* 9:00?{{x|I lost the exact timestamp, will find it again later}} cobalt-free cathode using more iron and nickel - it can be made with the same factory equip - same energy density or more - what about stability tho? | |||
* so the video says that a solution is being developed. The video was posted on November 11, 2021. Now what? I don't expect updates from these kinds of youtube channels - and if there was, would it even help? How do we{{x|the people lol}} push this research forward{{x|or make an honest evaluation of its feasibility}} when it's all done behind closed doors of corporations? Are we just supposed to wait around while the planet is burning? |
