11 Dec 2018: A new type of batteries that is supposed to be eight times better than Lithium-based batteries - at the same size - now works a room temperature, not only at temperatures above 150° Celsius. These are rechargeable batteries that use fluoride as a charge carrier. The decisive improvement is made by electrolytes, the conductive medium that transport the charge carriers between anode and cathode. The new type of batteries will need some few years to be launched at the markets.
