Ladies and Gentlemen:
We refer to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed on the date hereof by Twin Vee Powercats Co., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to the registration of up to an aggregate of 428,400 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), that may be issued pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
We have examined originals or certified copies of such corporate records of the Company and other certificates and documents of officials of the Company, public officials and others as we have deemed relevant or appropriate for purposes of this opinion letter.

We have also assumed that all of the shares eligible for issuance under the Plan following the date hereof will be issued for not less than par value.
Based upon, and subject to, the foregoing, it is our opinion that the 428,400 Shares, when sold and issued in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and the Registration Statement and the related prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The opinions in this opinion letter are qualified in their entirety and subject to the following:

We assume herein no obligation, and hereby disclaim any obligation, to make any inquiry after the date hereof or to advise you of any future changes in the foregoing or of any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention. |
We consent to the reference to this firm as your counsel in the Registration Statement and to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
