The Flywheel Capacitor uses the same, proven and patented, high-speed flywheel
technology as other Flybrid® products. Rotating at up to 60,000 RPM the
very small flywheel can store enough energy to make a significant
impact on vehicle performance and emissions.
This technology allows a range of features unmatched by the competition:
• High power capability
• Light weight and small size
• Long system life
