High Tide develops highly efficient energy conversion technologies for use in commercial, consumer and military applications. High Tide's products work together to provide on-demand reliable power required for remote geographies, emergency situations, and mass adoption of mobile electronic devices.
Today, popular portable electronics are limited by their power sources. They have short operating times and require close proximity to a "last-wire" wall plug or car. Multiple devices all have unique, incompatible powering requirements. With new higher power mobile devices (cellphones, computers, A/V, GPS, etc.) these problems are growing worse. And technologies under development (solar, wind, fuel cells, TPV) will not currently meet these needs. Widespread consumer adoption of portable devices makes solving these power problems crucial.
High Tide develops unique energy harvesting products allowing
for direct drive and rapid, safe, charging of various battery types &
chemistries. High Tide's units require no consumables or special fuels,
and produce exceptionally high electrical power. These flexible architectures
achieve maximum compatibility with all devices, today and in the future.
