Something about this really stinks...

Bummed to see this…people stink for crap like this.

Donut Battery does not come in one fixed format. From one baseline chemistry, we can tune voltage, energy density, cycle life, charge rate, temperature, and cost, and shape the cell into almost any form factor, from a thin pouch to a curved design that fits the body of the product. The cell is built around the application, not the application around the cell. A drone, a robot, and a grid storage system can each get a cell designed for the job it actually has to do. This episode is about that freedom, and the new business cases it opens that did not exist before.

Amazing this asshat is still talking. Marko's folly.

None of these production ready advancements is going to stop me from dreaming about the next tech: Quantum Batteries:

Very similar to Donut and Fusion power. Lots of buzz words and future pronouncements but very little substance. Today’s batteries C rate may not increase with size but the amount of kWh/hr they can store does (see Silverado or Sierra). Also the Chinese pretty much have the charge time solved. The next big problem in batteries is recycling. New cheaper batteries lack expensive minerals. LFP batteries cost more to recycle than their value during salvage due to shipping costs.

Will Prowse made a good video talking about how far ahead China is. He made the comment that China develops, tests, sorts out manufacturing and THEN makes announcements once the product is ready, while the rest of the world is busy making announcements with nothing to show for it and most of those fizzle out.

This why I hear people say things like “I will believe it when China does it.”

This is true. We’ll probably see the Scout EV truck in 2037.

I don't know why they still bother. Beyond sad at this point.

In other words, they need to harvest more actual email addresses...

This is still happening? I thought this was debunked as fakery.

There's a sucker born everyday.
