Those are pretty cool. I could see where they would be invaluable in some areas of the world.

Just checked with someone who ordered one. The 2 watt version is only 3mm thick.

I can easily see this being mounted between the front fender and the running lights. I'll have to do some more research, but it looks like a great way to keep the battery up to snuff 24/7.

Not sure it is suitable for the glass-mat or jell-cell batteries.

I know you cannot use a pulse charger on a Shorai or a Ballistic.It screws up the balance on the "ION" batteries.
