Our Energy Store They contain no environmentally harmful products being made from Iron, Nickel, Potassium and Water. (These batteries have been out of production since 1972 when the Exide Battery Company purchased the technology and discontinued its production in North America. They continue to be popular wordwide whenever long life for a battery storage system is required for mining and emergency power.) Click here for the Nickel Iron Battery Association who offer general documentation on the technology. Our Own Nickel Iron Battery Research 700 Watts of Monocrystaline Solar Panels on Home (Wired for 40 or 80 volts) Maximum Power Point Charge Controller (Set up for Nickel Iron Batteries) Nickel Iron Batteries in Garden Shed (5.3 Kilowatt-hours of storage) We added solar panels to our home and nickel iron batteries to the garden shed for night time power. This system powers lights and computers. High Efficiency Solar Home Lighting (constant brightness from 12V to 40V) Dome Lamp with Diffusing Cover for 100 watts of LED Light. This light draws only 1/3 amp at 36.3 volts. The same light with 100 watts of incandescent power draws 3 amps. Thus you will use only 1/10th of the energy of incandescent
lighting, leaving your energy supply free for
other tasks. The lifespan
is estimated at 50,000 hours of operation. Testing
of this ultra efficient
mercury free design is underway in our family home.
Diffusing cover removed reveals blindingly bright pair of LED light modules, each equal to a 50 watt incandescent. Internal components of prototype showing leading edge LED modules, aluminum heat, sink and constant current regulator (white block). These will be available as a product for solar homes in July 2010. In our nickel iron battery backed house the voltage can vary from 39 volts to 12 volts ... but lights stay always the same intensity. They will be available in daylight white and warm white (incandescent colour). History of Nickel Iron Batteries Historic Electric Car Running on Nickel Iron (Ni-Fe) Batteries from 1912 to 1997 In North America Ni-Fe batteries have been out of production since 1973, when the Exide Battery company bought the process and took them out of production for unknown reasons. Lots to read at the Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association about these batteres. ![]() This car ran from 1912 to 1997 on the same Nickel Iron storage battery. Go to the Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association to read the story! Shown above is VEVA's 1912 Detroit Electric. This car was owned by Mrs. Florence French of Victoria, BC from 1912 till the 1950s. It was driven regularly until the mid-1950s. Electric cars were popular with the ladies due to the ease of starting, quietness and smoke-free cleanliness. The original Nickel-Iron batteries were replaced in the late 1990s because the cases were failing. After fixing a case leak they still worked fine after 85 years of operation! Visit the Detroit Electric at home in the Stave Falls BC Hydro powerhouse museum, also built in 1912! The museum is near Mission, BC at 31338 Dewdney Trunk Road. Call ahead at 604-462-1222 for hours. Jay Leno owns two of them, and one of them is Ni-Fe powered. His wife drives one of them and she says the worst thing about them is the silent operation which has caused her to almost run over dogs, cats, deer and pedestrians that walk across the road without noticing the car. The BC Provincial Museum in Victoria BC Canada also has one on display running on Ni-Fe batteries.

R&D
Inc wants to collaborate with a local boat builder to create boats
similar to
the plug in electric boat featured at the Chicago Worlds Fair of 1893. This amazing fleet of 55 36 foot long boats carried during two years over a million passengers in an almost silent powered electric boat. They made a profit of over $300,000 in 1893 to 1894. In today's money that is 30 million. ![]() We would like
to collaborate with an established local boat builder in
Victoria BC to
bring this kind of silent tour boat into existence once again. Smaller format boats could be created for family use in the inner harbour or in lakes that have outlawed gasoline engines. Our experience with hydrogen and solar technologies opens the way to hybrid energy sources as alternatives to a plug-in electric design. For many people the plug in electric is the ultimate in simplicity and silent operation. We envision using a submerged electric engine for absolutely silent boating. Our experience with hydrogen and solar opens up the possibilities for charging and increasing the range of such boats. The plug in electric version however is the ultimate in simplicity for tour boats. Modern battery technology will dramatically improve the range as compared to what was possible in 1893. If you are a boat builder in Victoria ... please consider working with us to create electric boats for Canadian waters. We thought we were pioneers in electric boats but historical research has shown that the concept is simple and was popular a century ago! Canada's
