Mills devotes a subchapter in the new version of his theory to Vanadium.
There are many easier ways to get oxygen into a reaction than vanadium
oxide, so it makes little sense that this would be a preferred carrier
-- unless vanadium was being used in its own right - operating as a
catalyst in a complementary way.
V is attractive in a number of other energy-related applications such as
batteries because it is stable in a range of positive multiple
ionization states without requiring redox reactions. There is some
interesting info online from companies using the element in flow
batteries and these are not redox.

Hi,
Apparently Mills uses LiVO3 as the source of Oxygen in his SunCell, where it
combines with H2 to form individual water molecules that catalyze the Hydrino
reaction.
This Oxide is also used as cathode material in Li ion batteries
(http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0378775313002401).
It's not a great stretch to imagine that it occasionally performs the same
function in a battery that it does in the SunCell, leading to a rapid increase
in heat energy & temperature due to Hydrino formation, and leading to battery
fires.
