Now, it is manufacturable? at scale and at a cost that the customer and consumer will pay?
Fang and Wang. You sure this is legit?
Does that mean they burn twice as hot?
They'll burn down a house in seconds flat
“Big, if true”
The pic of the coin cells is misleading, but that’s “journalism” these days.
We will continue to see improvement in energy density just as we have for the past 150 years.
Dang right!....................
Fang, wang, dang—ZZ Top would be amused.

2x current Li-Ion battery still only equals 1/10th energy density of gasoline.
Wake me up when they actually have a marketed product. University discoveries always have those “new” breakthroughs that don’t even pan out.
I like the Nuge, but not his music.
We are one step closer to being able to power a flux capacitor unit for Back to the Future!
Met him once in a record store..........................
If I've seen one "discovery" like this that didn't pan out, I've seen a thousand.
We will see flying cars before this "breakthrough" is commercially available.
I’ve noticed a disturbing trend when reading of things like this: More often than not, the people involved have names more common to China, than the western world. I don’t particularly care where people come from, but I can’t help but wonder if this is China’s way of cutting their own R&D costs.
Send their people out, get them paying jobs, and let the western world pay for the R&D and their people send the research (published or not) back home.
Kinda brilliant when you think about it.
Also
, it doesn’t say much about how we’re educating our young.

C’mon, take a journey to the center of your mind. ;o)

Yeah, but conversion of electricity to mechanical power is a lot more efficient than conversion of heat to mechanical power.
When you factor that in, it's more like 40% of the "mpg" capability of gasoline. Still not as good, but getting closer.
And you can generate electricity with nuclear power plants.
