frankd Posted February 16, 2011 Share #1 Posted February 16, 2011 I found this information about new lithium-ion battery technology and how it may apply to electric vehicles interesting. http://oilandglory.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2011/02/07/how_the_us_may_win_the_battery_race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coy55boy Posted February 17, 2011 Share #2 Posted February 17, 2011 What a coincidence... I was just looking at an ad on WingStuff.com for a new lithium battery made for motorcycles. It's expensive as heck but (according to them) No more dead batteries. Holds charge for one year without maintenance. Ultra lightweight, one fifth the weight of lead acid motorcycle batteries Significantly outlast any traditional lead acid battery's Military grade Carbon Fiber Composite Case Faster Cranking for better starts Super-Fast recharge rate SAFE.. No explosive gasses during charge, No Lead, No Acid!! Environmentally friendly, just discharge and dispose Japanese engineering and components are of the highest technology and quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfVenture Posted February 17, 2011 Share #3 Posted February 17, 2011 I definately would like to go this route when I need another battery, however there was another discussion thread about lithum batteries that brought up a charging issue. I do not understand it all and so I hoping that your topic again will draw more attention and replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
