WASHINGTON, May 13, 2009 The Armys Advanced Automotive Battery Initiative is searching for the holy grail of power technology: an inexpensive, lightweight and reliable battery.
Collaboration is very important, in my opinion, Sonja Gargies, energy storage team leader for the Armys Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center, told listeners during an Armed with Science: Research and Applications for the Modern Military webcast May 6 on Pentagon Web Radio. I dont see how one agency alone can accomplish the goal of a more energy efficient world. |

So is everyone else.
Take the blue pill.
No wait — was that the red pill?
What happens if you take them both?
I never have to worry about taking the wrong color with Jack Daniels.
Oh, automotive, I was remembering those old brick size, short lived, heavy batteries for the PRC 70.
Yep: We have been looking for this since the first electric car appeared sometime in the early part of the 20th century, Unfortunately we still have found it .
Yep PRC 77 or 25 batteries were fun to break open and toss in the water.
Optima batteries are great vehicle batteries. Used em for years
A totally empty article. Technical points have been covered by other replys. I think someone’s getting ready to ask for a chunk of our money.
I barely remember the PRC 77 but the PRC 70 actually had a bicycle type battery charger that you had to haul around sometimes.
Grinder. The 70 had better range for morse with a directional antenna.
Stay safe Sir
I found it! It fell between the cushions on the couch.

Is *that* where I left it????
Did you see plans for a 150 MPG carburetor there too? Just checking...
Yes, it was holding the diningroom table level. I sent it along with the cloaking device Buddy was using as an umbrella stand by teleporter.
Did you get it?
LOL
We used CW key more than anything with the grinders till we scored LS 6 sat com.
Hated those lithium batteries. Every troop packed at least 2 spares.
Stay safe
