338: Ultra-low voltage charging technology announced

“Ren Yi, the ultra-low voltage charging pile is out and has passed testing without any issues…”

In the office.

Ren Yi was secretly admiring his secretary Lin Muwan’s new Balenciaga, unable to pull himself away.

Suddenly.

The phone rang, and he received news that the ultra-low voltage fast charging pile test unit had come offline.

The production and assembly of charging piles are far less complex than battery and motor technology.

Coupled with Fenglei's previous high-power dedicated charging piles, the production lines were already in place, naturally achieving twice the results with half the effort!

When Ren Yi arrived at the testing center.

The R&D Department Head and a group of technicians had already installed the product.

What appeared before him was a new type of vertical charging device.

Compared to most charging piles on the market, it appeared somewhat refined and compact, with the familiar Fenglei logo on the panel, and even the charging cable was only as thick as a finger, not looking very durable.

Seeing Ren Yi arrive.

The R&D Department Head immediately came forward, his face full of excitement, saying:

“Ren Yi, according to the solution you provided, we used Super Carbon Alloy as the base material for the casing of this charging pile, making the casing so sturdy it’s bulletproof.”

“Superconducting materials have also been added to the cable assembly and charging pile, resulting in very low resistance, which is why the charging cable can be made so thin.”

“The charging gun weighs only half of a regular one, making it easy for female car owners and children who can’t even unscrew a bottle cap to use…”

“The entire cooling system of the charging pile is handled by a bottom integrated liquid compressor, so even if the entire charging pile operates at full power load, it won’t produce much noise; it’s quite quiet!”

Many charging stations on the market currently use air-cooled designs, using built-in large fans for heat dissipation.

And to handle greater power, the cable assemblies used are quite thick.

This way.

It is indeed safer, but it also makes the entire charging plug quite heavy.

For male car owners, it’s not a big deal; it just takes a bit of effort.

But for some female car owners with less strength, they might have to use all their strength to insert the plug.

There have been many complaints about similar issues online.

However, currently, it has not been resolved.

After all, being able to cover the entire country with charging piles is already quite difficult, let alone having so many other requirements.

The infrastructure has burned through an unknown amount of money, and the costs haven't even been recouped yet.

Even if an improvement is to be made, it would be a long time from now.

Ren Yi also happened to stumble upon this suggestion in the comment section of the official website, which is why he had the R&D Department follow up on it.

Secondly, charging at such terrifying power generates a considerable amount of heat.

When ordinary charging piles operate at full power, the sound of the fan running can cause tinnitus.

However, the Fenglei ultra-low voltage charging pile’s cooling noise is very low.

Firstly, because the charging pile uses superconductors, the resistivity is low, and the heat generated is naturally low.

Additionally, the entire cooling system is handled by a liquid compressor.

Just the materials and design alone completely outperform all other super-charging equipment on the market.

Of course.

The most important criterion for evaluating a charging device is

still the fastest charging speed while ensuring safety.

As a new energy vehicle company, Fenglei will not, like a certain Apple company, promote to consumers that “slow charging is the way to extend battery life.”

That's pure nonsense.

It’s clearly due to their own insufficient technology and unwillingness to innovate that they came up with such a morally bankrupt marketing strategy.

Of course.

This kind of promotional method still receives support from many brain-dead fans.

No wonder, these people are naturally weak-kneed; Apple can price a SIM ejector tool at 198 and people still rush to buy it.

They call it “sense of technology”!

And being able to make batteries with long lifespans and good safety under fast charging conditions is what a technology company should do.

To cut costs for profit is purely treating consumers as fools!

“First, get a car over here to test it and see how long it takes to go from zero to full!”

Ren Yi instructed.

The charging test site was chosen at the open-air testing pilot point of the R&D Center.

Although the possibility of solid-state batteries spontaneously combusting is extremely low.

However, for new product testing like this, it is still necessary to strictly follow fire safety standards to prevent a one-in-ten-thousand chance.

The R&D Department prepared an empty “Fenglei M11” standard version.

The entire vehicle's battery was completely drained.

Although this car's battery capacity was not as high as the top-spec version, it still reached an astonishing 350 kWh, with an actual range of 2500 kilometers.

According to the speed of ordinary fast charging piles, it would take about one hour and forty minutes to fully charge this car.

The R&D staff pulled out the charging gun.

The car's charging cover also opened automatically, which is a basic linkage function between Fenglei's own charging equipment and the car, considered a small self-developed feature.

With a “click” sound.

The charging gun head inserted into the fast charging port and automatically locked.

Immediately, the charging indicator light at the rear of the car lit up.

A line of text appeared on the display screen inside the car's system:

Entering ultra-low voltage fast charging mode!

And at this moment.

The numbers of the battery percentage display jumped wildly before everyone's eyes.

01%, 5%, 10%, 20%… 99%!

The battery charge almost doubled.

This was an astonishing and shocking speed.

It is well known that

the time it takes for a battery to go from 0% to 80% only accounts for about 30-50% of the total time to full charge.

In other words, the charging efficiency decreases, but Fenglei's ultra-low voltage charging pile is precisely the opposite.

Everyone's eyes widened.

One must know.

This was not a small capacity like a phone battery.

The solid-state battery installed in the entire car was a full 350 kWh.

Enough for a typical family's electricity consumption for three months.

Almost every one or two seconds, tens of kilowatt-hours of electricity could be charged, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

In the last second, it even reached an astonishing 100 kilowatt-hours.

Under everyone's nervous gaze.

Five seconds passed in a flash.

“Ren Yi… charging is complete, total time 6.38 seconds!”

The R&D Department Head announced the test result with excitement.

This was charging the entire vehicle battery from zero to 100%.

At this time, the fuel tank cap of a gasoline car wouldn't even be open yet.

And now, filling up a tank of gas costs several hundreds.

Charging this high-energy density battery fully costs less than half.

Even a fool would know how to choose here!

Ren Yi revealed a satisfied smile.

This speed, although there was some deviation from the ideal state, this small error was insignificant.

One could say, it was incredibly awesome!

“Was the process just now recorded? This video has great promotional value…”

Ren Yi said meaningfully.

Once such an astonishing fast charging pile is introduced, it will cause a major earthquake in the charging station market.

Furthermore.

All Fenglei vehicle models and all companies using Fenglei batteries can seamlessly adapt to this charging pile.

Putting it online, who knows how many people will be shocked and dumbfounded.

Many foreign friendly competitors will probably lose sleep.
