SHould be a blanket ban on miraculous battery technology stories until they are actually in production and proven.
Cause lets face it, if one of these miracle batteries using cheap, common materials with amazing capacity and longevity was real, it wouldnt take long for companies to jump on them.
Late 19th/Early 20th century had about 1/3rd of all cars on the road be electric.
Long before lithium batteries were ever a thing.
Also, Theres a much higher demand thanks to the modern resurgence of electric cars, for better, cheaper batteries.
Which means that current car and battery makers have a much bigger incentive to jump on large scale miracle battery technology, than they did in the 1970s. Just like computers have much increased demand for ram today than they did in the 1970s. 🙄
yep.

Research into the lithium ion battery started in the 1970s and they only became common in EVs in the 2010s.
So yes, it would “take long” for companies to “jump on them”.
Electric cars existed long before the 2010s.
