Paul, if you could find a written article, I also would appreciate that.
I rarely watch videos, partly because it takes too much time and partly
because I find it much easier to absorb info from reading than from
audio or video.
Thanks.

Subject: Re: [EVDL] video: World's largest lithium company mass
producing solid state batteries
Actually the article does give a reference the the information in the video.
Dongfeng Technology Center and Ganfeng Lithium Power officially signed a
contract in July 2021, the two sides discussed the demonstration and operation
cooperation of solid-state battery, and signed a demonstration and promotion
agreement on solid-state battery E70 model. It is understood that this year,
Dongfeng will take the lead to complete the solid-state battery car
announcement and complete the vehicle delivery before the Spring Festival.

That article you referenced and the video are about different developments.
The video concerns a new EV that has been announced as being available
right now in China with solid-state batteries.
This is the first time I am aware of that any vehicle has entered series
production with solid-state batteries.

Sorry, I'm not that keen on sitting through a video clip when I can read
something in 1/10 the time, so I found this:
https://news.metal.com/newscontent/101690892/Here-comes-the-solid-state-
battery-The-lithium-giant-says-it-can-be-mass-produced-and-loaded-at-any-
time/

or https://v.gd/S0Z3FF
The translation from the Chinese isn't great. I can grok most of it but
have no idea what on earth this is supposed to mean:
"can be ... loaded at any time"
"it should not be mass production in the short term. BYD does not need to
fight for eyeballs like other car companies, but pursues technologies that
can be popularized on a large scale at low cost and products that bring
tangible benefits to consumers."
I hope someone more familiar with this stuff can comment. The news piece
makes rahter extravagant claims for specific energy. Exactly what ARE
"solid state" batteries, and what *demonstrable* advantages do they offer?
I tend to be pretty skeptical about alleged battery developments. In 55
years of following EVs I've read of a LOT of "revolutionary" batteries
that
were going to give us EVs that could drive to the moon on one charge.
Most
of them never left the lab. Typically they stalled because they couldn't
be
scaled up from small, low capacity models, because they couldn't be
produced
economically, or because the developers were nothing more than shysters
looking for gullible investors. Sometimes all of the above.
