In all fairness, this topic is not as important as one might think. While improvements in large rechargable battery performance are welcome, this particular development is just one step on the way to making lithium sulfur batteries usable. It does not represent a finished technology ready to go into production. There are several other battery technologies under development. One at MIT does not use conflict minerals. So I wonder if we are going to see an endless procession of threads about the battery story of the week.
I don't see batteries as being useful for stationary storage The limited number of cycles makes them too expensive except in certain special situations where premium rates are charged during peak hours.
Finally, I see this as a dog whistle for another topic.
These discussions are not good for ASR. Since the ill fated Corvette thread I have been less active in audio discussions. I have no doubt others have been so influenced. They just haven't been active in this bunch of off topic discussions. It's not good for the atmosphere around here.
