Graphene in fuses and cost

Synergistic research is using a  technology thst is finally cost effective in their fuses very little is used and see the pricing    https://www.graphene4u.com/product-page/graphene-5-10-layer-powder-1gr       Synergistic with all the hype and Millions of dc Tesla volts 
$150 for s fuse is well over $100+ profit for someone. Hopefully the competition will start using 
In the mean time the Hifi tuning Supreme are a big step up over stock fuses for s fraction of the Synergistic cost. The price should have been no higher ,maybe lower .
But Synergistic is built on Hype and  half truths built up information PT Barnum would be proud  !!
The link prove the cost it has come way down and Graphene prices are dropping  as more
People  are now using Grapine from Semiconductors to capacitors  now fuses and  many other 
Things . Nicola Tesla would be totally pissed off his vision of free electricity now using his Tesla 
Coil as a selling tool .  Be a smart buyer  !!

My link was removed ,but if you look up Graphine  many  are now selling even in small quantities. Just do a search ..graphene was 
Discovered decades ago in the U.K  only recently has it been cost effective to produce. This is why using Graphene is No longer expensive ,and to charge Big $$ is not being truthfull for a product 
Added to metal to enhance its conductivity. These should be under $100 Tops. It is your money.

Actually, it’s not added to metal at all, not to increase the conductivity or for any other reason.

Graphene has to  be adhered to something in the electrical element 
Since it is a product of Carbon ribbon . 

Electricity flows very quickly through the simple honeycomb sheet. Most conductors we encounter are metals, yet graphene is based on carbon, a nonmetal. This allows for the development of electricity to flow under conditions where we might not want a metal. What conditions would those be? We are only just beginning to answer that question!

GRAPHENE CAN BE USED TO MAKE VERY SMALL DEVICES.

Graphene conducts so much electricity in so small a space that it may be used to develop miniaturized super fast computers and transistors. These devices should require a minuscule amount of power to support them.

Graphene is flexible, strong and transparent, too.

It is not expensive to implement . But on these Audio pages it is totally magnified
It's uses are valued, but not the cost. If you want to   give up $150 per fuse go for it it is your money . Myself will wait until next year .others will be following suit in several areas even in circuit boards semiconductors,capacitors . I just dislike a lot of the BS to make a buck. How about charging less and making more $$ in Volume ?
Thst would make 10x more sense and far more people would be willing to 
Try it. That makes much more sense to most Audiophiles .

It was not discovered decades ago, 2012. I understand your point, free market will decide.
More to discover
