FMK- Looks like there are only a few of us "hypsters" left after the scud missile hit Monday. Little did anyone know, it was a XMAS present. Don't you wish every day would start like this one? Up 5/8ths...almost back to 7. HC

Hi FMK, My estimate is that the co. is a month behind plan which would put the first POs in the 3rd week of Feb. Can you set forth any reasons, without telling too much, for the Jan estimate?

Anybody have a feel for the cost of Vanadium cathodes? Based on cost per watt hour, I am guessing that low cost manganese is not a component of current production. Also, the general drift has been that costly, toxic cobalt oxide is history. There are hints in the referenced patent that the new Vanadium oxide cathode is competitive with metallic lithium without the problems. This kind of performance probably doesn't come cheap. Just a guess.
