Any novel battery design needs exhaustive tests en mass to be declared viable. Battery design is temperamental and quirky. Give this design a few years to proof itself or fall off the edge of the earth. Personally I do not care for at all tubular design flooded batteries. The risk benefit ratio becomes skewed and in my opinion the negatives far outweigh any positive notes.
The big issue with flooded lead acid batteries is that too few companies invest the time and money to make a truly fine product. Cheap materials and sloppy workmanship creates a product that encourages pie-in-the-sky thinking to find a miracle rather than fix what's wrong. R &D is great but as an expert in shovelling money down a deep dark hole I shall remain a doubter. Prove it is my battery design mantra. Flexible mylar reflective panels used to concentrate sun light is a viable energy source.
When that artcle stated TUBULAR GEL what little hair I have stood up straight. No small feat. Time will tell
