With the tools that we have in-house, we perform cell, module, pack, and system level testing. We perform safety and abuse testing at the cell level in-house; safety and abuse testing above the cell level is performed at trusted partner facilities. We have hundreds of channels of lower current cell cyclers (10A/30A, 0 to 5 V) and higher current cell cyclers (150 A, 0 to 18 V). In addition, many channels of module cyclers (30 kW) and pack/system cyclers (135 kW to 250 kW) are utilized. Additionally, all cell cyclers are equipped with environmental chambers with temperature ranges of -68°C to +180°C. Larger environmental chambers, including a walk-in chamber, are available for module, pack, and system testing.
