The Super Supercapacitor -- a battery that charges FAST

I sure hope this UCLA research can be turned into something real. Combining the high energy density of batteries with the fast charge of a capacitor would make a very compelling energy storage device for an electric vehicle.

Take a look at the 3 minute video here that spells out the basics of the research. The video headline is:

THE SUPER SUPERCAPACITOR is a Finalist in the $200,000 GE FOCUS FORWARD Filmmaker Competition. Learn more about the Competition and FOCUS FORWARD at focusforwardfilms.com
Ric Kaner set out to find a new way to make graphene, the thinnest and strongest material on earth. What he found was a new way to power the world.
