    Wow, are we actually going to see it in use right as solid state batteries start coming out too?

    I’m not holding my breath but it would be pretty cool…

        Yeah but supposedly we’re actually finally getting solid state tech commercially available in things like vehicles within the next year or two.

        Technically, you can already buy them as external battery packs for devices but they are pricey compared to old lithium ion batteries.
