Why the "(Tesla Supplier)" remark, which is not in the original article?
CATL is the largest battery manufacturing company, supplying battery for almost every high-end devices.
"Tesla supplier" aka "world’s largest battery manufacturing company" with about 1/3rd of all battery production.
"Shenxing leverages the super electronic network cathode technology and fully nano-crystallized LFP cathode material to create a super-electronic network, which facilitates the extraction of lithium ions and the rapid response to charging signals."
Are these actual technical terms, or some sort of marketing speak?
But this is different from the 500Wh/kg Battery that was announced around 3 month ago right [0]?
Has something happened in this regard?
> super electronic network cathode
> fully nano-crystallized LFP cathode material
> second-generation fast ion ring technology
> superconducting electrolyte formula
Can someone confirm those are proper names of some recent breakthroughs in LiFePO4 manufacturing or just some marketing technobabble?
I found the concept of Grice's Maxims the other day, and it feels very relevant. Everyone is getting triggered because this fails the maxim of relation.
>Grice's four maxims of conversation, called the Gricean maxims—quantity, quality, relation, and manner.
>Be relevant — i.e., one should ensure that all the information they provide is relevant to the current exchange; therefore omitting any irrelevant information.
There seems to be no indication of the power demands of charging at this rate. I don't have the figures to do the maths but I suspect a normal household supply could not support this. Anyone?
Great, but how large and heavy is the battery? The announcement doesn't say anything about the energy density.
I hereby officially launch a new verb: I'm short on charge, I'll shenx my car for 10 minutes and I'm coming.
You heard it first on HN.
What are the chances that the new Model 3 coming out is using this?
What does 'superconducting electrolyte' even mean?
more china dependence
@dang, not only this heading is editorialized in a blatantly fanboyish manner, but there is absolutely no need to do so as CATL is literally the largest battery manufacturer and is supplier to almost everyone.
