OK, it's just a laboratory development and needs to work it's way through
all the R&D to become an actual product. But, an order of magnetude
improvement? WOW!

Of course, as many 'negative experts' will point out, if this thing shorts

This won't work in small aircraft but Toshiba has a new gadget that
should work for the big boys.
