Hi Add, reposted, courtesy, Mooter... John Curtis (4836 ) From: mooter775 Wednesday, Nov 11 1998 1:59PM ET Reply # of 8160 I am pretty confident that Lev said 1,800 batteries per day. Fred knows the calculations, but as I recall, at $ 2.50 per watt hour one can justify north of $ 80 per laptop battery. Using $ 75 per laptop battery, then 1,800 per day implies annual revenue of > $ 40 mm. And given a 60% gross margin, one can reasonably justify cash flow breakeven.

Another repost; courtesy, FMK Paul M. Klemencic (4926 ) From: FMK Thursday, Nov 12 1998 10:07PM ET Reply # of 8162 Hi Paul, I just got a clarification on batteries vs. cells. Lev intended to say batteries. Line 1 should therefore break the company even by producing 1800 laptop batteries per day. IMO this means that one shift per day (2500 batteries est) would be more than profitable. I agree that 30 watt-hr x $2.50 per watt hour, or $75 revenue per battery is reasonable. Regards, FMK
