Lithium-ion not out of the running
Here’s a little article at Wired.com about A123 Systems’ new lithium-ion product. The gains are impressive — double the energy density, non-volatile, etc… And the product is already making its way into powertool products. It’s a reminder that there are many other energy storage breakthroughs happening out there, and while EEStor’s appears one of the most impressive so far, it’s comforting to know we’ve got some solid contenders in the pipeline.

I went on this web site. The music is annoying and there is very little information. What was the point of providing this link?
