Putting asided for a moment whether it was 1800 cells or 1800 batteries per day, Lev definitely used $2.50/Wh as his break-even price.

A 3-cell battery from VLNC has between 34 and 50 Wh, depending on where the spec really is right now. So that means Lev needs $85 to $125 per battery to break even, whatever the number produced per day is. Sorry, but no way would $50 per battery "clearly provide for breakeven operation," as you assert. Don't you see why I am perplexed about the claim that line 1 alone will turn a profit?
