Some highlights I noticed:

"We are already working on the second generation battery and getting the same 40 miles out of a battery pack that is half the size" (suggests 100% SOC utilisation to me)

"cell chemistries in gen II will be different"

Looks like Gen2 is the one to get excited about.

Good progress. For an old dog.
