alex vallette here (cofounder and ceo): shipping in the usa will resume in september. we had to suspend because of tarifs but now we have a warehouse on the east coast so things should be much more optimized as the tariffs will apply only on cost of goods ans not on the consumer price. subscribe to the newsletter to stay tune (we only send one mail every two weeks)
in cas the user puts it in the wrong direction, there is cell level fusing: https://docs.gouach.com/eco-designed-batteries/additional-be...
we buy cells at 1,2$
yes but there is a fuse per cell so even updisde down there is no fire hasard: https://docs.gouach.com/eco-designed-batteries/additional-be...
hello, the battery comes with a docking support so you'll have both side of the connector (femal on the battery, male on the dock). Inside the docking you'll have a PCB with wago that enables you tu just plug the bare cables inside. Once done, the only thing you need to do is t select the write CAN protocol (with the app or we can ship it with the right protocol in case you d'ont want to use the app).
classical NMC cells. In our case DMEGC 32E
which one ?
hello, we have selected a few tier 2 cells suppliers after many testing. One of them is DMEGC that had a much better results in terms of performance and impedance spread than Samsung or LG (based on 40k cells)
hello, thanks for this. We had a lot of orders without issues. The process goes through stipe and the only information we get is the name and email adress of the paying customer. tell me if you have any problem: alex@gouach.com
if you move on to the next step you'll see the price (330$) https://get.gouach.com/reservation
as we manage a lot of batteries in free floating we had fires after some batteries where massacred by users. We worked a lot on the fire issues and if you want to learn more read this: https://docs.gouach.com/fireproof-casing
yes check this out https://docs.gouach.com/fireproof-casing
you got us on this. These testimonials are free adaptation of what our beta testers told us. We had only about two dozens of them since 2021. However, we do have thousands of batteries on the field. Has you can see on this post it's the previous version of the pack that is being produced: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/getapony_d%C3%A9couvrez-les-c...
hello, yes we have been selling batteries for a while but not really to the consumers more to fleets of vehicles. Concerning the safety, Bosch batteries are among the best but if one of your cell does a thermal runaway, you're screwed, the plastic casing will just burn. Our aluminum casing withstands the complete burn down of the pack without letting one flame out. Checkout the test: https://docs.gouach.com/fireproof-casing
the app is just if you need to go deeper but you can definitely use the battery without the app
hello, not really, the app just gives you info about the cells and is useful to update the firmware but you can live without it. If we die before, will put it open source
hello, what's the problem with the iphone app ? you can go on the app store and see it exists
we are launching this new model but we make batteries since 2021 check https://docs.gouach.com/ you'll se we worked a bit
This library enabled us to convert 14.000 business models represented by huge excel files and use AWS EC2 to parallelise the calculations. An iteration of the prediction model that use to take more than one week, now takes 20 minutes.
Other contributors are using it in investment banking and trading and we feel there is a lot more that can be done with it. Feel free to give it a try.
