    China has had production cars with sodium ion batteries for 2 years. I wonder when scientists will build enough Freedom into them for me to buy one in America.

    That is amazing! I have just started making sodium ion battery chargers in my free time.

    The bad thing abouslt sodium ion is that traditional CC/CV charging is harsh on the cells. Optimally each cell had to be CV charged at around 97.5% of its voltage end and then slowly brought up to 100%. Apparently that is how you get the most life cycles per cell

    There was a recent e-bike company claiming to use this sort of technology but they were full of shit.

    As cool as it is I hope it doesn’t become the new hype words for investors.
