Chapter 672: You Get What You Buy

"That's right, it's a new super solid-state battery."

Wu Hao repeated, and then introduced with a smile: "This is our latest research and development of super battery technology, this battery technology can be said to have brought about a technological revolution in the entire battery industry, pushing battery technology to a new stage."

We've been testing the technology since it was unveiled at the air show last year. Not only us, but also handed over the battery to a number of domestic research institutes and technical units, and they conducted more authoritative third-party testing.

These tests are very rigorous, some measure battery performance, some test safety, and some test pollutants and environmental standards.

In the end, these units have always believed that our battery is much higher than the lithium-ion battery at this stage in terms of performance, safety and even environmental protection of battery materials, and some have even improved it several times. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Hao showed a somewhat helpless look and said: "It is precisely because this battery technology is too advanced that we have encountered great problems in its commercialization."

First of all, in terms of technology and patent protection, because batteries are too advanced, they will be used as many cutting-edge military weapons and equipment, so the relevant departments attach great importance to the protection of technology.

Even now, the core technology and integrated pouring technology of our battery and other production processes have not been patented, and they have been carried out in a self-confidential way.

This is very rare in today's world where technology patents are common, and it was difficult to imagine in the past.

Fortunately, we have an automated unmanned production line, and all batteries are poured through the unmanned production line, so it is much more convenient for us to keep it confidential.

Originally, this technology was forbidden to be sent out according to the relevant regulations, but because this technology is too promising. That's why we got special permission to put this battery on our smart AR sunglasses for the first time. ”

As he spoke, Wu Hao took the smart AR sunglasses and introduced to the camera: "Everyone, please see, the temples of this pair of smart AR sunglasses are much thinner than the temples of the smart AR glasses series we released before."

As for the products of other friends, we don't have to. ”

"Thanks to the one-piece pouring technology, the new super solid-state battery can be said to make full use of the space inside the slim temples and use it to the extreme.

In the end, we stuffed a total of 19 grams of battery into the temples of this pair of smart AR sunglasses, and it has a whopping 780 mAh battery capacity.

That's right, this battery life is higher than the battery capacity of our previously released smart AR glasses, while the weight and volume are almost one or two times lighter.

I think this should be the most energy-dense battery in the world today. ”

"Secondly, the safety of the battery, especially our smart AR glasses, usually have the longest contact time with our skin, especially the fragile skin of the face and fragile organs such as the eyes, so safety is the most important.

Among them, the safety of the battery is particularly important.

Although our new lithium battery is already very safe, this time we can say that the safety of the battery has been pushed to a very high level, almost touching the ceiling.

Because it is poured and molded in one piece, the strength of the battery itself is relatively high, so it has the advantages of drop resistance, shock resistance, high temperature resistance, waterproof, puncture-proof, and compression resistance.

In this regard, we have obtained test reports from several laboratories and research institutes in China, and they all have full marks in the safety category.

If you are more rigorous, it is not a perfect score, and there is an organization that gives us a score of 9.8, I think this is to encourage us and warn us not to be proud and continue to work hard.

As for battery life and range, I won't go into too much detail because we've never disappointed in this area.

Let me give you a simple example, after 10,000 hours of high-intensity block flushing experiments, the battery can still retain 99.6% of the battery, which is absolutely unprecedented.

Soon, this product will be available to everyone, and those who have doubts about it can test it themselves at that time. We don't play tricks, we just talk according to the data and actual use experience, which is the most real experience for everyone. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Hao showed a hint of annoyance and said: "Is this battery good, it is naturally excellent."

There is no doubt that it represents a new direction in the development of batteries. However, the technical cost is relatively high because it is too good.

In addition to the relatively high cost of raw materials and the complexity of the integrated pouring process, we have also invested huge R&D costs.

So these add up, and the cost of this battery has risen. Although we have tried to reduce the cost as much as possible, the cost of this battery of only 19 grams is as high as two or three hundred.

At least at this stage, this price is already the limit of what we can do, and when we are approved in the future and we can mass produce, this price will be lowered.

Therefore, we should not always dislike our products expensive, you get what you pay for, and it is naturally expensive. If we come up with an ordinary product to fool consumers and make money, I think smart and wise people will definitely not buy it. ”

The R&D cost of this new super solid-state battery is higher, but it is not as exaggerated as Wu Hao said. As for the production cost, in fact, the production and manufacturing cost of this battery may be lower than that of traditional lithium batteries. Because it is directly poured and molded, there are many fewer processes, and the natural cost is reduced.

And the reason why Wu Hao said this is also to make it easier for everyone to accept. After all, with such a good technology, it is also appropriate to increase the price.

Secondly, Wu Hao is also in order to open this new super solid-state battery as much as possible, and the price range of the new lithium battery and traditional lithium battery they released before.

After all, they release new batteries one after another, and the impact and damage to the entire industry is too great.

Fortunately, this year, Wu Hao decided to open their first generation of new lithium battery technology to the industry, which made these manufacturers breathe a little breather.

But this breath is not over, Wu Hao's new super solid-state battery has begun to be put into commercial use. This made a group of peers anxious, and even complained, which shows the grievances in the hearts of these people at the moment.

How to deal with this, in the face of this huge generation gap in technology products, it is no longer something that marketing can solve.

Fortunately, Wu Hao was kind, first opened the first generation of new lithium battery technology, and then appropriately increased the price of this new super solid-state battery.

In this way, Wu Hao and the others eat fatty meat, and they can also gnaw some bones or drink soup and the like.
