claims of 30,000 deep recharge cycles without degradation and of course super fast charging.

Then we'd need new tires that could handle the speeds! Seems a way off, at best, but sooner or later we'll find a breakthrough.

Not sure what is the real world benefit here is. Supercapacitor has always had a fantastic life cycle. 10,000 to 30,000 cycles = so what?

Their single most weak point is the low capacity per weight / per dimension.

The article's really about a design to increase Supercapacitor density.

Of course, nanowires, therefore ignore like all the other articles.

But will they be able to generate the 1.21 gigawatts necessary to power the flux capacitor?

Of course. Since precisely 10:04 p.m. on November 12th, 1955 this has no longer been an issue.

And don't forget about Mr. Fusion... I figure once that is perfected with a good way to regulate how much energy is generated, we won't even need batteries.
