AI Found a ‘Magic Potion’ That Can Bring Dead Batteries Back to Life

Cool but you can do much the same thing today with traction lead-acid used in fork-lifts. What's the total recycle cost (energy and materials) and original cell costs for this 'new' method? Another lab experiment that's a long way from becoming practical battery storage system.

 

After 12,000 charge-discharge cycles, the gas tank in my car is still at 100% capacity.

The dead battery thing is still interesting because there are so many uses for batteries in so many applications like Uninterruptable Power Supplies. Even 10000 cycles would be completely amazing.

It would be a waste of a high recharge cycle battery to use one on a UPS system. we specify batteries designed for UPS applications. For that type of system you want something a long service life at idle without losing capacity and high energy storage for the longest power in hopefully, infrequency power outages. high cycle batteries are very useful applications that have many deep cycles like an EV or renewable energy storage. High quality LFP is good for 5000 cycles, today.

China’s tech giant files solid-state EV battery patent with layered electrode design

​

Xiaomi notes that its prototype features a cell-to-body (CTB) design with a volume efficiency of 77.8%. The battery pack measures only 120 mm (about 4.7 inches) in height, including the vehicle floor, enabling better space utilization and improved weight distribution. It delivers a CLTC-rated range of over 745 miles and supports fast charging that adds 500 miles of range in just 10 minutes.

 

US startup unveils lithium battery that lasts 1,300 cycles, skips China entirely


​

The company pairs this anode with a vanadium cathode to manufacture a next-generation battery that has already achieved more than 1,300 cycles at commercially relevant charge and discharge rates.

Thanks to the vanadium cathode’s ability to operate at temperatures up to 700°C, the battery is significantly more fire-resistant.

Seriously, does she look like a Lithium Battery Expert to you?

 

I dunno ... how is she supposed to look?

The last girl that looked like this was trouble...

 

FWIW, she really does have issued patents in the field. So I guess the answer is Yes

Sooo, your thesis is that blondes in business are probably cons?

It's the way the PR is pushed that I don't like.

1,300 cycles is not very good, China likely skipped it for good reasons.

I hammer the LFP (top trace, 5000+ cycle life expected) and the old AGM battery banks daily.

I have one that goes for over 40 thousand miles on a full charge and charges up in 15 seconds.
Any takers?


Kudos if their battery really works as well as advertised though!

Amen to that!
Let's get going USA.

 

25x speed breakthrough in solid-state battery manufacturing achieved by US firm

​

At the core of QuantumScape’s battery is a proprietary ceramic separator material. Manufacturing this component requires a high-temperature thermal process, known as sintering, to form a dense, uniform layer.

Huh.

I've got a patent on a similar tech in a different industry.
