Future of esk8 battery design?

Last year Tesla announced their "tabless" 4860 sized battery. Their claim. 5x energy, +16% range, 6x the power over the 18650 cells. Designed for the power needs of an electric car. Wonder if the same battery design would work for esk8.

Personally I'm happy with the range and speed of the Evolve Bamboo GTR AT battery pack. Would upgrade if the new 4860 has greater life cycles and can deliver the same range, speed as the current battery in lighter packages.

Hopefully the next gen battery and power management system Evolve designs will be back compatible with our GTR generation boards.
