Something big is coming in battery technology. When I first bought LiFePo batteries they were near $1000 per 100 watt hours. Now, the same batteries are $100.

The more concentrated the energy stored in a lithium battery, the more it is manipulated as it is discharged, the more volatile the concoction. Will this battery be as safe as nitroglycerin or dynamite? Not so sure I would feel comfortable with my family sitting on top of it going 70 miles/hour and hit a pothole.

Another new battery. OK, it’s one of N batteries that are new and supposedly going to revolutionize electric cars. Seems like all those new batteries will be delayed until we get those fusion reactors going.

No matter how good the battery, it is still not an energy source.
