QS has come a long way since those days. The PROVEN AOTis here to stay. Good to see engineer Gallagher has got the previous issues fixed as per the FACTS in public filings. This company has been written off many times but has always bounced back. Common sense tells me it's close to success.
As stated in our previous “July Upcoming Component Testing” update, we anticipated that by August we would be conducting the component testing. As of August 8, 2022, we completed a successful component test. All parts arrived from our vendors last week and we built the stack assembly. All the parts fit as designed with no surprises.
The stack assembly performed as expected. We were able to apply the maximum voltage of the power supply to the stack assembly when submerged in oil. With this updated design, the power supply did NOT shut down due to arcing nor shorting which occurred with the previous design during various testing regimes. We achieved exactly what we hoped to and will now proceed to the hydrostatic test.
Cecil Bond Kyte said “I could not be happier with the results. We have validated the design changes which addressed the problems identified in the component testing of the prior design and I am looking forward to a positive hydrostatic test. We did what we said we would do and will continue to do so.”
