This BREAKTHROUGH Battery lasts virtually FOREVER! | Changes EV Game!  

Good information, however a fast charging rate will be difficult to achieve in large quantities. For example to charge 60 KWH in 5 minutes requires power generation and transmission of 720 KW.including substation size transformers. Best to place all the charging stations close to the 125 x 1 GW nuclear power plants that will be required for the U.S. to transition all gasoline transportation from fossil fuel to electric. (the 125 GW power generation represents an average capacity...given all transportation is charging continuously - no time to plug/unplug, no after work, weekend, or vacation surges, etc) This is a big expense to the charging station in electric power demand fees and transformer cost, and that expense will be paid by the consumer. None of the presentations of leading edge technology attempt to explain how the technology will be scaled up to a useful size.

Very informative n in crisp narration👍

Wow!

Great information thanks. Do you think the ceramic separator and/or solid electrolytes are using AL2O3 (high purity alumina) ?

,does this short time for a charge require dc fast charge or will it charge in a level 2 charger?

Lipo4 (iron phosphate lithium ) batteries are plenty good enough to offer up to 900 miles range in really large packs and offer 80 percent charging in 18-30 minutes on level 3 charging so with all due respect I wholeheartedly have to disagree with your assertion that they are not yet good enough to replace ice cars. Infrastructure IS an issue but will change over the next 10-25 years etc. Cheers.

Gullible, and bologna. Let's visit here in 2 years.

What do I think? I think that you know a hell of a lot more about batteries than I do, so if you don't know what the future brings, then I don't either. I just hope that one of these you just explained will do the job. Just remember, for the western world to adopt a new technology, it MUST make a profit! 😊

I'm sick and tired of these videos, we see them all the time but nothing concrete, A lot of ideas trying to get financing and end up running away with the money, In silicon valley is known as "fake it until you make it", but most of the time no one makes it.

A friend of mine has a 1927 model-T... Better, Faster Cheaper (you are only allowed to pick 2). It's taken 100 years to perfect gas powered car... and for what you pay... they are cheap. Cheap and fast is never better... (Dollarama stores). Fast and Better is never cheap... note: $27b NASA has spent on Artemis. Give the battery tech some time and it will be better and cheaper like gas powered cars today!

Solid-state lithium batteries? They are to the battery world what nuclear fusion is to the grid-scale power generation world. its always just around the corner but the corner never ends.

Why this toe-tailing Li ion battery? There are numerous alternatives including sodium ion , zinc bromide and aluminium batteries! Why are our greedy industrialists not inclined to develop these alternatives?

