AutoblogGreen Q&A with Firefly Energy co-founder Mil Ovan on new lead-acid battery tech: 3D2 {Autoblog Green}

Jan 16th 2007 4:46PM Hi Mil,
Just as David R. Posted - the EV enthusiast has a great need for this battery technology, probably much more than previously considered, as their budgets to go with Li-Ion, Li-Po, or other exotic Battery Chemistries is often far mor limited that major players (Lotus-Tesla Motors, T-Zero, Etc.), and are often an overlooked (underlooked?) excellent market force, due to the typical realities of simplicty required for a home enthusiast conversion, for which the concept of going from the current standard PbA batteries to yours as a means to improve performance, would allow your company thousands of ready made promoters around the USA and Canada.
I for one would like to seriously consider use of your battery, and am awaiting a direct email reply on this application for my car - shown at www.aircraft-domputational.com/electricfly - a simple 1994 conversion by Highschool Students that is still in service, and currently in need of batteries. I am ready to buy if your company is ready to sell - at a price point below Li-Ion/Li-Po, of course.
