Eh let’s not pretend battery tech isn’t advancing rapidly. Yes the over-hyped headlines are annoying but battery tech is moving forward at breakneck speeds.

The Internet is terrible at understanding R&D timelines. We’re operating on timelines that can be 10-20 years from R&D to a consumer products. It’s been this way forever. NASA’s tech advancements were a great example of this.

If you want check on the progress of big scientific advancements, you can’t be looking back at the papers published last year, you need to look back at the papers published a decade ago.

And that all being said, this specific tech is at the end of R&D pipeline. It’s going into scaled manufacturing. It’s going to be a thing you can buy soon.

This thing is happening though. If you look up “dry coated electrodes,” you’ll see that this has been in development for over a decade, and manufacturers are now starting to build manufacturing lines for this. It’s not a lab experiment anymore, this is going into mass production.
