Hi Jason,

What you’ve asked isn’t unreasonble but mostly, we’re seeing explorations into the technology where 1-10 of your metrics aren’t easily answered or will change with manufacturing process as production comes on online.

That said, happy to take the feedback on board and get as many answered as possible while reviewing fundraising rounds.

Best, Tristan.

1. Energy density by weight.
2. Energy density by volume.
3. Power density (i.e., C rating).
4. Cycle life.
5. Cost.
6. Operable temperature range.
7. In-out efficiency.
8. Energy loss over time.
9. Use of available/exotic materials.
10. Dangers (toxicity, flammability, battery management finickiness, recyclability).
