I think it's inevitable that, you know, again, for cost reasons, for integration complexity reasons, like, you know, you look at these WIP forests, you know, it starts to just become infeasible to maintain it.
And especially as you look forward, where the roadmap of power density increasing is not stopping.
Yeah, you need to be provisioning for a more capable platform.
Um, and yeah, like network racks, compute racks, storage racks, the same power supplies that,
you know, are in the Vera Rubin rack today that are doing 800 to 54 or 800 to 12 in the future can be doing that in those racks.
So those racks can become native 800.
And then on the other side, if you look at the thermal loads and the chillers and things, you know, I've built some factories like medium voltage chillers are already a thing.
Like you don't need to use low voltage 480 or something else to run your chiller plant.
You can...
The supply base exists to go, you know, up into the KV or even, you know, 13 KV and above chillers.
So you can directly wire them without the need for transformers.
And then obviously you've got like lighting and things and there are solutions there as well.
There will still probably be some low voltage popcorn inverter, inverter things that serve those housekeeping stuff.
Exactly.
Yeah.
I think DC also is not... Like, 800 VDC is not the end, right?
Like, when we built the supercharger infrastructure, you know, it was capable of charging EVs from 400 volts all the way up to 1,200 volts.
If you look at solar today, it's 1,500 volts.
All the big battery systems are 1,500 volts.
Solar is actually going to 2,000 volts.
