Yeah, but can production be scaled, or is this another 'breakthrough' that will never leave the lab?
Feels like every year we get a battery breakthrough that goes nowhere. No offense to the scientists, I'm sure they're doing great work, but I wish these articles would be honest on how practical these things are.
