Capacitors store energy based on Potential energy... and unlike chemical batteries, this does not require for a slow chemical reaction to create a charge. The only problem has been capacitor's ability to store energy, which usually is significantly lower than the average battery. Other wise, charging a capacitor is just like turning on one of those small lights that blink... it is near instantaneous!

Even at 100% , the energy put into the system is equivalent to a 5 minute charge-how can you go 5oo miles on a 5 minute charge? You have stored at most 5 minutes of electricity.

Nothing come near even the best today supper capacitors. This could charge faster, 5 minutes charge for this supper capacitor because involve of current regulator circuit and of course for discharge also.

Sounds like they may have jumped the gun and all is not as it seems. We're now out to 2008. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
