RE: Superconductors and Supercapacitors - New Discoveries with Incredible Implications

If you do some tests, it would be very useful to others if you let them know what tests you did, how you did them (exactly what you did) and how it worked out. I'd be very interested.
I think it would be a great way to increase the number of electric cars, for example, by turning roads into the batteries, so the cars would be able to draw charge while they were being driven on the roads. They'd still have to have small batteries for the last mile off the freeways, but that would revolutionize the electric vehicle industry and make it practical, eliminating the lithium shortage as a barrier to producing enough new cars, and the grid would not need to be upgraded to deliver power to charging stations, as the roads could serve as a grid. The power lines could be replaced as well, beautifying the world considerably IMHO.
It would make off grid homes very practical with an immense power storage capacity to enable windmills and solar panels and etc. to provide power when the conditions allowed, that was able to be stored in sufficient quantity to provide it for a week or two when the sun didn't shine and the wind didn't blow enough to charge the slab.
sure i agree. it's just that i have been through similar things before and it felt kinda similar. an obvious solution, easy to grasp in theory... while practically turns out to be anything but. i am thinkijg of solar roadways in particular.
have you built one of these yet? i would happily try but it's always good to have some guide, and if it's just a youtube video or some documentation by other true nerds out there.
just look at samstinehill's work on electrocultureand you know what a permission slip to start something yourself looks like. ahahahaha.
the real tinkerers need to get on this, not some amateur like me, my knowledge was merely good enough for vanlife electrics but doesn't go much beyond it.
if this is indeed a working solution then just passively charging this huge battery with a few solar panels could be way enough already until the free energy dam is finally breaking. storage is the great problem until we start tapping infinite potential on demand.
