    but…with a small fraction of the galvanic potential of lithium meaning nowhere near the same energy density

    Yeah good luck getting the Manufacturers to change their product base and infrastructure to support a better, more efficient battery.

    Hell they’ll cling to the status quo because it keeps suckers coming back and often…I’m afraid LI-ON wont be going bye-bye soon.

    These articles about “promising” new battery technologies have been slung around on the interwebz for many years now, but the batteries they’re talking about are only ever in the development stage and never have i seen them in the practical or production stage.

    If i can’t actually buy zinc-air batteries which are so highly praised in this article then it’s not really doing me any damn good is it ?
