Comment on The Sodium-Ion Battery Revolution Has Started

Maybe user replaceable phone batteries are making a comeback, but with the way my phone is pretty much sealed up I wouldn’t trust myself to not break it. I’d also be leery of a third-party replacement lithium battery of unknown quality (let’s be honest, that’s what you’ll probably end up with) charging right next to my head while I sleep. Saying that as someone whose friend had a lithium battery fire with her laptop.

the argument of “why would you try to save your battery by not using it when it has the same net effect of less battery?” is pretty short-sighted.

The argument is

why try to save your phone battery when it’s critical to last the day and eventual replacement is cheap?

it’s much more important to save your car battery because you won’t miss it on normal days, you want max range available for road trips, and replacing the battery is very expensive
