ZYOUNG,
I understand the patent - it is simple but brilliant
I think they need to make their own panels to really see the potential; however, they could license the patent to panel makers and have something like a royalty stream. That would be faster than scaling up to make their own panels(their long term goal).
Did he speak to manufacturing their own own panels (could possibly take a year to scale up and fine tune in my opinion)
It was a shame that the first patent was denied. I do not think it is utilized by a manufacturer - am I correct on this ? Someone cornered the idea with a patent and did not bring it forth - correct ? I think that SSOL had a one - two punch with both of them.
I have seen before where a company has patented an idea, but could not bring the idea into a practical manufacturing environment.
Disclosure: Sold all mine a while back, looking to get more. Watching this one closely
