RE:RE:RE:RE:Zinc8 has a new Demo Agreement at Data Centers Yes sfrancuz I mistyped and said universal rather than uninteruptible power supply. Nonetheless a UPS is usually a battery back up power supply especially as it pertains to data centers. For those who do not know what a UPS here is a relatively simple but decent explanation from wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply
Nonetheless, if you actually read the paid promotion news release it does not say that the ZincAir Battery will replace the generator and the UPS but rather that the UPS will still be required in line with the ZincAir battery. So I guess the ZincAir battery will only be used in a long term power outage to supply battery backup power to the shorter term UPS battery backup? What happens when the ZincAir battery runs out of power in a longer than planned duration power outage beyond the ZincAir battery capacity? Answer: there will once again be a mad rush to get a diesel or gasoline powered generator up and running.
In any case, Zinc8 still has not even proven they have a working product and we have had no word on any sort of progress on manufacturing of anything especially the cathodes which are apparently the critical top secret component that so far has not worked due to dendrite issues. I repeat - they so far do not even have 1 working demo product so how are we to believe they will have anything ready and working for the this demo installation?
All you investors and prospective investors should be asking for photographic or video evidence or actual production or production of components. If they cannot show a working product there should at least be evidence somewhere that they can show what they have been building or have built in the past 3 years. All we have so far is a picture of a seacan sitting somewhere in a backyard somewhere in Surrey, BC.
Zinc8 can make all the paid PR announcements they can afford but at some point they have to actual produce the goods. So far a lot of talk (paid hype and PR) and little results.
