In an energy storage system that includes a battery and an ultracapacitor, the state of charge of the capacitor is the subject of a dynamic set-point. In a preferred embodiment, each backpressure restrictor consists of capillary tubing with a pressure drop across it controlled to be less than or slightly greater than 0. Common data or control inputs are provided for the gates in the replicated combinational logic. Location definitions associated with the received unique ID may be used by programming in the controlling device to recall saved devices states, commands sets, macros, and even to dynamically generate commands based on the location information. The present application is also directed to pharmaceutical formulations comprising abeo-taxanes and methods of treating cancer with the abeo-taxanes.
