Thanks for the link. I'm impressed. It is as if we are going full circle with a radically improved Edison cell hybrid. The architecture of the cell, dry production and anode cathode materials are key take aways. I was unable to watch the entire presentation, however I was under the impression silicon and nickel were the primary cell components.

Please correct me if I was misinformed about this.

Not sure we got all the info we might like from Musk et al. Reducing heavy metals in battery design is clearly important to them, but they also spoke of the acquisition of mining rights for lithium in a large clay-based deposit in Nevada. The use of silicon nanofibers was also speculated on but not confirmed by them.
