add: thanks for posting the article. it confirms that plenty of financing should be available to vlnc, viz. 'entrepreneurs are interested in investing in it'.
am i afraid the Japanese will huff and puff and blow Valence away? Please explain the logic of why you think i should (a little detailed analysis please, not just run around and shout logic). 'they have more money and they're big companies with lots of mfg experience so how could anybody ever compete with them?'
we know that vlnc has the production process working. If you doubt that you should be long gone outta here. No sense even talking about it.
In case you hadn't noticed, times are not so good in Japan and the yen is very high too. I really doubt that Sony or Sanyo can drive vlnc out of business by selling at a loss. Competition will drive margins down, but from what we have heard in the valence CCs, we can expect very low mfg costs. I guess mr. darnell was not listening and has not grasped that it's much cheaper to roll out li-poly than to can li-ion. Hell, even i have been able to pick that much up and I'm just an investulator, not a professional battery bullshitter. Go figure.
If they were already in production, I could believe that they might be able to conspire with the Japanese national bureaucracy to keep VLNC out of the Japanese market. That game has been played before. It's a lot harder now, tho.
We do know where Valence is in developing the mfg process. Nobody knows how long it will take the Japanese.
Are you thinking about investing in a business, or is this just a game of hype to you? I'm not going to bother to answer any more silly posts unless you show the power to come up with something more intelligent than this kind of 1 line bs shot as though it's some kind of trump card.
I've said it before. Only a fool pays attention to the braying donkey. Well, fool me twice, shame on me.... |
