Big advance in Super Caps (12x)

MileHigh,

talking of solar panels I hope the price of lithium batteries drops in the same way as solar panels have, agree with you on how often we hear a new announcement but never see the product on the shelf, there is also a safety issue with super capacitor batteries if they are in a collision etc.


They are only using very small caps

sorry to inform you that li-ions will never drop in price significantly.element lithium is both 1)quite rare and 2) intensely power-consuming to mine and purify.but dont despair,,the company at 27thcenturytechnologies.com has said they have a self-charging li-ion cell ready for mass production.

Something similar said about solar panels many years ago then it was all about the quality of silicon used being very expensive

One decade before solar cell silicon/silicium production process had been a monopol from Wacker industry. Only Kyocera had received a production licence !


From 9N (99,9999999% purity) today it is possible to use 6N silicon !
Besides quality there is also the factor quantity: concentrator technology !
