I like these numbers much better than mine. Taken from the YHOO thread to our friend Larry. Expletives deleted.
"Klockner makes (is making) 20 cells a minute, lets make big ones...4x4 inchers.
1200 per hour 24 hours a day = 28,800 6 days a week = 172,800 52 weeks = 8,985,600
Lets say 6 cells per battery (the Big one)
1,497,600 batteries.
Let say 65% are good
973,440 good ones
Per specs 18.5 watt hours / battery
18,008,640 watt hours
$2.50 per watt hour....(quantity discount...LOL!!)
$45,021,600
and I gave them Sunday off, and I only gave them the old machine to play with...
Now lets turn on the Arcotronics...
In yesterdays CC some analyst named 'Larry' tried to get Lev to extrapolate the number of batteries that the lines THEORETICALLY could produce by next September (presumably 24x7), and then tried to extrapolate earnings based on the number of watt hours x $3 x number of cells.
Lev thought he was being 'dim'... like you..." |
