Samsung Just Showed a 600-Mile Solid-State EV Battery, Charges in 9 Minutes

_________________

Can power an EV 600 miles, charge in 9 minutes, and burn to a crisp in 60 seconds!

Why do you need anything like this in a 15-minute city where your every transaction is controlled by Central Bank Digital Currency?

[xp38]

any day now :)

[wny]

Di-lithium crystals are the answer….

[subterfuge]

Meh. Maybe a game changer if they don’t blow up and burn your house down.

[rktman]

Good to know the EST burn time on them. 🚗🔋🔥

Perhaps the VP 🛐 has an answer.

[traditional2]

Few questions(to the Green Fanatics):

Where and how do you dispose of them

Can they power speakers to make the sound system produce a Muscle Car exhaust sound, like the "NEW" hi-tech electrics?

How do you extinguish the fires when they burn?

Will home-owners insurance cover the costs of a house fire when they burn down from a car battery fire?

How many TONS of toxic wasted will this create, and has an environmental impact "study" been done?

[basalt]

uh huh...whats it do at 10 below zero..

[philman_36]

Then, of course, there’s the issue of cost.

They address the manufacturing cost, not the cost to owners to recharge the thing.

[Leep]

And the battery is 99% recyclable.

"Di-lithium crystals are the answer…"

[chiller]

Still, far too many disqualifiers:

infrastrucure
cost
replacement cost
weight
tire wear
road damage
material sourcing
power sourcing (nuclear)
destroying our dominate oil/gas industries and detrimental affects on economy

....for starters

If we didn’t have the gov mandates, hybrids would be an ideal test bed. aif the tech succeeds and is accordable the hybrids would largely give way to EVs down the road, without forcing anybody to make or buy anything.

So my diesel pickup truck gets 15 mpg and has a 30-gallon tank. I can go from empty to full in about 5 min, depending on which pump I am at (some pumps are slow). Granted, that is about 450 miles instead of 600, but it is 1/2 the time.

So, for a 9-minute refueling, I can get about 900 miles in range.

If we look at China, whose EV makers offer similar charging speeds, 480kW and sometimes even 600kW chargers are an absolute must.

+++++++++++

600kW = 804 HP; The article itself tells you why this is impractical. Once again the details tell you this is folly.

[VideoDoctor]

They can have a battery that RECHARGES in 30 seconds.. they are still confronted with BUILDING a MASSIVE supportive ELECTRICAL GRID.. including MULTIPLE and MASSIVE GENERATION sources, which in my opinion will take longer that when President Eisenhower began building America's INTERSTATE highway system.

Has anyone seen Toyota's recent announcement on a motor that runs on WATER that generates HYDROGEN FUEL?

NOT a JOKE.. a Car that RUNS on WATER!

Now, if you’re thinking that all this sounds too good to be true, well, that’s because it kinda is. There definitely is a catch, and that catch is the fact that these ultra-fast charging batteries require some pretty solid infrastructure for you to get the claimed nine-minute charge time. If we look at China, whose EV makers offer similar charging speeds, 480kW and sometimes even 600kW chargers are an absolute must. But even in China, charging stations of this capacity are far and few in between.

You'd need a 6 mW substation to power a single 10 bay charging station.

Look at the number of gas stations in your town, then imagine the number of new substations that would have to be built to construct an equal number of charging stations.

[mass55th]

"Wake me up when the charge time is 9 seconds and range is 1,000 miles."

I live in an apartment in a small city. The owner of this complex who owns quite a bit of other real estate in the city, aren't going to put in charging stations for their tenants. And the Government will never produce enough charging stations to accommodate the whole population of this country with their electric car mandate. Biden wasted 5 billion dollars, and only got 8 charging stations on line with it.

Projects like that are simply ways to fill the pockets of their friends, family, and big donors. It's no different than Obama and Biden giving billions in grants to multiple solar panel companies, that either went out of business or went bankrupt shortly after...i.e., Solyndra.

RAT-run State governments do the same thing...i.e., Andrew Cuomo in New York, blowing wads of taxpayer money on projects that never got off the ground, and even had a close aide charged with Federal crimes for his role in the projects...but the boss somehow never gets caught.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

... and it only requires a single 10 Megawatt charging source.

Maybe we should train large draft animals to pull us around in carts?
