Reply to comment by KmartQuality in Battery swapping spurs Kenya's electric motorbike drive by For_All_Humanity

I used propane tanks as an example just because people are familiar with that concept.

With the propane tank, to get started you have to buy a tank. After that they're happy to swap out going forward.

Maybe they have a setup where you actually buy a battery but then continue the same way as with propane.

It's very expensive up front though.
