Its a gen 0 product. Practically a prototype.

It doesn't use cobalt or lithium. It lasts 10x as long. It has a wider operating range in temperature.

It will definitely get cheaper. Seems like an excellent option for home energy storage. Who cares how heavy it is. Its just going to set there.

weight starts to matter more when it comes to tech that you want to carry with you, especially if said tech is in everything, so it compounds. the battery tech is much better suited like you said, for still installations, like home power walls for solar storage, as its weather resistant, last longer, and most importantly, doesnt spontaneously burst into flames.
