    Honestly, $70 for 9,000 mAh for cutting edge battery tech isn’t as much as I’d expect. That was about the going rate when we first started seeing portable battery banks being sold as a dedicated item. For obvious reasons, this won’t be something the average person gets, but it exists and it’s no longer just in labs.

    Not to mention, the improvements in longevity and temperature range were benefits I wasn’t aware of. Exciting!

      If it really last for a decade without significant degradation or the other components failing, it could be cheaper in the long run rather over the semi frequent replacements of Lithium Ion over the same time frame.
