Re: Elementary dear readers

Indeed. All the comments of "but efficiency" or "battery weight" why are we not happy with a technical demonstrator/research test-bed being used to move the state of the art forward? It's not like any of the partners in this process are saying that they are going to start mass producing this configuration for commercial operations. It is an attempt to develop the technology, and demonstrate it's feasibility.
