Isn’t it just a capacitor at that point if it’s rapid charge and discharge?

I’ve been seeing these hopes and dreams fly and fail since all the hubbub about graphene batteries. Will believe it when I see it in my devices.

A capacitor stores energy in a different way than an electrochemical cell does

Charging time is a worthless metric without the capacity.

Anyone can make a battery that charges in one minute. Tell me when it also has the same capacity as my phone’s battery and will last thousands of charge/discharge cycles.

I look forward to hearing about this again in 20 years, or never again
