[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 640678, member: 4728"] Yes there has been steady improvement in battery efficiency in the past punctuated by the occasional technology leap eg from lead acid to lithium. I would disagree with the “vastly improved“ description rather to one of a steady development of a technology once established. With lithium technology we should see even further improvements into the future but a “streets ahead“ jump, I wouldn’t bet my future on it. “Moores law” observed that the advancement of technology ( specifically for semiconductors) increased by a given factor every few years, however since 2010 there has been a noticeable slowing of this advancement. This observation when applied to lithium battery technology advancement may run into the same plateauing as has been observed in other technologies. [/QUOTE]
