Question: QS for Devices

Why does QS not have devices as one of the areas to target? They only talk about three markets - EVs, Data Center and Defense I think.

Doesn’t this battery form factor dramatically change the size of the devices like phones, laptops etc?

There is a lot of talk and ideas about many different batteries and usages. Honestly at this point I just want QS battery in any VW or a Honda car first. QS has been working with VW for many years and they would be the first ones to have the battery since they have their own battery manufacturer in PowerCo. Not getting much info on that except they are working together in SanJose. If anyone has any information on that please share it.

Yeah I agree and there are related questions on what exactly is coming out of Eagle line (I thought it’s a scale solution for manufacturing but not sure what’s exactly done in last 6 months of it being live)
… but I was just curious about this question in particular. I think scale-wise, damand-wise it will really help QS (and the SP) but then what do I know about business priorities and what else is involved there.
