If this isn't just corporate hype, this could be great for making smaller batteries, hopefully less resource intensive.

Oh another huge groundbreaking battery technology that will very soon change the world!!!!!

Let me just log that with the 8436 times I've read that in the last 2 decades.

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago

Over the last two decades battery technology has increased DRASTICALLY. So the cynicism isnt entirely deserved.

[-] qjkxbmwvz@startrek.website 4 points 5 months ago

It has; but afaik it has been more through incremental improvements rather than huge technological leaps.

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

Not exactly. Those technological leaps are spread throughout. It just looks like its entirely incremental even though its not really. It takes time to develop things and along the way the existing tech is refined.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Just because the increments aren't in a straight line doesn't mean they're not still incremental.

I know battery tech is progressing and lithium ion is way advanced, but every month I see a bait article claiming they are revolutionizing the tech and this new technology will DOUBLE or TRIPLE the liion battery... Especially the solid state battery articles. It's always bait

[-] xkforce@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

It takes time to develop things. And solid state batteries like this really are promising.

If I had a nickel for every groundbreaking battery technology discovered, I could make my own groundbreaking discovery! Just trust me this time

[-] jaemo@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago

You'd certainly have an adequate supply of nickel for the required metallurgy...

[-] random_character_a@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Some of those were dangerous as hell and we won't see them in consumer use ever, unless somebody wants a very expensive frag grenade.

[-] dezmd@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Still waiting on those miracle molten salt batteries that are going to revolutionize long term energy storage.
