Energy Assurance, a leading test lab, chooses Voltaiq to power their ChannelView solution

Battery product development is a costly and arduous process. Developing new battery products requires extensive prototyping, testing, and data analysis -- requiring extensive human and financial resources. An external battery test lab can jumpstart a company’s ability to pilot new and innovative batteries and to scale the production of existing battery and battery-enabled devices. Utilizing a third-party test lab for battery testing capabilities has some advantages that include:

Another Product Recall Due to Battery Issues

On Tuesday, the Washington Post reported that Lime, an innovative electric scooter company, was forced to pull thousands of its scooters off the streets due to concerns around defective batteries.

Highlights from AABC: Battery Intelligence and simulation, OEM sustainability, the emergence of 48V micro-hybrids, and the pursuit of high energy density cathodes

Voltaiq exhibited at the Advanced Automotive Battery Conference (AABC) in San Francisco in late June. We had fascinating and insightful conversations with industry experts and key players in the automotive, Li-ion, and lead-acid value chains, as well as emerging applications like drones and small aircrafts. Those conversations as well as the excellent group of speakers offered perspectives on the rapidly growing market dynamics. Voltaiq noted a number of key trends from the conference:

Evaluating The New Arbin Instruments Linear Battery Testing Series Cyclers

Arbin Instruments generously decided to let us do a side-by-side comparison of their newest line of battery testers, the LBT series, with their traditional BT-2000 series test systems. This new generation of testers, along with the new HPTCE series (capable of meaningful high-precision coulomb counting), are the result of Arbin’s collaboration with Ford Motor Company and Sandia National Lab through the Department of Energy’s ARPA-E program.

Arbin and Maccor Recommended Cycling Procedures

At Voltaiq we’re often asked for recommendations on how to best set up and record data from a battery or capacitor test. If you’re like us, you probably built your first test program using a template created by someone else — without first thinking through the implications of each recording step. At the end of this post we'll provide some best-practice cycling procedures to produce rich data sets with minimal noise, delivering powerful insights from your battery data.

Battery Data, The Basics

Devices powered by batteries are all around us. Think of how many batteries are within arm’s reach as you read this! There are single-use alkaline batteries in our TV remotes and wireless mice/keyboards, and rechargeable lithium batteries in our cell phones and laptops. These devices can be tiny, like pacemakers, or large like the batteries powering electric vehicles or storing energy on the electric grid.

U-M BattLab Opening August 2015 with Voltaiq Energy Storage Analytics Software

BROOKLYN, NY, May 12, 2015 — Leading energy storage analytics software developer Voltaiq, Inc. (www.voltaiq.io) is pleased to announce that it has licensed Voltaiq Core and Voltaiq Analytics to the University of Michigan’s Energy Institute as part of its groundbreaking new $8 million battery lab (http://energy.umich.edu/projects/battery-lab), enabling industry and university researchers to quickly manage and analyze data at the facility or remotely.

Voltaiq was awarded a DOE Phase II SBIR for $1m

We're thrilled to announce that we have been awarded a U.S. Department of Energy Phase II SBIR. The award will total (just under) $1m over two years. This award will allow us to continue to grow our team, and to build out the Voltaiq Suite of applications for energy device data analysis.

Voltaiq was awarded an NSF Phase I SBIR

Happy New Year! We're excited to announce tha Voltaiq was awarded a Phase I NSF SBIR grant. The grant will help us expand Voltaiq's functionality. A new analytics console will enable users to directly analyze the wealth of test data in Voltaiq Core. A further predictive analytics module will automate these analyses to uncover trends hidden in your data, predict future device performance, and recommend development paths.

Voltaiq Launch

We’re excited to announce the launch of the new Voltaiq website. Try a demo of Voltaiq Core to see the power of our advanced data managment and visualization solution, or create your own Voltaiq Cloud account to try Voltaiq Core out with your own performance data.

Subway Labs is now Voltaiq

Subway Labs is now Voltaiq! Look out late this summer for the launch of Voltaiq Core, the first available module of the Voltaiq Suite. Voltaiq Core is a powerful data visualization and analytics tool for batteries, capacitors and fuel cells — streamlining data management tasks, putting valuable insights front and center.

DOE SBIR

We're excited to announce that Subway Labs was awarded a Phase I DOE SBIR grant. The grant will aid Subway Labs to develop our first product, IV Spy, which enables companies to develop new energy products faster while utilizing fewer resources. IV Spy is an integrated platform for tracking device performance throughout the product lifecycle, from R&D, QC and integration, through deployment. Our product lets users easily view and analyze data in an intuitive, browser-based interface. Data files are automatically synchronized to a centralized database, enabling deep statistical analysis across the entire body of data in real time.
