Nasa,

does anyone make a graphene battery yet? I haven't seen any production schedules or press releases for it..

One someone has a production schedule and an off-take, preferably with a price (% of spot or premium to spot price etc) I'll get more excited but I think things will move slower than that.. there are technical gaps in our current technology.

Some fun facts (that might make you think a little):

Tesla was formed in 2003!
it took 5 years to produce a car utilising a technology patented in 1888 (Roadster)
it took them 9 years, (2012) to launch the first truly commercial car (Model S)
The giga-factory won't reach full production until 2020 (at which point it will produce more lithium ion battery capacity than the entire world did in 2013).
The giga factory to date has produced less than 1000 batteries, none of which have been fitted into a Tesla car.

12 years and they have sold less cars in total worldwide than mazda 3 has sold in Australia in 2014 alone.
^Take that in for a moment before excluding my time-frame, I'm not being conservative, if anything 2020 would require aggressive expansion and technology adaption.
