I'm not sure if it's possible, but an aftermarket battery with closer to the MB Airs KW/h specs would be a very interesting modification.

The repairability seems to be interesting especially if it leads to framework style upgradability (logic boards, not the ports).

I'd bet dollars to donuts that it either treats any battery connection like the stock battery or it fails over to a run like crap mode like third party batteries in their phones.

If the BMS onboard the batteries only exposes the same power as the stock battery I don’t know how it would know

FYI: KWh (it is a product).

Yeah, that would be an interesting modification, wouldn’t it?

Link? Searching for such a generic term didn’t reveal anything

They mean in the sense of sum, product, difference, and quotient. The comment they were replying to said KW/h (a quotient), but the term is KWh which is a product.
