Our Ford F150 Lightning Killed This Ohmmu Battery!

Back at the end of last year, we installed Ohmmu batteries in both Nikki's 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV and her 2023 Ford F150 Lightning. Ohmmu's batteries - available as LiFePo and NaCl models - offer alternatives to 12-Volt lead-acid battery packs for EVs. lighter, and less susceptible to the usual issues associate with 12-volt sealed batteries in EVs, we were eager to see what they could offer. But while the battery we placed in the Bolt is happily doing everything it should, the F150 Lightning's NaCl battery is no more, after it was killed by the truck. Here's what you should know - and why it happened. ---- 00:00 - Introduction 01:43 - A quick reminder about Ohmmu 02:42 - The particular problem of 12V batteries in EVs 04:34 - The LiFePo battery in the Bolt - Doing Great! 05:39 - No winter test to talk about 07:05 - A quick note on the struts we added. 08:24 - F150 Lightning - NaCL killer? 09:17 - The original 12V battery was blowing 10:48 - Why did it die? 14:58 - Yes, it's dead 17:03 - Thanks, and Goodbye! --- Links: - Watch the first video on Ohmmu - https://youtu.be/nkoPESHbzv8 Find out about Ohmmu at - https://www.ohmmu.com PLEASE help support the channel (if you are going to use Amazon) by using our Affiliate link: https://amzn.to/40xOyjm As amazon affiliates, we will earn money from qualifying purchases made using this code. ----- Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC675NhQ4EU5TzwCMwYp5XCw/join This video was made possible thanks to the kind donations of our supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi.
