Default Plugging away in a Prius

The company Hybrid Plus, replaces the batteries from NiMH to Li, provides a plug up capability and adapts the signal received by the car's software to optimally manage the new battery capacity and chemistry.

Hopefully this isn't a duplicate post. I couldn't find any reference to this article with the search engine.
