I clicked on their description of their new solar battery -- here is what they said:
"Our battery is a printed power source designed to be produced onto a thin, flexible material with Flexible Construction, which can thereafter be retrofitted onto printed solar panels and lighting.
"It is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and does not contain heavy metals. The batteries range in size and power and can be as small as one square inch and hold up to 250 volts."
Now, I am not an engineer, and I don't pretend to be an expert. But would you ordinarily describe a battery as being able to "hold 250 volts?" Wouldn't the description of capacity usually be in terms of amp/hours?
Maybe I am being too harsh here. I look forward to comments from folks who are more knowledgeable than I am.
