One of the strikes against purely electric cars is battery charge time. If they can get charge time comparable to filling the gas tank, it would be a major step.

The smaller battery with the same charge is also important for automobiles.

This is great news for companies like Tesla. Let's hope the oil companies and auto manufacturers don't nix this like they did the EVs in the late nineties.

Oh no, not the oil companies!!!

I wonder how many technological advances have been made by people like you, who will believe any dumb thing they hear.

Yeah, I guess I made it all up. Company's which refused to advertise the EV complained that there was no demand for them. However the people who had actually leased these vehicles BEGGED them to let them keep the vehicles offering to release the automotive companies of any liability. They were rebuffed. Yeah...it's all in my mind. The fact is that an EV with this new battery technology would be much better than any hybrid and the Big 3 fought developing those until Toyota shamed them.

He/she didnt just mean your dumb because you believe everything you hear, he/she believes your dumb because you believe everything you read too. Dont you know that you cant believe everything you read, hear or see? You cant even believe some things you feel.

Point is, we should all be like globhead and live our lives as skeptics. Glass is half empty. I wonder how many technological advances have been made by people like you, who will wont believe anything they hear.

"Boss, I think I found a fuel source that can get us to the moon."

"Thats B.S, there is no such fuel, forget that idea and focus on things that are more real, lets focus on trolling and flaming around the phone scoop forums."

You know, all someone really has to do to...

Oh, yeah, forgot to add, I also believe the oil companyies and auto companies would try to fight this just as they tried to fight solar power and electric powered homes/vehicles.

You (the guy that doesnt believe anything) need to realize that its all about money. Who stands to gain and who stands to lose is all that matters.

I dont think the auto companies would fight this half as much as one would think though. It could drive people back into the auto dealership. Carsalesmen can tell new and old buyers about the new battery feature and how economycl it is. Lastest and saves. Batteries arent generally that expensive so they might let it slide. Between high MPG and a new Battery the Car bussiness could pick up.
