The cells as structural member is what they started doing in e-bikes last couple years but taking it another step.

Cool, but means upgrading your pack would require deep surgery.

FWIW - this was mainly an empty event. The manufacturing and innovations are great, but nothing about how the battery technology applies to the products already announced.

There was a ton of information on how it applies...

...But no specs, if that's what you mean.

Well there we go - if I heard them right I shouldn't/don't need to wait for my Cybertruck for V2H (even though they were talking V2G). Perhaps battery wall is in my future.

I watched the presentation, but got bored with the redundant questions towards the end and left the site.

I did like what Tesla will do to make the batteries cheaper, better, and use less of a process. Since I'm number 235K-ish, I have time to wait for the new style batteries. So my CT will fly down the highway and get more mileage before the cops get me. :cool:

So Tesla is moving to No Pack, while others like Rivian are still designing their first packs.
