What I found most telling was that the press release and the web site didn't say anything about making capacitors, it only talked about making materials to make better capacitors. There are lots of system problems to work through with new materials to get a full solution. Mike On April 3, 20

Model S has 7000 Li cells. The energy/power density of caps is still far from equal to Li-ion cells. However, caps passed first muster with Elon Musk, he started graduate work at Stanford into caps for EV propulsion but left school to work on the internet as a more promising avenue of progress. So

Hello Jan, I have contacted a company call ESMA about there capacitors that can use as the main drive power in electric vehicles back in the 80's. You can see all the data at evworld.com/library/SuperCapBus.PDF These are very large capacitor banks of which 15 of the modules will

> Yes, trolling, not a chance this will see the light of day. Perhaps, perhaps not. Musk put a thousand laptop batteries in a Tesla. Except for the leakage current issue with electrolytic capacitors, why can’t you put a thousand capacitors in an EV? I’m not claiming it’s that simple, but surel
