Not a new battery invention!

It's not a battery - it's just a capacitor using new material and capacitor-held energy can be quite dangerous.

This isn't going to fly any better than prior capacitive storage schemes to replace batteries.

Precisely. Capacitors are the primary reason that people who are not very familiar with electrical circuits should NEVER remove the back back of high-energy electronics, like televisions.
