>> I haven't seen the technical docs on TMTA's Long Run, but it sounds like you are overestimating the technology. <<
Actually, if I were forced to name one area in which TMTA has hyped Crusoe’s technology, it would be LongRun. In the overall scheme of Crusoe’s design, LongRun is but a bit player (pun intended) while CMS is the big star.
Notwithstanding that, it is clearly beneficial to have, say, 8 voltage states rather than only 2. So, at least for the time being, it’s reasonable to infer that Crusoe/Astro will retain some advantage in this regard. Dew
