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.

Fast charging would be a hugh demand on peak power on the grid and transformers. I hope people won't start charging during peak hours !!

I want one (or two?) of these babies in a Tesla Roadster. That would be awesome beyond description. Looks promising. I want one (or two?) of these babies in a Tesla Roadster.
