Batteries are just about to get better... Graphene Batteries!

And it all started with someone scratching a graphite pencil on a piece of paper...

Will not be so soon as it is still very difficult to mass produce graphene in an economical and environmental-friendly method....

Hopefully will be soon.... I've been following this tech for a while.

Recently some South Korean researchers figured out a way to make Graphene strips... thats was a huge leap in tech...
previously researchers were only able to make them in rough bits (which are pretty useless) and they actually had to sandwitch them to make anything meaningful. Gotta say it's moving along much faster than other battery techs!

The only other alternatives we have for RC are Lithium-Air and Lithium-Sulphur.... I like the energy density of Lithium-Air but it's going to take a long while to see a product out of IBM...