Beyond batteries Do you think it is reasonable to consume a lot of energy by cyclicly moving a large thermal mass (say a sealed container of wax) back and forth between a stove and a refrigeorator? You aren't making any permanent changes as you alternately melt and solidify the wax. The unreasonableness of this waste is a challenge to the second law of thermodynamics. The second law of thermodynamics (2LoT) needs a modern reality check. If 2LoT is true then the Universe will die from heat stagnation. 2LoT became a science paradigm starting with Isaac Newton's observation that heat moved only from hot to cold along a fire poking rod. continued in the euphoria of progress in steam engines and industrialization and matured with formalization by Boltzman, Rudolf Clausius, and Maxwell. If 2LoT is falsifiable the depression of ultimate futility will be removed and civilization will run on breakeven perpetual motion (more dryly known as thermal perpetual motion or perpetual motion 2) where the solid finding that energy/matter is not created from nothing or lost to nothing but can be changed in form is no longer compromised by thermal energy needing a temperature difference to "do work" and thermal energy with no mesoscale temperature difference is unavailable for a change in form. Please consider a thought experiment for self powered thermal diversification that is impractical but easy to visualize and check for mechanical workability: Sketch made with keyboard characters: COLD ROOM ())--:::WALL:::-->> HOT ROOM >~1000 NM< Key ()) = Paddlewheel. -- = Axle. (Continuous from end to end) ::: = Axle tunnel going through a wall. >> = Lumped friction element Visualize two roome full of air separated by a very thin wall that allows the rooms to hold their heat independently with minor leakage through the wall. The wall is thin to delicately support billions of separate nanometer scale short axles running straight through loosely enough to rotate freely but not leak very much heat so the rooms can hold separate temperatures. On the left side, a very small paddlewheel is mounted at the left end of each axle. On the right side, lumped friction elements are mounted stationary in place on the wall, one for each axle, for the right end of each axle to run through. The lumped friction elements connvert the mechanical rotation of their axle into heat. Brownian motion (a nanometer scale effect) turns the paddlewheels at random speeds randomly clockwise or rcounterclockwise. This random rotation is turned into heat by the lumped friction elements. The lumped friction elements do not impart Brownian motion to their axle. The committed functional roles of the paddiewheels, axles, and lumped friction elements in differnt places should systemically produce a divergence in the thermal energy in the two rooms without adding external energy This breaks the second law of thermodynamics. (Maxwell's demon fails if the demon needs added light to sort gas atoms). It is more symmetrically elegant for refrigerators to release energy as they cool. I was granted US patent 3890161 DIODE ARRAY for a refrigerator that absorbs thermal energy and releases a corresponding amount of electrical energy using the intermediary of rectified Johnson noise (the Brownian motion of electrons) aggregated by a multitude of consistantly aligned diodes. It has been open for anyone to develop since 1992. It may be easier to develop a successor with the working name Thermic Array. The Thermic Array will not be patented. I do not want the exclusionary power of patents. Furthermore, wide exposure to the public (as needed for wide scientific and spiritual discourse) renders invention concepts unpatentable. The Thermic Array mainly consists of two electrodes closely face to face (~1 micrometer) in a vacuum wired to an external electrical circuit. The face of the [Emitter] electrode is covered with a uniform array of LaB6 tipped small diameter carbon nanotubes grown straight out. The face of the [Absorber] electrode is covered with small scale graphine flake char. [Rice U 2014] Thermal energy mobilized unattached electrons tend to free themselves outward from the emitter tips and drift at ~1 million meters / second @ electron energy of 25 millivolts to the absorber which tends to collect them. A negative charge accumulates on the absorber. This repels oncoming electrons slowing their forward drift, cooling them. The absorber electrode charge is simultaneously the repelling cooling and the electrical circuit voltage. The drift current and wire current are the same. The DC electrical power consumed by the electrical load depends on the load resistance. Thermal energy absorption always equals the electrical yield (Wire resistance is a practical loss not a true loss so lt is overcome by added Thermic Array output). The performance of the device is expected to be modest in the beginning but improve rapidly. Even early devices are expected to last a long time. There is little place for obsolence if the first installed Thermic Array works adequately. They will withstand being short circuited indefinately. The Thermic Array needs protyping by a smoothly functioning nanofabrication team to see if it works. Initial prototype funding would come from a crowdfunded grant managed by a sophisticated ream (Funding by financialization should be avoided). I don't think I would fit on this team well. Development of the Thermic Array has stalled here for years. In my exile as 2LoT and financialization pariah I try to think about improvements, applications, and implications of the Thermic Array. I think Thermic Arrays should be manufactured in AI operated human managed cooperative coglomerates. Business details would be open public knowledge. Associated people should freely talk and move as negotiated. The semicustom products would be sold at honest accounting commodity prices. This may be an organic industry for the overall betterment of civilization. Thermic Arrays are not unreservedly good. Some foresight of the consequences is needed. For an exploratory example, endlessly powered boomboxes would be so portable and easy to operate that very young children could carry them around and make a lot of disturbing sound. This could provide teaching moments where children learn to consider more effects of their actions. Music talent may emerge. I have been on a quest to break 2LoT since a distinct inspiration from Isaac Asimov's depiction of machines that fully conserve energy [ View from a Height Doubleday 1963] read 1964. I disengaged when Asimov's text moved on to entropy. Entropy may be an unnecessary mathematical artifact. This is free energy (after material, manufacturing, margin and maintence costs) if it works and then becomes cheap and then becomes almost completely free as specific performance increases, it will become the climax form of energy. Electrical energy hypothetically will be extracted from the ambient heat of air or water leaving corresponding refrigeration behind. Most uses of electricity quickly turn into heat of the same energy as the extracted heat. Mobile refrigerators would consist of thermostat controlled Thermic Arrays inside insulated compartments with the resulting electrical output sent by wire to an attached external thermally isolated electrically resistive perhaps finned energy dissipator. Stationary refrigerators would export their coproduced electrical output by wire. Frozen food storage would be free or slightly value positive. The cycling between heat and electricity could be very close in micro electronic devices where Thermic Arrays could be in the same package as the electronic microcomponents. The electrical power requirements and heat dissipation of the circuitry would mostly cancel each other out. Decentralized local power supplies would have less electronic crosstalk interference. Fewer power pins would be needed. Cell phones wouldn't need power cords or batteries and they won't overheat (they would cool instead as they transmit radio signal power). Vehicles wouldn't need fuel or fueling stops. Nomads would have comforting gear. Community equipment banking would be simplified. Aloha Charles M Brown lll Kilauea, Kauai HI96754
