20% efficient is fine if it gets 500 miles per charge.  The problem with this battery claim is that it is so much better than current technology, about 2 to 4 times better, that you have to be suspicious of such a fantastic claim.  I was also suspicious of the fact that they are openly selling stock on their website (red flag).  I'll have to read up on this new battery claim.  I reserve judgement. ----- Original Message ----- From: Zell, Chris To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Sent: Friday, May 12, 2006 4:45 PM Subject: RE: Betteries   Sounds interesting.  But is there any proof that this is anything except a European a stock scam?  Right on their front page they are asking people to buy shares.  I would be very skeptical of fantastic claims like these, especially when they are clearly promoting stock sales.  Having a 500 miles per charge aluminum battery would be great.  But are these people playing straight?  If it sounds too good to be true, then .........    I think the fine print on this battery tells you that it may be only 20+% efficient, unless they've improved it.  Maybe the waste heat could go to a greenhouse or something.
