It’s like making a car engine from 100% enviro friendly material that still uses petrol to power it and calling it green.

Who would buy that now? I think I’ll just wait until it goes on sale, or I’ve got some spending money!

Not even looking at it from a environmental viewpoint, this makes good financial sense in the long run. If this battery really will last twice as long as normal batteries, it’s a better use of my money.

It isn’t A LOT more expensive so I think people will buy it, I just hope they don’t try to mark it up too much to try to take advantage of green consumers.
