Aluminum Graphene batteries?

Hey there,

I've been following the developments around Aluminum Graphene batteries, and it looks like there's some real promise behind the hype. These batteries are being developed by companies like Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMG) in collaboration with the University of Queensland. They claim that these batteries can charge up to 70 times faster and have a longer lifespan compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries.

One of the biggest advantages is that they don't use lithium or other rare earth materials, which makes them potentially safer and more environmentally friendly. Plus, the supply chain for aluminum is much simpler and less controversial than for lithium.

However, it's important to note that while the lab results are impressive, these batteries are still in the development phase and not yet commercially available. So, while the potential is there, we might need to wait a bit longer to see if they can deliver on all their promises in real-world applications.

Hope this helps clear things up a bit!

It certainly looks promising. But also "too good to be true". Be fascinating to see what really happens when the hype clears.

Also, the hype is that the are made out of recycled aluminum cans and recycled plastics.
