<div>Subject: Re: [NSRCA-discussion] Lithium batteries news </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The article specifically mentions and 3X improvement in energy density, so that bodes extremely well for weight.  This almost feels too good to be true, but this group has led the path from the onset in battery technology, so there should certainly
 be optimism.  Just wonder what the time to market reality would be.
