Bullshit, all kinds of electronic has degradation even if you don't used it

[-] nikaaa@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

you mean "all kinds of batteries"

[-] GlitterInfection@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

with zero degradation in the first five years of use.

Kind of an important fact there. It's not zero degradation, but some magic new tech that makes it not degrade for a while.

Even if it’s just zero degradation in the first 5 years, that still seems like a big deal.

[-] GlitterInfection@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Totally agree. I think leaving it out of the headline made the "doubt" responses happen, though.

It's probably the same thing Tesla does, it just charges up to 80% and says that's 100%, then as it degrades it charges to a higher percent to compensate. They just give it some headroom for the degradation.

If that were true, then you probably should calculate the difference in energy density. How do they achieve that effect while increasing energy density?

[-] GlitterInfection@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

That's not what they're claiming, though as someone else pointed out this article is basically a press release.

From the article:

Leveraging biomimetic solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and self-assembled electrolyte technologies, it says that TENER enables unobstructed movement of lithium ions and achieves zero degradation for both power and capacity.

As a layman, I have no idea what this is saying, other than it's using some new thing (possibly a new material?) to achieve what the headline is claiming.

That article is basically just an ad.

Given it's a Chinese company, I'll believe it when I see it.
