Iron air battery -- too heavy for RVs, but interesting
This could be a game changer for energy storage, and it sounds like it's not just pie in the sky. I think it's too heavy for RVs, but still interesting: Wall Street Journal article

This is quite different from a Nickel Iron battery, as it uses air (oxygen) as the cathode.
It is great to see the dramatic leaps we are seeing in batteries and energy storage technology.
The other emerging technology that is more directly relevant to EVs and RVs are Solid State Lithium Metal Batteries . These will have a higher energy density, charge faster and last even longer than lithium-ion batteries.
Indeed!
Every battery tech's head is into this and it won't be surprising to have a breakthrough developments along this area.
Interesting times.
