Israel new lithium battery charge for 5 minutes driving hundreds of kilometers

  According to Forbes online report currently Tesla fast charger in 30 minutes to give the electric car battery charge lasts for 170 miles (about 274 km). If the Israel startup StoreDot reach the goal, electric vehicles can be recharged in just 5 minutes after traveling hundreds of miles.

  The only established three years of start-up company StoreDot in Wednesday's statement, Korea Electronics giant Samsung's investment sector, as well as Russia investors Roman Abramovich has invested $ 18 million. As of today, StoreDot has raised a total of $ 66 million, planned the latest financing of research and development on the application of fast-charging batteries in electric cars.

  Many companies are experimenting with different ways to improve the performance of batteries for electric vehicles. Like Tesla and Panasonic focused on the manufacture of lower-cost batteries, can make a charge to save more battery power. In addition, there are other companies and company at a shopping center parking lot set up electric car charging stations so drivers can recharge in time of need. Tiger nose Twitter dying

  Battery electric cars are the most expensive part. Based on current technology, in full charge of the battery case can continue up to 265 miles (426 kilometers). If you are using a standard charger, the most advanced battery will take several hours to fill. If you use a DC charger (a more expensive fast charger), these batteries are still needed for more than 30 minutes to fill.

  Electric current adopted a limited range because he is both slow and troublesome charge brought about by worries. In the United States, the 16.5 million new vehicles sold in the last year, only 118,000 units are electric vehicles.

  StoreDot set up in 2012 is a different way to solve the battery problems. It is developing a new lithium-ion battery, can allegedly charged in a few minutes. Theoretically, this technology can make an electric car full time comparable with the filling time.

  The company and its team of scientists had used nano-technology and new organic material, produced more rapidly than standard lithium battery charge and discharge of battery.

  Today, the StoreDot, in collaboration with several major mobile phone manufacturers, mobile phone trial on its battery. The startup's CEO duolun·meiyeduofu (Doron Myersdorf) that is expected to be a mobile phone manufacturer in commercial cooperation signed within a few quarters and will in the next year on its batteries in consumer mobile phones.

  But application in electric vehicle research and development may take a long time. Even if all goes well, the StoreDot battery for at least five years would be unlikely to complete its commercialization of electric vehicles. In addition, the variables are also arising in that period can be very large. Transplantation of cell technology from the lab to the commercial market is a very difficult task, is also unclear, whether vehicle manufacturers are interested in StoreDot products.
