The 2012 Camry synergy battery (nickel hydride) is still a low capacity unit, and is fast-in/fast-out. The 18650 Li Ion cell I believe was the...
Received a message from Tesla a month or so back. Their boat interests are for high speed.
closing this thread for lack of interest Good designing, building, and boating to you all!
