Charging cycles

[wood56]

Does anyone know the number of charge/discharge cycles 
without significant degradation before this chemistry of SiOx
is considered as commercial? I realize the chemistry will change and be adjusted as this process continues but just wondering what the goal is. Looks promising so far

Lithium-ion batteries generally have a cycle of 6000, this means the battery can discharge and charge 6000 times before degradation. A lead-acid battery generally has 2000 cycles. The remaining capacity in a battery is called 'ageing index'. The ageing index means the decrease of the capacity during the cycle life. ?

Lithium batteries have to be charged between a low of  20%  to a maximum of 80 % .....for maximum battery life....You're not supposed to drain these batteries below 20 %     or  charge them above 80 %....for maximum battery life...How many user's do this ???...how many people even know this ?. ...I'm predicting we will have sales of Si metal  or

Thanks CrazyProphet, sounds like this testing process is goiuto take a while
