I’ll believe it when I can buy a car or a laptop with a solid state battery.

I'd be happy to buy a big, bulky, heavy, early version of any of these batteries for my house, as long as it's affordable, high capacity, and has a good cycle life.

It doesn't even have to fit in a car, it can be the size of a shed. Hell, I'll build a shed for it.

Yet this magical product has yet to materialize!

Would be really cool to have good, affordable batteries to store self produced solar.
