170 is around 150% > the current (so I am told) typical output of the li-ion cells currently being sold at 115 wt hr/kg.

My understanding is that the li-polymer cells have a 20-25% weight advantage over the li-ion cells, and that Valence is now sending to OEMs cells with a 120 wthr/kg capacity (effecitvely 150 wthr/kg vis a vis comparable li-ion cells.

So if you are a li-ion producer without the capability to move quickly into li-polymer, you have a tremendous incentive to license the Valence cathodes and remain competitive up to the 170-1809 wthr/kg level.
