OptiXtal SuperXCaps
Ready to provide an energy blast to the future

OptiXtal SuperXcaps have many possible applications in complex systems like those found on the vessels of the new high tech US Navy. Because so many on-board mechanical functions are battery powered, the addition of OptiXtal SuperXcaps will make a big difference. Batteries will not only last a lot longer between recharges, they'll also last a lot longer between changeouts.

 

The principal benefit to the public in the development of renewable energy resources like wind turbines and solar panels will be reducing our dependence on fossil fuels. For this reason, developing improved methodologies for storing solar and wind generated energy is a high priority for this industry. Using OptiXtal SuperXcaps which can be charged in seconds and are far more effective at storing energy than batteries have earned a place in this industry and will have a bigger place in the future.

 

Low weight and dimensional flexibility are tremendously important attributes for any component specified for use in outer space. Unlike competitive capacitors, OptiXtal SuperXcaps are housed in a super tough, super light, super thin film. Plus they can be made to conform to any housing shape or application specification. Compared to the usual heavy, hard shell cylinders that house most other super capacitors … there is no comparison.

 

OptiXtal SuperXcaps now offer the world's smallest supercapacitor. This unit has a maximum voltage of 2.7V, a current maximum of 25mA, in a dimensional package that is just 8mm x 10mm x 1mm and weighs just 0.08 g. The low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance of 3Ω) means there's a minimal loss of energy during recharge. In addition to high functionality and reliability through hundreds of thousands of charge re-charge cycles these OptiXtal units squeeze into spaces where other super capacitors would never fit.

 

Pack a wallop! Again... And Again... And Again...

The new SuperXcap Capacitors from OptiXtal offer users 10 times the power of a battery based energy source. And because they are so efficient, SuperXcap Capacitors take up less space and reduce weight.

For ease of use they’re stackable and can be configured in series, parallel, or virtually any other configuration. Plus the SuperXcap flexibility and adaptability mean the need to change or alter design already in production is generally unnecessary.

Specifying OptiXtal SuperXcaps could lead to more garage door openings and closings, Longer lasting charges in cordless tool batteries, better performing hybrid cars, more reliable PIDs, or toys that actually keep up with the kids.

A round peg in a square hole?
OptiXtal solves a design problem.

Until now the round, battery-like shape of almost all competitive capacitors required wasteful voids in the architecture. That’s because the space set aside for capacitors is inevitably square. SuperXcap capacitors cut this waste of space, as well cutting excess weight while providing lots more power. They lay flat … go where you need them … fit in anywhere.
