are the most effective way to shift all that surplus energy from the early part of the day to the later hours when its most needed,  and the beauty about them is that they don''t need to be in giant grid size installations.  Each one of us can do our part and install a small battery system in our garage that handles our personal need.   Most people only use about 10kwh during those few hours of critical demand.  What does a 10kwh battery pack look like?  Here is an example of Do it Yourself built Powerwalls


Luckily Battery prices are coming down everyday and you can currently get new lithium cells anywhere between $150-$300 per kWh  and used/reclaimed cells for $100-$200 per Kwh. Also Building a DIY battery pack is becoming easier with modular systems like my PCB based modules 


So Bottom line,  Long term you need to install a Solar system with a Backup/Storage Lithium Battery.  Store bought or DIY doesn''t really matter, but you can save by doing it yourself.

Short term,  Everyone needs an Emergency power pack  DIY or store bought 


If you do decide to go DIY on any of these projects here some Lithium Batteries that are currently selling on my website for $115/kWh with code MH1SALE at checkout.

We have a new product to help you assemble existing packs like the ebike batteries I offer or the Hoverboard packs available thru our partners, two Versions of the DC PowerStrip are now available 80A for small light duty and 160A for serious battery systems.


Remember there are Many ways to build a battery system,  But why go the hard way? Go the easier way and save 10% on all Populated PCB battery module products using Code - POP10 - at checkout.

Almost Done Building a DIY powerwall

So Many of you have bought Scooter batteries this month.  Understandably since these are the best reclaim cells that have come around yet.   The Scooter packs Containing 40 3200mAh LGMH1 cells will end up in so many of your projects,  so I wanted to share my current build with you.

Its going to be a 12kwh 36v back up powerwall.  I will be building a separate one to handle the load shifting needed to save money on energy costs.  I was trying finish this project before the end of the current 16% off sale but I just ran out of time!  
The sale ends in just under 2 days and then they go up to regular price but the bigger problem is that I''m worried that some big company is going to buy all of them and then they won''t be available to us anymore.  I do not own these so I don''t have a say where they end up unfortunately.  So to get the 16% off you have to   buy the 4 or 6 pack. Just use this link https://j35.us/MH1-SALE or the code MH1-SALE at checkout.

Im Hoping that most of these end up in DIY projects. If you haven''t seen the videos on these have a look here

Building Battery packs has never been easier

As you might already know, I have been working on a Battery Building system for about 2 years,  Progress has been a bit slow but Im finally getting there. Ive recently been able to get past some production hurtles and so now I''m able to offer most of the PCB lineup in a populated form so you can simply load your cells and quickly build your custom battery packs. 

To celebrate my achievements im offering 10% Off Sale on all Populated PCB battery module products using Code - POP10 - at checkout.
