That's actually pretty cool. The whole carbon / graphite additive intrigued me, so I operated an Exide AGM with graphite in psoc operations and was impressed with the curve, although I didn't take the battery to destruction.
I'm glad to see Trojan getting actively involved, and this is a first for me to see it in flooded format. For a few years the whole carbon / graphite additive seemed to be aimed primarily at the micro-hybrid stop/start vehicles, and wondered if the same tech would end up on flooded and a direct aim at the RE market as well.
The last I remember of this type of tech was what, Axion (NOT Aquion!) and a few others too. Wonder what happened there...
As much as I like lifepo4, the carbon / graphite tech for lead is something I'd look long and hard at with RE for sure.
