We are building VENDOR.Max
VENDOR.Energy is the engineering project of MICRO DIGITAL ELECTRONICS CORP S.R.L., developing VENDOR.Max — a nonlinear electrodynamic installation operating in a controlled discharge-resonant regime. VENDOR.Max is being developed for deployment at infrastructure sites that run off-grid or under weak-grid conditions. Project stage: TRL 4 — Prototype Rebuild After Relocation. The next stage of the programme is independent external validation.
One installation and the programme that brings it to maturity
Current development and validation work is concentrated on VENDOR.Max. Testing, patent protection and certification preparation are built around this installation.
The target environment is the infrastructure site, where continuity of supply today depends on a combination of grid connection, fuel delivery and field service: telecom sites off-grid and on weak grids, edge computing infrastructure, and utility and water operations.
The programme takes the installation from laboratory development through independent external validation and towards the applicable certification route. Public statements at each stage separate what is measured, what is calculated and what has not yet been established independently.
Site continuity depends on more than energy availability
An infrastructure site stays in service while several external conditions hold at once: the grid is available, fuel arrives, consumable components are obtainable and field service can reach the site. The longer that list, the less predictable the site becomes.
The aim of the programme is to reduce the number of external conditions on which continuity of supply at an individual site depends. How far and in which scenarios this is achievable is the subject of the validation programme.

What is on record and where to look
Every position below is owned by a dedicated page. The underlying evidence remains with those records.
| Area | Where to look |
|---|---|
| Technology readiness stage — TRL 4 — Prototype Rebuild After Relocation | System status |
| Endurance testing | Endurance test |
| Patent position | Patent portfolio |
| Verification protocol: boundary, levels, criteria | Technology validation |
| Cost of ownership | Economics |
Technical observations and endurance data relate to internal laboratory testing of the pre-relocation prototype. Following relocation, the installation is being rebuilt on a new component base, and the current validation unit is under assembly. Patent status is evidenced by documents from the respective patent offices. Independent external validation is a separate next stage of the programme.
Who is responsible for what
Inventorship and patent rights are separate categories, and neither is derived from the composition of the team.
Vitaly Peretyachenko
Co-Founder, CEOArchitectural integrity of the system, boundaries of testability, patent strategy, and the alignment of engineering, regulatory and economic constraints.
Oleg Krishevich
Co-Founder, CTOPower architecture and electrical topology of the installation, protective interlocks, and fault response scenarios.
Oleg Schnaider
System ArchitectHardware architecture of control and synchronisation blocks, FPGA implementation, signal integrity and timing behaviour.
Named inventors and patent rights holders are listed on the patent portfolio.
Four rules
These four hold across the programme and are not traded against schedule.
- Safety is built into the architecture
- Safety, protection and certification requirements are addressed in the design rather than added at the certification stage.
- Failure is assumed in advance
- Every subsystem is designed with its characteristic failure modes in view.
- Not measured, not claimed
- Public statements separate measured observations, calculated positions and what has not yet been established independently. What is established and what is not, we state equally plainly.
- We design for the full lifecycle
- Service life, maintenance and end-of-life requirements are considered during development, not deferred until market entry.
