Will Li-ion battery companies let that happen? They want profit, which means they want to keep the high battery cost.

Oil & Gas companies didn't want Solar, Wind, and Storage to proliferate, yet they did because of cost savings.

I think we could start to see that for these alternative-ion batteries if lithium supply ever becomes an issue. There will always be a niche that has the opportunity to grow in the economy. Just takes the right circumstances and preparation

True, but gotta see. Currently these companies are so minor.
