For example, at one-fifth the cost and weight of those presently on the market, a lithium-air battery would allow an electric car to drive 400 miles on a single charge and a mobile phone to last a week without recharging.............................

Great discovery. Of course it will take a while to use this commercially, but still, it is very encouraging.

Great, but where are the laser guns and the flying cars?

Sixteen years ago I found a small radio, 9x5inches, it had already been sitting in the garage for six years, but it turned on and worked. Its been sitting at my desk for 16years, every few months I turn it on, the batteries have Never Been Changed?

Two words...space probes. Batteries aboard still working how many YEARS after launch? Kinda far out to be solar charged. If science can make batteries like that the only reason we don’t have them for daily use is $$$! Big money industry selling expensive batteries for cell phones, comps etc. Long lasting anything kills the big disposables market.

Planned Obsolescence was the conspiracy which was instigated by a cartel in 1920 (The Light Bulb Conspiracy (documentary)).

Actually-—the elite sodomites have been planning the destruction of our habitat and enslavement and elimination of billions (for 200 years). Geo-engineering (destruction of the earth) and creating bio-engineered pathogens to release on the masses (or make mandatory vaccinations with all their viruses and aluminum-—to enslave and destroy autonomy (health)).

The AI movement is ALL about human obsolescence. (They wont need the boots in the army with drones, driverless cars-—cashless society gives complete control to the super psychotic sodomites who are feverishly trying to get total control of EVERYTHING.

They had the ability to make a light bulbs last over 100 years a hundred years ago, but they intentionally made the filament defective, so they could pollute and destroy the environment for wealth and control over the masses.

All marketing of ideas-—control the proper perceptions of the masses-—useful idiots (create a dog and pony “show”), so the elites can become masters and control the World and we are all distracted with gadgets and cr*- as the elites control the minds of our children—seduce them to the dark side (paganism/slavery).

You only “hear” what the elites want you to hear-—to keep us from Truth (God) Reality. (as they rape the earth and kill and enslave us). They stole Tesla’s papers in the 40s-—and have known how to produce “lasting” EVERYTHING-—but then people would not have to spend their crumbs on their products and might have time to raise their own children and control their own time. (Be free). Tesla wanted mankind to flourish, his ideas used for “good” of mankind—but the elites have different ideas and it “freedom” for the masses isn’t one of them.

Tesla’s father was an orthodox priest and his mother’s father was an orthodox priest. Without the Christian Worldview, there would have been no Tesla, no Age of Reason, no Modern Science. He was the most brilliant man of all history, other than Christ. That is why it is ONLY Christian Worldview which is being eliminated off of the face of the earth—the only worldivew which created Free Will, Individiualism-—which is inconsistent with slavers.

It seems that there is another “battery breakthrough” story promising massively enhanced capacity about every two months. If all of those stories were true by this point an AA battery would last about 100 years in continuous use. So, ever going to build it?

I’ll believe it when they’re selling it to me. Forever battery rumors have been around so long they made fun of them on Barney Miller.
