This September on TESLA’s “Battery Day” TESLA will announce its supposed revolutionary Al-ion battery for the TESLA Model 2. With around 7 Al-ion battery factories being built around the world
TESLA aims to make this battery in MANY shapes for many markets including, natch, military.

Personally I can’t wait to relaplace my two heavy Li-ion E-mountain bike batteries for my 2 wheel drive monster that I use for hunting and hauling out boned-out meat.

If as revolutionary as the most fervent YouTube video touts then this is VERY close to the Holy Grail of batteries we all have been waiting for. SAFE FROM COMBUSTION, VERY FAST CHARGING, HUGE BATTERY LONGEVITY, WIDE TEMPERATURE OPERATING RANGE, LIGHTER, LESS EXPENSIVE.

Well, boys and girls, let’s pray Elon’s mad scientists got it THAT right. If so it will make me. have  Love/Hate feelings for him (instead of Hate/Hate.)

Eric,

Lithium has an atomic weight of 7

Aluminium has an atomic weight of 27

Lithium Ion cells run at 3.7V

Aluminium cells probably won’t run at 3.7V

So even if what you’ve read isn’t the usual ‘put tesla in the headline and write any old rubbish’ you’ll still be using your current batteries.

Wellll… TESLA claims THREE times the “power density” of lithium-ion batteries so we’ll just have to wait and see. Thing is, several YT channels have announced this “miracle” battery so it has me anticipating  the real world performance.

PLUS TESLA is coming out with their Pi Phone with this AL-ion battery “poised” to knock Apple’ iPhone off its perch. As well TESLA will launch a PiPad. So…
