the future of next generation of batteries

[kross8]

i dont know much about batteries,, ok yeah i know more than my mom......but that doesnt sound like real bragging rights lol.

our current era of ecigs is limited to our current forms of batteries/power sources. i think we will have other options in the future......i just ran across a recent article i hope some battery guru's chime in on their views/missing info from the article.

Future batteries, coming soon: charge in seconds, last months and power over the air - Pocket-lint

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) --seems to be getting the most press....

Better get to the Batcave and call @Mooch

"However, the origin of the anchoring effect afforded by heteroatoms is still not clear, which largely limits the improvement of polysulfides adsorption and the rational design of cathode materials."

Well duh.

Seen a few posts about these last couple years. It doesn't look like it's going to be soon...

Well yes, eventually, maybe next 5 to 10years minimum before they start hitting the larger consumer markets once price per volume is down to where your average consumer is acceptable of it. Even with high output LiPo on the market, I'll keep my chips bet on current 18xxx series batteries most of my mods still use. Myself would be looking at eventually we have batteries with more energy density (mah) than more power output (current/amperes) as the latter all the daredevils will go further and further down into their "Cloudz Broz" madness and cause more negative injury press than we need at the moment.
