    With the few morsels we have of info about demand and ready acceptance with the trucking industry, the demand for epower retrofits could explode.

    From JP's comment above and previous comments, there already seems to be a waiting list for companies that want a shot at trying the retrofit. Once hard data comes out on the actual fuel savings there could be even greater demand. Since epower is using off the shelf components to build these prototypes, any trucking company could buy one and begin to try to produce their own. As a small company, epower will have its hands full trying to fill demand and protect its IP. Their ace in the hole is the PbC battery and Axion's BMS! Plenty of companies would be able to use off the shelf products to duplicate everything but the batteries!

    I believe the trucking companies will be screaming for epower trucks. Epower will have to allow other companies to help in the rebuild of these trucks (which I understand was the original plan). It is in their best interest to have Axion as the exclusive supplier of their batteries to help protect against other companies stealing their idea and selling it on a mass scale.

    Its good to hear Axion chatter for a change rather than everything else!

    A little more brisk trading this morning with 101,000 shares and only 700 shares below .31.

    Could this graph be correct showing Axion with 8.1 million in revenues for 2012?

    Don't know if this has been posted before. I found an American company with the Rosewater Hub as one of its offerings.

    It is Bethesdasystems that offers electrical controls and home theater. At the time of this post it is not listed as a partner on Rosewater's site.

    Hey guys,

    I really appreciate your detailed analysis. I am beginning to catch on to some of it. But even without it, just looking at the simple price graph of the past twelve months gives reason to smile. It's easy to see that the inflection point may be a month and a half in the rear view mirror!

    Sounds like Axion's management has had the wisdom to avoid IP minefields in many different forms.

    I see a lot of unnecessary panic in response to the JCI announcement of a S/S BMW prototype.

    First of all, it confirms the lengthy time it has taken Axion to reach fleet testing with BMW. Even JCI expects to have to take several years for its product to be adopted.

    Second, I did not notice a partnership with BMW. The test car was a rebuilt BMW. I skimmed the article because I don't have much time right now so I may have missed something.

    Third, it appears that JCI is trying to tell everyone what it is going to do since its huge investment in AGM battery production will not fill the need for the huge market of S/S batteries. It may be that JCI has lost out on negotiations with Axion and some other manufacturer has agreed to work with Axion to provide PbC batteries. It is in high gear doing damage control.

    Fourth, unless I missed it in my quick read, BMW has not done a joint announcement with JCI. Even if they did, BMW is working with all battery technologies in order to make sure it catches the wave.

    Fifth, nothing has changed with all the potential markets for Axion. This announcement by JCI has not affected what we already know.
