What will this do to the recycling cost of the battery?

What are the implications for impact safety?

“Tastes Great! FOUR TIMES LESS COST!!”

Gahhh!! He may be a Nobel Prize winner, but he can’t hire a PR firm worth a damn.

Four times less cost.

Is that the same as 25% cheaper?

Who was that crazy guy who used to hang around and post the bogus nuclear energy engine propaganda all the time?

Far more entertaining than battery news.

There are no rare earths to mine and extract

LiIon batteries have never been based on rare earth material (that would be magnets), so what's the point here?

I figgur that 25% cheaper would be 75% of original cost.

Is $200 down to $50 = 75% cheaper???

Four times less cost is ambiguous.

Worse than any ‘story problem’.

But way more mathematically correct than Dem or Pub delegate calculations!

I think it's -300% of the competing product's price. What a deal!

Remember: the greater the energy density of a battery, the more it is like an explosive.

Why do the compare it with a “Tesla” battery since the Tesla battery is just a lithium-ion battery. Why not say “lithium ion”?
