Ok, but you will then get a higher profit per battery. I was just trying to keep expectations down!

You might want to round my 8000 per day down a little further to 7500 per day or 2500 per shift.

I have started up process equipment in many different types of industrial plants. Once bugs are worked out, 7 days per week and 3 shifts are not uncommon. For the first 3 months at a tire plant implementing equipment with new concepts, the machinery was shut down for 2 or more shifts every weekend for adjustments and repairs. After six months it became 1 shift a week.

I have been in paper plants that run 24 hrs per day and shut down only on Christmas and 4th of July.
