They were primarily talking about cell phone batteries charging in the
blink of an eye, not car batteries.
Speaking of which, when was the last time any of us the battery in our
car -- driving not included?
I think the article is legit. The sources trace back to the University,
and none of the dates are within two weeks of April Fool's Day.
It could take a long time for this to get from the lab to consumers, but
it's encouraging.

Might have to upgrade the house wiring before charging one of these

able to do that in the "blink of an eye", fancy red and yellow milk
crate graphics not withstanding.
Perhaps when we all have cold fusion reactors in our closets. Aren't
they about ready for marketing yet? Seems like it's been a while...

Maybe we will be able to shrink the batteries down to something easy to
carry on that day hike up the mountain.
