I do not have much information yet (I haven't talked to this company in months), but they started posting teasers on their facebook page for a new solar generator:

From facebook post:
- "Not only is the Flex a game changer when it comes to lithium expansion, but we have opened the doors for solar charging. On board the Flex control unit is a 12-90VDC MPPT charge controller, allowing you to charge with a huge variety of solar panels."
- "We’re just going to come right out and say it, the Inergy Flex is... MODULAR
Yes, you read that right, modular. The Flex Modular System consists of both an advanced, intelligent Flex control unit AND the extremely smart and powerful Lithium-ion Flex battery."
- "We know you’ve been wondering, so let’s just cut to the chase. Yes, the Flex battery is the Lithium Expansion Battery that is compatible with BOTH the Kodiak and Apex."
- It has the same exact "stackable expansion battery" design as the Point Zero Titan. I hope point zero energy patented that design or else everyone will copy it.
- Looks like they got rid of the Apex power switch and reverted to the Kodiak power switch. Smart idea actually. That "new" switch was horrible.
- It states the solar input voltage will be 90V! Which is awesome, but it looks like they are using EC8 plugs still.... Can they handle that voltage? I had some arcing problems at 80V with that plug in the past. That plug is a shock danger when used for high voltage. I cannot find a EC8 plug data sheet, so I am unsure.
- All we have is renderings. Inergy is great at making products look great, running a pre-sale, running lots of ads etc. But we will have no idea what the quality of this unit is until we see it in person.
