Don, here is an IM from SLM25 (frequents the AOL board).

SLM25:

"Could you tell Don that Varta indeed does produce NiMH . I saw them in the Zytek/Lotus Elise at EVS14"

Don, SAFT and Varta are dfinitely producing prismatics for EV's. Varta is working on a prismatic for the BMW stating lighting and ignition batteries.

I assume some of the Japanese and Asians are making prismatics as well but don't know which. The big surprise is the number of actual and test implementations with cylindrical cells. Why I even know of one evaluation being done with "C" cells but I shan't say which.
