Battery future ?
Hi all
Check out this report from Stanford Uni. It sound like good news for the future :-)

For others and in short: New Li Ion battery developed and patented by american scientists. Should be recharged in 6 minutes and can hold up to 10 times the capacity and should be able to handle 20000 cycles.
We only have to wait a couple of years .....And of course we have to invent a very cheap way of producing the needed Nano crystals
Think automobiles....

I have to admit to not reading the report, but A guy up here that is a heli guy said that toshiba had a li-ion that was able to do what you're discussing. I personally don't like to buy anything from Toshiba. That whole sub screw thing from the '80's. There are plenty of honorable companies out there. I did think that Lipo's were more advanced than Li-ION. I guess my assumption was wrong.

We should ask Luke Peng (he is on RCU) - he worked for Stanford University. He may have some insight into this...

Idea is simple, but the trick is how to make these nanotubes intact, line-up and minimize defects.
