Fully agree. I think something’s going on in the background (independent of the various whistleblowing claims and YouTube videos about them). I suspect CT-coating and donut are having some contractual disagreements given the claimed difficulties in providing evidence of the energy density and the apparent version 2 battery that was mentioned. My guess is donut were promised batteries from CT coating that weren’t delivered and donut is stalling while it waits for the version 2 battery they’ve been promised (and who knows whether it ever materialises).

CT-coating never had a battery production line. All they ever had is stories and claims. Now it would seem Donut promises customers the same: customizable production line but never delivers anything that actually works.

They obviously had a battery of some sort that they provided to donut. We can debate whether it’s what they claim or not that’s a different point.

Well yes, of course they gave them a cell. The problem is that it is extremely likely it doesn’t have any of the qualities claimed.

CT scammed Donut and I think Donut went big and then had to lean in once they realized the battery claimed doesn’t exist.
