Yeah, I only have 7 KW, not 40 some!

I remember when I was talking to the Tesla salesman. I was just BLOWN AWAY by the capacity of their battery pack.

I did enjoy MetroMPG comparing the Tesla vs our budget homebrews on $/mile! Guess who won!?

I think we are ALL interested in better battery technology, but price is a HUGE deal breaker!
