Due to Zenn Motor Company's recent announcement of it's validation of EEStor's recent permittivity test results, we have learned that constituent materials of EEStor's energy storage system are operating in what's known as the paralectric phase in contrast to the widely predicted ferroelectric phase.
Dielectric Saturation was widely and emotionally delivered as the death knell to EEStor's prospects for delivering on it's claims. But this is a phenomena that does not occur in the paraelectric phase (except possibly at extremely high voltages).
What the hell does all of this mean? Quite simply this: if you poll the opinions of the EEStor skeptics over the past year, the #1 leading fundamental problem they had with EEStor's claims was that it would suffer from the effects of Dielectric Saturation. They were all wrong. All wrong.
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAAHAAHAAHAAH!!!!!! So laugh it up believers, you earned it!
What do the skeptics at TheEEStory.com have to say about this? Strangely little.

@Mark, do you "guarantee" that they will? The guys are being extremely warm-hearted posting the weakenesses in the EESU story thus far. They have far less reason to be here than the people who buy the story and yet they are really more valuable.
Nothing is a guarantee in science. But well tested theories point to this being an unattainable energy density. That's what he said in his posts.
Well as one of the "strangely little" posting skeptics perhaps you would like to read my extensive posts on the subject? Ferroelectric is associated with high k and low saturation filed, paraelectric with lower k and higher saturation field. And IBLC could trade k for filed - magnifying k at thecost of magnifying field as well. The end result is the same - they can't win.
To have what they said a long time ago and have since refused to get measured (energy density) they would nned 20,000 k at 350V/um. All they have measured is 20,000 k at 0V.
I can guarantee that those black hockey pucks will either have breakdown well below 350V/um or severely reduced k at 350V/um.
(The mechanism for such k reduction, which involves partial breakdown of the dielectric, is a theoretical possibility and not the same as saturation).
But the energy limits remain what they have always been
"I can guarantee that those black hockey pucks will either have breakdown well below 350V/um or severely reduced k at 350V/um. "
I think the black hockey pucks are black hockey pucks ;0
More importntly do you "guarantee" that an EESU will not be able to hold 350V/um or will k will degrade below 20,000 @350V/um ??
