Thanks.
And I certainly wasn't thinking they would replace undersea cables. That seems to be a no-brainer that they'd be the way to go whenever possible. I was just curious if they'd be economical as a supplement, or for locations where running a cable wouldn't make sense (such as smaller islands).
Sounds like without some radically new battery chemistries to crank up the density, it wouldn't make much sense.

No problem, the military might be interested in the concept tough.
