Thanks for chiming in! Batteries and charging are complicated as is, when translated into Journalist they get even more so :)

There was a lot of concern with the first generation EV's about battery life, a lot of which the data has shown to be misguided now that the first gen's are coming off-lease. How long is the process to convince the OEMs this won't degrade their battery packs?

Sounds like you know the struggle :)

In the battery industry there's a saying; liar liar battery supplier. That definitely doesn't help things move fast!

Automotive OEMs do move slowly, but once they see value things definitely speed up - A lot of it has to do with being in front of the right people.
