Update:
About the battery thing, it appears what they're trying to do is
design high charge capacitors using graphene & carbon nanotubes.
This technology would charge faster, last longer, and ultimately
be cheaper than lithium. They've now found a cheap way to recover
graphene. The next step would be a practical manufacture of
carbon nanotubes.

Otero, could you please give a link to where you got that info? I really want to read up on it.

 

[Otero]

actually GN, a couple of sources, Gizmag was one, but I don't
recall the other for sure. I think tech box news on my yahoo.

 

[GearNut]

Ok, thank you! I will check into it further.

Biknut,
Awesome bike & videos!
I'm starting to get the bug to go electric.
Has anyone installed a Prius battery onto a bicycle yet?
-Low-

We'll all be electric soon, or wishing we were.

Today's 'Instructables' show how to build your own graphene
super capacitor. However the process for making the graphene
is based on the Wu paper,(Toyota). Students at a university
whose name I can't recall, have come up with a much simpler
and cheaper way to extract graphene from graphite using a highly
diluted solution of dish soap.

I'm sure battery technology will keep advancing at a fast pace from now on, but as far a motor bicycles are concerned it's already good enough. My electric bicycle can out ride my china girls.

I used to ride home sucking fumes at 45 miles with my 1/2 gallon tank. I can easily ride 50 plus miles now on my electric.

Of course it kinda out costs a china girl by a wee bit.
