Jon, This it the state of business today. They probably are writing it down! You are free R&D for this company. They really should pay you for your efforts or at least provide more information so you can work together for a better charge algorithm. I went through this same excercise with Horizon batteries and Chrysler. I wrote a charge algorithm one Sunday at home for the price of a nice Fluke 87 multimeter. They didn't know exactly what they wanted, but they could give me some guidelines and hope I reported some reliable data. It turns out the sealed Horizon batteries were crap in my opinion. Looking at the data I've seen so far those Zinc batteries are quite impressive. With a little effort they should work very well. Hey, what the heck, give them my name, I will throw some in the TEVan and write some software for my charger and see how they work out on my vehicle :-) Rod
