Didn’t this come up about 3 or 4 years ago, and the consensus was that the battery would be too unstable, and might explode?

That is a boat load of energy in a small space. Remember the compaq laptop computers that would explode? Scale that up a thousand times!

However, I hope that they can make a battery with that great of a power density that is safe. Batteries have been the weak link in electrical powered cars.

"That is a boat load of energy in a small space"

Yes, it is. Its like packing the charge from the battery of a KW highway tractor into a battery the size of a D cell.

"However, I hope that they can make a battery with that great of a power density that is safe."

Possibly a catalyst can be found that sufficiently regulates the available discharge rate down to the application's required level.

There seems to be a lot of confusion here about whether the energy density is being increased or the number of cycles of discharge - recharge.

The objective is to do both of course.
