With innovations like these, the patent will surely be brought up by a battery conglomerate and shelved eternally.

This sounds too good to be true, so what’s the catch? High cost? Low capacity? 10+ years until it is viable?

Just thinking about numbers of volts and amps required to charge big car battery in seconds… makes me shiver.

Sounds like a very expensive (and high carbon) manufacturing process.
I can see these used as „trimmer capacitors“ where grids are frequently unstable, but not produced for powering devices.

This might be useful for transportation, but energy density must suffer for reasons of physics. Charging an energy dense battery in seconds is equivalent to an „inverse explosion“.

And it only costs five cents!

Yes but only in mice

In the meantime we have sodium based batteries

Great headline, my battery charges in seconds also… about 43,200 seconds.

This isn’t gonna be in cars or phones btw. It’s too large and heavy for the energy density. However, it’ll be widely used for power stations. For example, if you have a solar array on the roof of your house, it may make sense to have a bunch of these in your basement to store power so you can use it all night.

So it’s very low capacity?
