Fast charging you say. And much does this fast charging make this battery die sooner? This always seems to be a problem.

As in you buy a new Tesla automobile. If you only charge it up via fast charging. You will have to replace your battery years sooner. A relative goes in for this EV stuff. He has a charging station in his garage. I must assume that you can regulate the charging speed at home? Right? So that you can dial it back. To where his Tesla (Chevy Bolt too) get charged more slowly over 8 hours.

Brave soul. Hope his insurance will cover it.

Uniform layers of lithium metal are of great interest to battery researchers because they lack battery-performance-degrading spikes called dendrites. The formation of these dendrites in battery anodes is a longstanding roadblock to fast-charging ultra-energy-dense lithium-metal batteries.
