It's like how revolutionary battery technology is always just months away.

I follow EV battery tech a little. You’re not wrong that there is a lot of “oh its just around the bend” in battery development and tech development in general. I blame marketing for 80% of that.

But battery technology is changing drastically. The giant cell phone market is pushing battery tech relentlessly. Add in EV and grid storage demand growth and the potential for some companies to land on top of a money printing machine is definitely there.

We’re in a golden age of battery research. Exciting for our future, but it will be a while before we consumers will have clear best options.
