Good news you will …
Good news you will get new Nanotech battery A123 systems more powerful than Lithium-ion Powered ! The Nanotech battery quick charged in 5 mins get full , you will get about 450 miles range

Stanford developed …
Stanford developed a lithium battery with 10x the charge of Lithium batteries. It has been revealed that Saudi Arabia now funds that project and there have been no further press releases on this battery since 2007.
Who will bury the MIT battery?

Associates from MIT …
ociates from MIT claimed to have found a way to contain 100x the charge in Lithium batterys, I completly missed its showing on “G4 Tech TV” So I have no further info.
My umptions are, theyed have to be unstable, but its something to look into.

and if that means …
and if that means you only charge you car once a day to do everything you need that enough cycles for just over 8 years of use before the batteries would need replacing.

120 miles per …
120 miles per charge
X 3000 available charges
= 360000 miles driven (x 1.609 for km = 579240)
yes the electric car is better! even at $10 per gallon.
MY car is 8 years old and only has 230000kms (142000 miles) on the clock so im not going to change the batteries under my ownership

It was on the Beyond Tomorrow show. I don’t have the answer for your other questions.

What program was this on? Beyond 2000 or Beyond Tomorrow? The spacey looking car early on in the video was featured in an article back in 1991 about two French guys who invented a ’source battery’. I wanted to see the vehicle go into production, but never heard another word about it. Wondered what happened?

Did I mention you should only discharge the battries less than fifty percent if you plan on keeping them for a full lifetime of service, up to 3000 cycles, ie one charge equals one cycle.

Battery has many …
Battery has many problems, longevity, capacity, weight, size, charging time/cycles, discharging rate, toxic material etc. every aspect needs improvement. Hydrogen Fuel cell has problem with the hydrogen production and delivery infrastructure unlike the well established electric grid. If I have the money I’d rather invest in battery research than in the hydrogen economy. When will Ironman share his secret power source?

We have everything …
We have everything to make the EV happen except the battery. I am really hoping fuel cell technology can get us out of this bind. We still would rely on hydrocarbon fuels however would be able to get many times the mileage from a single tank of fuel. We need to invest in MEMS research, and invent new technologies which have not been discovered.

You are about right …
You are about right. Some people spent over $10K to upgrade their Toyota Prius to become a plug-in hybrid car that falls in the same ballpark figure as your estimates. EV and PHEV badly need some battery technology break through to bring down the price and extend the longivity. Regular consumers will not spend that kind of money regardless how clean the cars are.

The Vech featured uses twenty-four one KWH packs do the math. Lasts 3000 cycles and will only get you 120 miles per charge. Fuel is still a better option. even at $10 per gallon.

I read $1200.00/ KWH, with the typical vech requiring at least 7KWH.

I thought Lithium polymer batteries were the lightest? used in radio controlled helicopters where weight is very critical?

BMS = Battery …
BMS = Battery Management System.
Measures and reacts to max and min voltage per cell to keep to cell from over charging or discharging and usually also balanced the cells when charging. Most RCs using Li-po can’t run without them.

Thank you, you are …
Thank you, you are right that they weren’t li-ion. They were Nimh rechargables. Same stats (2500mAh)..but they may be poor quality. They are about 25-50 cents each..rechagable more than 1000 times. What’s a BMS?

You have to be talking about non-rechargables i.e. once they are flat you bin them.
Rechargable cost quite abit more. A123 Li-ion cells as used in Dewalt power tools are about $10.00-14.00 a cell but will last 3000+ recharges.
I have seen 18650 (close to AA size) Li-ion batteries in bulk for as little as $3.00ea, but the technical specs for them were unknown. (i.e. if they’re rubbish they won’t last many cycles) That’s still $3000 to get 10kw/hr but you’ll need a BMS to make them last.

I saw 4packs of lithium aa’s for $1. Buy a box or two of them and i’m sure your shipping can get down to $100.. you’d have to make sure they were all vented properly.
the batteries were 1.2v and 2500maH
