Yeah I was excited by https://www.amazon.com/Yoshino-Solid-State-B4000-SST-Generator/dp/B0CPPKFXP3 and although available a bit niche but it ramping into production where its going to be high volume. Finally a battery tech that has made it to market.

I don't trust it. Off brand looking name. Has the high price, but then their upcharge for a few cheap looking solar panels is like a ridiculous $1400.

thats fine but I found out about it from a guys youtube where he ordered one and put it to the test. the guys channel has mostly been about his construction of a super efficient house with batteries and solar and such so I trust it exists as a product. not saying to anyone to buy it but was just showing they exist and are being sold. its not a wait and see battery technology anymore.

Are you talking about Matt Ferrel from Undecided?

Yeah....he doesn't know a lot about batteries, really. He's also doubled back after having some battery teardown reports shown to him and now says it doesn't seem likely yoshino is using a real solid state battery.

So no. It isn't likely "yoshino" gets to be the first to market with a real solid state battery in their product.
