Any merit to the work performed by www.thehybridshop.com?

On this and other hybrid forums, the topic of battery replacement invariably comes up.  Most likely none of us will ever have a problem with our batteries, but if we do, what options do we have? Purchase a new battery at a high cost. Purchase a used battery and take your chances.  But what about The Hybrid Shop (www.thehybridshop.com)?  If our capacity really tails off, will the service they perform really make a difference?

 

Just curious what everyone thinks, thanks!!

I sent them an email to inquire about that.  Here is their response:

 

Hello Mike,

 

Currently, we are only conditioning NIMH batteries…and there are a few reasons why:

·         Capacity can be added to NIMH batteries…capacity CAN NOT be added to lithium…at least with today’s technology.

·         Most vehicles with lithium batteries likely have 5 years + left in their manufacturer’s warranty

·         We think that in the next 5 years, technology will provide the solution to the lithium capacity element…our tech team is already working on it
