new battery techology, seems like a nice cocept,although I would image it would take a while for the price to be realistic for use on smaller craft

1.00 Euro = 1.41 U.S. Dollars

5000 x 1.41 = $7050.00

How much sence does it make now.

I could see the cost justification if you were cruising the world and without regular trusted power sources and maybe a few scenarios in third world countries. It is a cool concept and will have its place someday......

But until then I will have to buy a few cases of beer and feed them to the local boaters that have more money than brains and see if one of them purchases it just to beat out their dock neighbor. 8) you may laugh but I have witnessed this more than a few times, and even saw some whole new boats come of it. Never me of course...... :oops:
