VersaVolt Information

Our batteries convert seawater and oxygen into energy. We make a flexible battery "cloth" in rolls about 3/4mm thick that can be cut to any shape and combined with small sensors and communications devices. Our environmentally friendly products are best-in-class for delivering slow, sustained power to small "smart" devices, multi-node networks, low-power medical devices, wearables, and underwater applications. When produced at scale, they are hundreds of times cheaper to produce per kiloWatt hour than other battery technology - and contain three to fifteen times the power of other batteries for their size. VersaVolt batteries are "green," nonflammable, work underwater, offer important performance benefits, are flat and flexible, safe in operation, and have superior shelf life when stored dry.
