Try 20. Hell, try 100.
But wait! There is more!
Revolutionary new battery!
Revolutionary new water from air device!
Revolutionary new...
Oh, and how do rechargeable batteries stack up to those from 3 decades ago? Care to guess?
Uh huh
And was there a single huge revolution? That was my point: clickbait
It is because of people like you that marketing has to use clickbaity titles, because you refuse to believe that technically difficult tasks take decades to achieve. Here you are, whining about clickbait, when they have pictures of a production plant they spent millions to build. The absolute scammers!
Battery tech actually has revolutionised in the past couple decades, you just haven't noticed because it's been a series of incremental changes.
Did I say that it hasn't?
Progress has been made, of course, and yes, in small incremental steps
I'm saying that the damn near daily "THERE IS A REVOLUTIONARY DISCOVERY!!!" posts are 99.9% bullshit, its all clickbait to get more money
REVOLUTIONARY ! Product now .5% more efficient than before
