In this episode of the Vicor Powering Innovation Podcast, host Steve Germino interviews JD Schwalm, founder and CEO of Revolt, a company revolutionizing clean mobile power solutions. Schwalm shares his journey from mechanical special effects work in the entertainment industry to developing battery-powered alternatives to diesel generators. Revolt's product lineup includes the WeVault (17 kWh), the Mule (200 kWh), and the Canavan (440 kWh charging van), all designed to provide clean, quiet power for film sets, construction sites, and disaster relief operations. The conversation covers the technical advantages of their systems, including superior power quality, significantly reduced noise levels (under 30dB vs 80-90dB for diesel), and zero emissions. Schwalm discusses their rental-based business model, partnerships with major studios like Netflix, Warner Brothers, and Disney, and their use of Vicor power modules for efficient voltage conversion from 800V battery systems down to control voltages. The interview highlights innovations like eliminating precharge resistors using bidirectional power modules and the company's focus on continuous improvement and reliability in mission-critical applications.
