SCIB (Super Charge Ion Battery) TBP Series 24 V 4.2 Ah[1]

SCIB (Super Charge Ion Battery) is a fast-charging battery, designed to recharge to 90% capacity[2] within 10 minutes.

The new battery developed by Toshiba could support 5 000 to 6 000 charge cycles and would be safer than classical Li-ion batteries. It does however have a huge drawback; it can only hold 48 Wh/Kg (compared to 150-180 Wh/Kg for ordinary Li-Ion batteries). With other words this isn't a battery which would power a elecric car for any longer than 80 kilometers (assuming the car is outfitted with a 20 KWh battery pack with a weight of 417 Kg.)<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.toshiba.com/csrpub/upload/page/100253/toshiba_environmentally_conscious_products.pdf%7C

Toshiba Corporation announced on 24 December 2008 plans to construct a new dedicated production facility for its safe, long-life rapid charge SCiB battery, in anticipation of strong future demand. By setting up a second production facility Toshiba expects to position itself for a surge in demand for SCiB for industrial and automotive applications from fiscal year 2010 on. Toshiba aims to start construction of the new facility in the Fall of 2009, and to start production in Fall 2010.
