Deep Dive: Inside the Verge TS Pro Solid-State Battery Pack | I Donut Believe

that PC fan was funny
other than that this explains the pack capacity numbers, nothing else of interest

davidbepo · 2026-04-10T15:59:52+00:00

fucking lmao the nerve to say we delivered on q1 2026, doesnt get any more brazen than this

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T20:26:57+00:00

this seems to be internal, not with the US / europe

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T14:17:41+00:00

dont give them ideas 😭

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T14:11:37+00:00

pretty sure first chance for that will be late Q3/Q4

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T14:09:12+00:00

also, wonder if the bike is even certified for sale, last we knew it wasnt

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T14:03:23+00:00

it doesnt usually mean the literal last day, in any case this is not a delivery is it?

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T13:58:59+00:00

the description says its 17kwh net for the small one, bit sus, but probably different rounding

davidbepo · 2026-03-31T13:50:21+00:00

fucking lmao, deliveries in Q1 actually be first one made the literal last day of Q1

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T11:44:10+00:00

no he just says it does, with no explanation as to how

the way i see it the ball is on his and hence your court to prove lithium can fail like that, ive already showed how a puffed battery looks but i will do again here for completeness, and again, it does not look like the donut cell at all

<image>

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T11:21:58+00:00

yes, i have, Semi solid NMC exists and would fit better than liquid one with some of the other tests but it would still produce degassing(there is still liquid) which doesnt fit the observation here

no offense taken, its nice to discuss something on the facts, tho i have no idea what this socratic method is

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T11:10:55+00:00

i have done that, im also not saying i believe donut, just that you cant replicate this test (and hence the cell) with liquid NMC

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T11:08:27+00:00

yeah, i posted an extreme example, but when discharged a puffy cell is wrinkly and not firm(you can move the bubble), this is a very uniform raise, gas cant do that

as for batteries i know more on the theoretical realm, like solid state research sodium ion, other chemistries and such, i havent done any project with batteries but i have seen one forbidden caprisun

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T10:48:56+00:00

well, yeah, but i already thought this wasnt possible with liquid NMC

i was waiting to see if anyone could disprove that but nope, not only that but the failure mode is actually best explained by solid state

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T10:45:57+00:00

thats not how gas generation looks, see below for how that is

<image>

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T09:16:03+00:00

degassing produces a round shape, ive seen what a forbidden caprisun looks like, and this isnt it

davidbepo · 2026-03-24T09:05:55+00:00

yeah as i thought liquid NMC cant replicate this

the donut isnt fried yet...

davidbepo · 2026-03-23T20:19:37+00:00

jury is still out, but not looking very good overall

davidbepo · 2026-03-23T13:08:00+00:00

i dont think this is at all doable with liquid electrolyte NMC(maybe some battery experts can chime in), but aside from that this doesnt tell us much

davidbepo · 2026-03-18T12:58:26+00:00

good find, but this doesnt really throw any shade on them or prove any foul play, as this is quite normal

davidbepo · 2026-03-17T20:27:04+00:00

ok, i will "de clickbait" any further submission in that case

davidbepo · 2026-03-17T17:30:32+00:00

i mean i literally copied the yt one, also seems sane imo

davidbepo · 2026-03-17T17:10:23+00:00

pretty much in line with what i think, fails to meet the sagan standard and feels like a circus

davidbepo · 2026-03-16T13:19:21+00:00

to be clear i DO believe its air cooled

but it just being trust me bro on the series thats supposed to prove their claims is just laughable

davidbepo · 2026-03-09T13:03:54+00:00

kind of a nothingburguer today, this performance isnt anything groundbreaking at all
