I swear I read about how some companies have managed to come up with some break through to charge or increase battery capacity every few months, yet these are never make it to market.
Cold fusion is right around the corner!
i thought they're already at "triple cold² fusion++" ;-)
my personal favorite (but not a battery) were two different fake news about fans without any moving parts, one with electricity, conductors and shapes only, the other using ultrasonic somehow, how cool were these lies !!!
https://www.itnews.com.au/news/silent-microchip-fan-has-no-moving-parts-106236
"RSD5 is the culmination of six years of research by Dan Schlitz and Vishal Singhal of Thorrn Micro Technologies"
"Six years of research", such a cool "product" and now that linked thorrn domain is for sale, how bad!! the world will never profit from their super "cool" invention !!!
"today" other bladeless fans (based on ultrasonic freqs) were anounced: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1471374-not-a-big-fan-new-solid-state-cooler-can-blow-air-with-no-moving-parts/ ("Frore is expecting to start shipping units in Q1 of next year." which was news from 2022) but did you hear about that cool product beeing shipped yet? i would have, i'm somehow sure, but somehow i didn't. maybe the "units" they wanted to ship were just something else *lol That article also says: "Frore Systems hasn't announced any actual computers featuring its Airjet solid-state coolers. But the company is already in partnership with the likes of Intel […]" no actual result, but already partners like intel (intel, how does'nt that already fit !!)
The same nonexisting effect (fan without moving parts), abused (at least) twice. (i'll just ignore those "bladeless fans" here that officially just have hidden "propellers") but military says "twice" is already a scheme...
why should it be different for batteries?
if they produce batteries THAT good, they would never sell them but make them available only for rent, to maximise their(!) ROI (and not yours). so i guess it's yafn - yet another fake news. i might still be wrong however, but i also like to be on the safe side of predictions ;-)
a theory: the richies offsprings startups desperately need other lies than their parents and grandparents who already used up nearly all language-allowed possible lies (as well as nonverbal lies, just watch tv for a while to see it in action) to distract people, companies and govs to 'invest' in them instead of i.e. in the future or in the nation, thus new nonexistant technologies is what the richies offspring found best to be their lies about.
Cold fusion certainly isn't.
That's the joke
The joke is fusion energy is just around the corner.
Cold fusion is a totally different topic.
Yes agreed.
But: Battery capacity, charging and discharging speed, price has dramatically moved in the last 20 years.
So while it’s easy to disregard revolutions, evolution has most definitely occurred. And many of them are fuelled by what gets hailed as a revolution and then, quietly, sneaks into the current production processes and makes it to market.
This one is definitely real and will be in cars (whether it's Samsung or someone else), probably by 2027.
