Big if true. Could be BS, you decide.

The claims are dramatic. Donut says its solid-state battery can charge to 80 percent of capacity in as little as five minutes, endure 100,000 cycles and deliver 400 watt-hours per kilogram of energy density, versus the 200-300 Wh/kg of typical lithium-ion cells.

If that's true than ICE's are done, forever. No doubt about it.

Heck...I just want a battery weed eater that that will last long enough to do my yard.

Battery technology is the key to electric vehicles.

Like LED lights, sooner or later they'll figure it out. When they do, the market will drive their sales, not government.
