For me this would get much more interesting once my 8 year warranty is up on my 2018 model 3 as I no longer have a warranty for Tesla to void (2 years left for me).
My 2013 S is long out of warranty and the battery is fading. A prime candidate for something like this. Twice, the battery has stranded the car with about 28 miles of estimated range left. Maximum guestimated range is down to about 230 (from 265). I recently took the opportunity to transfer that car's free SuperCharging to a new car; I have been using the 13 only locally both because the battery is not reliable and because FSD on other cars is so attractive.
Has Phil estimated demand for such a device? I'm sure he has a feel for the number of candidate vehicles out there. And the number he might be able to sell. I'm guessing sales could approach 10% of the candidates? I'm guessing the candidate pool is now ~10k but will soon expand to hundreds of thousands.
