    Does this mean the technology is impossible at current then? Or just that the company didn’t deliver?

      There are several companies making great leaps right now. It is still far from commercially viable yet.

      Which is why it seemed so far fetched for Donut to claim they had this battery without anyone knowing they were working on it. It was immediately suspicious.

      Just this company that didn’t deliver. There’s still a lot of other companies doing research for solid state battery

        Who will all have a harder time finding investor money and will meet with more skepticism as development proceeds.

        Like all other aspects of our greedy scam culture, the possibility of this new battery chemistry and some of the remaining social trust has been monetized and traded for cash to line somebody’s pockets.

        You can buy a solid state battery right now on Digikey for 5 bucks. Lithium-ceramic. They suck ass. But cool tech.

      Impossible outright? No. Not possible currently? Most definitely.
